The patterns include daring dragons, elegant cranes and beautiful roses, among many other plants and animals. Kids will have fun identifying all of the wildlife and mythical creatures painted on the ancient ceramic and learning the meaning of each symbol. For example: Dragons, the most sacred animal in Chinese culture, symbolize good luck and power. Deer represent good luck. One hundred deer is a wish for peace and happiness. An art form for many millennia, Chinese ceramics have been shipped around the world since the establishment of trade routes.

This beautiful book will provide entertainment for kids and their parents—and both will come away having learned something new!
Download or read book A Prince and His Porcelain Cup written by and published by Shanghai Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautifully illustrated, bilingual Chinese children's book tells the classic story of a little Chinese prince. It tells the tale of a little emperor who learned to appreciate the fine art of porcelain while recreating his mother's favorite cup. Porcelain evolved in China over 1200 years ago, and this book explains how it's made and its importance in Chinese history. Written in English and Chinese, this beautiful story follows the young emperor's journey from being ousted from the palace to his time in a ceramics workshop and to his victorious return to the palace as emperor. After admiring a famous painting of A Hen and Her Chicks, he designs a small porcelain cup with a rooster representing his brave father, a hen symbolizing his kind mother, and chicks that signified the young prince. Known as the Chicken Cup, this Ming Dynasty piece was recently sold at auction for an unprecedented $36 million in 2014. The Chinese words for chicken and lucky sounds like Ji which is why the chicken motif is thought to be a symbol of good luck and prosperity.
