　　【PART1】Historical Heritage

　　Our country,China, is so named because of ceramics (a synonym of china). The history of ceramics ofChinais almost an epitome of the history of Chinese civilization. Ever since Han and Tang Dynasty, the wise and gallant ancient Chinese people, laden with silk, jade and exquisite pottery, started from the then political, economic and cultural center of Chang’an to go westward by way of the Mediterranean coast, and they finally blazed a route that connects Asia and Europe—Silk Way, ushering in the history of friendly exchanges between the two Continents. As the startingpoint of Silk Way,Luoyanghas, for quite a long time of period, been a world-famous city, renowned as “The Imperial City Blessed with Holy Water”. On this expanse of land of civilization, numerous people worked hard and tenaciously to build the prominent Ceramic Culture with diligence and wisdom. The exquisite potteries are just like the bright stars in the sky that have drawn endless attention and admiration from the world.

　　Time flies, bringing tremendous changes to the world. However, the Ceramic Culture is passed on through one generation after another till today and gains great renewal through the passage of time. Today, in response to the rapid development of science and technology, meidiya emerges inLuoyangand the people of meidiya take it as their own duty to pass on the ancient ceramic culture and produce ceramic sanitary wares that integrates both cutting-edge technology and traditional techniques…
