About Jade Porcelain

Jade porcelain originates from Dehua, Fujian Province, and is renowned for its smooth, delicate finish. The term “jade porcelain” derives from its jade-like texture and snow-white coloration. It exhibits slight translucency and a lustrous sheen under light, resulting in a semi-transparent, crystal-clear radiance reminiscent of a piece of jade.
