The Exquisiteness of Peony Porcelain



I recently read an article which argued that inner beauty and depth of personality are better indicators for judging beauty than physical appearance. These sentiments moved me, and reminded me of the appeal of peony porcelain, which lies not only in the immediate effect of its flawless white jade-like surface, but also in the complex variance of its different shades of gloss, belying its delicate production process.[Photo: CRIENGLISH.COM]
