Luoyang Sancai Ceramics

Glazes that flow into colour. Luoyang’s Tang-style sancai tradition connects familiar museum forms with a continuing craft.

Sancai is known for its distinctive glazed surfaces, often combining amber, green and cream. Exploring the making process adds a material story to the horses, camels and other forms associated with Tang art.

A closer encounter
