Abstract
Undoubtedly, the history of ceramics in the Far East is largely dominated by events in China, which throughout the ages have provided a source of cultural dynamism for the whole region. It was natural for potters in the vicinity to be greatly affected by the advanced Chinese standards in design and technology, and this overlap had a fruitful effect that resulted in richness and vitality of the original styles. China's advanced ceramics do not belong to a prehistoric culture that lacks aesthetic values and has nothing to do with the next technological development. The improvement in production processes and clarity of shape are the most important features of the Chinese style in ceramics. Gradual development in production, glue, fire skills established very accurate production. Thus, until the time of the Tang Dynasty (7-10 AD), porcelain rivaled precious metals. This advanced development reached an impressive peak in the following production of the Sanj dynasty porcelain utensils (10-13 AD) which, in the opinion of many critics, touched the summit of art.Porcelain began to take its modern place among the forms of ceramics, excluding other types of ceramics due to its richness, diversity in form and design. Ming and Cheng porcelain utensils (14-17m) and (17-20m) relied mainly on relatively standard materials.By the end of the eighteenth century - also - Chinese exports of ceramics had become designed and decorated according to European needs. Repeated parallel waves of influence came to leave their mark on Islamic ceramics in the Near East. Which (the Near East) is a competitor to China in technical excellence. Also found some effects that indicate trade to Japan, Indochina, and the archipelago of Southeast Asia, then to the west to India and the Arab lands, even to the south to the east coast in Africa.
