and had antique dealers as early as the seventh century. The finest ceramic pieces
were produced by the Imperial kilns and the best art by Imperial workshops. The
imperial porcelain factory at Jingdezhen was established during the fifteenth century.
Pieces made for an emperor would be inscribed with an Imperial seal or reign mark.

civilizations. Entire museums and books are dedicated to preserving and cataloging
