Gems from Kilns: Shiwan Ceramics from the Macao Museum of Art Collection

Divided into four major themes including “Shiwan Ceramic Roof Ridge” “Shiwan Pottery,” “Floral And Faunal Imagery” and “Shiwan Figurines”, the exhibition features 123 pieces/sets of Shiwan ceramic treasures, tracing the journey of Shiwan ceramics from a regional craft to one engaging in international dialogues, and allowing viewers to experience the Lingnan legend forged by earth and fire. Since the mid-Ming dynasty, Shiwan ceramics are characterized by vibrant glazes and unique techniques that blend pottery craftsmanship introduced by immigrants from the Central Plains with local Lingnan culture.
