Celadon refers to a family of pottery characterised by a pale green jade-like glaze, originating in China during the Shang dynasty and reaching artistic heights during the Song dynasty.

Celadon pieces are crafted from high-fired porcelain or stoneware, featuring iron oxide in the glaze which reacts in a reduction kiln to produce the characteristic green colour.

Authentic pieces display characteristic crazing in the glaze, weight consistent with traditional throwing methods, and often feature carved or incised floral and scroll motifs beneath the translucent surface.

A celadon lamp provides a subtle injection of colour and texture, pairing effectively with neutral palettes, dark wooden furniture, and patterned textiles to add classical balance to a room.

Dust the ceramic body gently with a dry microfiber cloth and avoid abrasive cleaning agents to protect the integrity of the glaze, while ensuring the electrical components are periodically inspected by a professional.
