Remarkable celadon professor succeeds in combining modern and ancient

Hong Shude (L) and his colleague Chen Yifei discuss about designs of the emblazonry at his studio in Xiamen, southeast China's Fujian province, April 16, 2015. Hong, a professor at Xiamen Academy of Arts and Design of Fuzhou University, has dedicated himself to celadon since the 1990s. In 2008, he succeeded in firing a kind of celadon which combines modern design elements with the ancient craft of Tingxi Klin, an important representative of celadon in south China during the Song Dynasty (960-1279).[Photo/Xinhua]
