Visitor Search

There are two visitors with interesting searches 1) visitor from P.J. Selangor searching for “chinese ceramic shop in old klang road”. The Chinese ceramic shop in old klang road that I know was demolished and it is near the market. The business was shifted to a new place at Jalan Kuchai Lama, opposite Full Gospel Assembly Church and years later I am not able to tell where the business went.
2) Visitor from Saint Louis Missouri searching for “ming dynasty famille jaune ware”. What is famille jaune and when it was first made? From when did this make of Chinese porcelain get the foreign name like famille rose, famille noire, famille verte, famille jaune and other names with the word famille which I may have left out. Famille rose, famille noire, famille verte, famille jaune are overglaze enamel items. Beautiful crafted items are traded with overseas including yellow colour glazed which is a royal colour and cannot be used by commoner. This colour is also used by overseas royalties and was prepared by the Emperor of China at that time. I have not heard about famille jaune of the ming dynasty and I do not know how famille jaune of the ming dynasty look like.
