紋章瓷 Family Clan Crest 紋章瓷是廣彩的 個重要類型。由於廣彩很⼤程度上是因應西⽅⼈⼝味和要求，再經中國畫師製作的產品，因此作品的主題和圖樣很多都來⾃於西⽅客⼈提供的設計。其中紋章瓷就是把家族或所屬組織的徽章繪畫在瓷 碟上，是中西合璧的最佳例⼦。 Family Clan Crest is an important genre of Guangcai art.

The palette of Yuet Tung porcelains cover around 20 colors, among which red and emerald predominate. The painted motifs are embellished with black or gilt outlines which lend a compact and glittering effect to the artistic composition, resembling brocade woven from gold and colorful thread, such as the famous “Canton Rose in Medallion design”. Themes for Yuet Tung’s colored glazed porcelain include mainly scenery, flowers, birds, figures, insects and fish.
Canton Rose is the most iconic pattern of Guangcai art. Porcelain artists would draw the roses from scratch. By employing a specific technique, the artists add fine lines and colour shades to create vivid images of the rose tips.

porcelain plates with painted decoration of cabbages and butterflies
According to archive records, cabbage patterns have appeared in Guangcai porcelain art since 1870. In Chinese, the word “cabbage” (Bak Choi) sounds like “prosperity” (Fat Choi). With the red lines and golden ground, porcelain plates with painted cabbages and butterflies symbolize prosperity and longevity.

Sing Hallelujah to the Lord is one of the latest Christian porcelains created by Tao Fong Shan’s artist in residence Lam Duen Shan Ming for Tao Fong Porcelain Workshop. Wishing all believers to often remind themselves of the reasons to be hopeful and joyful in Christ in their daily life as they are given their daily bread at table; to sing Hallelujah under whatever circumstances: To sing with laughter to bring joy to our neighbors at the best of times; to sing with tears to shame the wicked at the worst of times.
