"Shiwan art does not stand apart from the common people, as do many works from the better known kilns of Dehua and Jingdezhen, as perfected sytylized intellectual objects. Possibly that is one reason why the Shiwan products have rarely been appreciated by the scholars and intelligentsia. Perhaps this deficit can be rectified by accepting the work for what it is rather than be invidious comparisons against classical art. It speaks its own message and that is unique"

This topic for Shiwan examples in imitation of Sancai glaze

A rich variety of glaze colors is one of the special features of Shiwan ceramic ware. The most common Shiwan ceramic glaze colors can be classified into five categories, monochrome, flambe and crystalized, mixed colored, and polychrome, biscuit as well as decoration. The use of these glaze colors on different types of Shiwan ceramic wares form a distinctive regional style.
