Introduction
Coral red is one of the traditional colored porcelain glazes, which is similar to the red color of coral, hence the name. This vessel is hand-drawn, and innovative glaze carving techniques are used on the inside and outside to present various patterns, embodying the visual and humanistic connotations of blooming flowers, wealth, joy and auspiciousness. Because the traditional red series symbolizes prosperity, auspiciousness, and joy, it is often painted on glaze; however, this vessel is made of carved glaze, so it has both traditional and innovative style characteristics.
