While previously mentioned, it is helpful to revisit the specific techniques that were used to produce a turquoise-blue style glaze in the Ming era. While not as common as other colors, some Ming potters achieved beautiful and unique shades of turquoise blue, showcasing their technical skill and experimental approach to glaze development.
We touched on underglaze red earlier, but a deeper look at the specific use of copper red during the Yuan is valuable. The use of copper to achieve red tones in underglaze decoration was one of the most technically challenging techniques mastered by Yuan Dynasty potters, and the difficulty in the production of this colour makes surviving examples of Yuan period red pottery especially valuable.
