"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"

Previous to Shiwan archaeological discoveries, the Yangjiang wares, along with the "moon white" wares, were traditionally regarded as the earliest Shiwan wares. They are distinctive in their blue and white flambe glaze which a strong local oral tradition claims is descended from the brilliant flambe wares of Henan's Jun ware of the Song dynasty. Yangjiang type glazes were made throughout the Ming and Qing dynasties and are an important feature of modern Shiwan wares as well.
