Meaningful Cultural Gift "Sancai" translates to "Three Colors," but the technique actually uses mineral oxides like copper (green), iron (yellow/brown), and cobalt (blue) to create a spectacular glazing effect. Fired at high temperatures, the glaze flows and blends naturally, creating a unique, unpredictable, and vibrant appearance. Handmade with Care: Quality You Can Trust In Tang culture, horses were vital for warfare, trade (Silk Road), and transport. A glazed horse was not just an object; it was a symbol of status and prosperity. The glossy finish is achieved through a complex double-firing process. The result is a striking, glass-like surface that reflects light beautifully, changing its appearance depending on your room's lighting.
