The origin of its name is closely related to porcelain: during the Jingde period of Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty (1004-1007 AD), the exquisite imperial porcelain fired here was praised by Zhenzong. , the inscription on the porcelain was "Jingdezhen Year", so "the world called Jingdezhen", Jingdezhen got its name from this, and became famous all over the world. For thousands of years, Jingdezhen ceramic art has become a dazzling pearl in the art treasure house of China and the world.

White as jade, as thin as paper, as bright as a mirror, and as loud as a chime, this is a true portrayal of Jingdezhen porcelain. Historically, Jingdezhen's artistic ceramics were made based on pictures and patterns designed by court painters or based on excellent patterns inherited from the folk. Specialized painters copied them onto embryonic porcelain and then fired them. Due to its high quality, Jingdezhen was the production base for royal porcelain during the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. Porcelain has developed rapidly since its creation. Especially in the Ming Dynasty, Jingdezhen has become the center of the porcelain industry in the country. The porcelain produced is not only favored by the Chinese people, but also traveled across the oceans and was also warmly welcomed overseas.
