Chinese ceramic ware is an artform that has been developing since the dynastic periods. China is richly endowed with the raw materials needed for making ceramics. The first types of ceramics were made about 11,000 years ago, during the Palaeolithic era. Chinese Ceramics range from construction materials such as bricks and tiles, to hand-built pottery vessels fired in bonfires or kilns, to the sophisticated porcelain wares made for the imperial court.

A. "The dragon was often used as a symbol of imperial power in China; from at least the 14th century, five-clawed dragons were used in ceramics and the decorative arts to represent the emperor, and four-clawed dragons, such as the one chasing a pearl on the interior of this dish, appear on objects that were intended to be used as imperial gifts. The high quality of this dish and its decoration suggest that it may have made for distribution by the court. " hi, one of the paragraph mention it... hope it helps abit

A. I always drink espresso black. If you're making it by machine, it only makes 1-2 shots @ a time, so there's no reason for using a pot (I drink it from porcelain cups, though). If you're using a stove top Moka pot, I guess you could transfer it to a porcelain pot for show, but I see no reason to. & it's "espresso", no X.
