The Shouzhou Kiln in China's Anhui Province embodies the dialogue between earth and fire. Its yellow glaze is born from the sediments of the Huai River, as warm and mellow as morning light on sandbanks; its purple glaze comes from the mineral-rich rocks of Mount Zijin, as deep and serene as twilight on the hills. Together, these colors reveal how local soil and stone shape the spirit of ceramics, carrying forward a cultural memory etched into both river and mountain.
