Sancai pottery

Sancai pottery is a traditional Chinese ceramic style from the Tang Dynasty (618–907 AD), characterized by its vibrant, three-color glaze—typically amber, green, and cream. These glazed ceramics often feature intricate shapes and decorative motifs, such as animals, figures, and architectural elements. The glaze is applied through a layering process, creating a glossy, colorful finish that enhances the visual appeal. Sancai ware was used for both everyday items and ceremonial objects, reflecting the artistic sophistication and cultural richness of the period. Its distinctive colors and craftsmanship have made Sancai pottery highly valued by collectors and historians today.
