Wuzhou Kiln is an ancient famous kiln site located in the Jinhua and Quzhou areas of western Zhejiang.It was mainly under the jurisdiction of Wuzhou during the Sui and Tang dynasties,hence its name.The kiln industry in this region has a very long history;it was an important distribution area for proto porcelain during the pre-Qin period and evolved into mature porcelain during the Eastern Han period.Therefore,it is traditionally believed that Wuzhou Kiln began production in the Eastern Han period,developed during the Six Dynasties,and flourished during the Tang,Song,and Yuan dynasties,extending into the Ming dynasty.The site of the kiln is mainly located in the Jinqu Basin,which generally runs in a northeast-southwest direction,becoming an important passage connecting northeastern Zhejiang with western regions such as Jiangxi and Hunan.As a result,the landscape is quite complex,with various kiln technologies interacting,stimulating,and merging,ultimately forming a porcelain handcraft industry type with its own characteristics.The overall product appearance primarily focuses on the production of celadon,while also including black glaze porcelain and kiln-altered opalescent glaze porcelain.Additionally,during the Song period,Blue-greenish white porcelain was also produced.Therefore,Wuzhou Kiln serves as an important carrier for cultural exchange between the provinces of Zhejiang,Fujian,and Jiangxi,and even between northern and southern cultures.
