Snow Scenic Eggshell Thin Vase 雪景薄胎蛋型瓷瓶

Thin-bodied porcelain is a renowned traditional craft product from Jingdezhen, also known as "Buotai Porcelain" or "Eggshell Porcelain". The walls of this porcelain are only 0.5 millimeters thick. It is said to be "as thin as a cicada's wing, as bright as glass, and as light as a floating cloud."

Jingdezhen has a long history of producing thin-bodied porcelain. As early as the 10th century, Yingqing porcelain fired in Jingdezhen had already achieved the level of being thin and lightweight.

薄胎瓷是景德镇久负盛名的特种工艺传统产品，又名“脱胎瓷”、“蛋壳瓷”，胎壁只有0.5毫米。 薄似蝉翼，亮如玻璃，轻若浮云。 

景德镇烧造薄胎瓷历史悠久，公元十世纪烧制的影青瓷，有的就达到了薄而轻巧的水平。 薄胎瓷的制作工艺从配料、拉坯、利坯（修坯）、上釉到绘画、烧制，须经四十多道工序，全部采用手工，分三次烧成。尤以利坯和艺术加工最为精细。
