What is Ru porcelain?
Official Ru pottery is a famous and extremely rare type of Chinese Song Dynasty pottery produced for a brief period for the imperial court around 1100. Many of the Ru ceramics possess a distinctive pale blue glaze, called a “duck’s egg,” “like the blue of the sky in a clearing among the clouds after rain,” according to one medieval expert, and devoid of any decoration, although their colors vary up to a green celadon.
