The sky‑blue glaze of Ru ware traces back to Emperor Chai Rong of the Later Zhou Dynasty. He decreed the timeless aesthetic: “Capture the hue of the sky when rain clears and clouds part.” This imperial vision of celestial blue was inherited by Northern‑Song Ru ware, forming the soul of the finest Song porcelain.
When craftsmen consulted him on the glaze colour for imperial porcelain, Chai Rong gazed at the sky after rain had cleared and clouds parted, writing the timeless imperial edict:
When rain fades and clouds break, paint this hue for ages to come.
He meant that the pure celestial blue glimpsed between dispersing clouds after rainfall should define imperial porcelain. The Chai Kiln thus set the standard for sky‑blue glaze, later praised as:
Blue as heaven, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, resonant as a chime.
