The color yellow, pronounced as “huang” in Chinese, is a homonym of the Chinese character meaning “emperor”, symbolizing supreme authority and royalty in ancient China.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911), yellow-glazed ceramics continued this tradition of regal symbolism, blending with hues of green, purple, red and more to create a diverse array of courtly styles.
