Celadon is a type of ceramic distinguished by its translucent pale green, blue-green or grey-green glaze. First perfected in China over a thousand years ago, celadon became highly prized throughout Asia and later Europe for its subtle elegance and refined appearance. Antique celadon porcelain and stoneware are admired for their soft lustre, understated beauty and exceptional craftsmanship, making them enduring favourites among collectors.
