Craftsmen of Chinese porcelain make every effort to realize their Chinese dreams by displaying the elements of traditional Chinese culture through their delicate works of art.

Porcelain, also called 'fine china', featuring delicate textures, pleasing colors, and refined sculptural techniques, was one of the earliest artworks introduced to the western world through the Silk Road.

Produced in the form of bowls, cups, tea sets, vases and jeweled cases, Chinese porcelain has been hugely popular among both Chinese and foreign customers for centuries.

This level of popularity has led to many Chinese people dedicating themselves towards making porcelain works of art.

Li Xuewu, the Chairman of the Luoyang Peony Porcelain Corporation, created particular porcelain artworks featuring patterns of Luoyang peony flowers at the end of 2009.

According to Li, it is incredibly hard for someone like himself who has no professional porcelain background to create satisfactory products; especially in the beginning.
