Lǔshān

Lushan lies east of the Funiu Mountains, in a district known for its old ceramic kilns. At Duandian, potters began firing wares in the Tang and became celebrated for dark glazes marked with pale splashes of colour. They made vessels as well as ceramic drums, fragments of which have been found at the kiln site. Production continued through the Song and Jin, with a wider range of glazes and styles; pottery remains from the Yuan and Ming are also found in the kiln area.
