Porcelain Figurine

Porcelain is a general term for material that many Oriental figurines are made from.  Nearly all ceramic ware that is white and translucent is made of porcelain.  Chinese porcelain is usually made by combining several materials:  kaolin, pottery stone, feldspar, and quartz.  Porcelain is a very good material when it comes to delicate figurines like the Oriental lady.  It can be painted over in careful detail to create a very attractive piece of art work!
