Abstract:Research on chemical composition, microstructure and technical basis of the sherds excavat-ed in the Southern Song and Yuan strata of Laohudong Kiln recently found near Wansongling at thefoot of Fenghuangshan Hill in Hangzhou has been conducted. The mechanism of forming jade-like ap-pearance has been explained. The derived chemical composition data for the bodies and glazes of thesherds from Laohudong Kiln and those of the sherds of Jiaotanxia Guan wares, the sherds collected onthe ground near Wansongling and the sherds of the so-called handed down Ge ware and Ge ware typeporcelain excavated in Yuandadu were processed by correspondence analysis. A comparison amongtheir microstructures was made. It is shown that the Southern Song stratum of Laohudong Kiln maybe Xiuneisi Guan wares and it is further deduced that the so-called Ge ware type porcelain may be theproducts fired at Laohudong Kiln in Yuan period. Therefore, the two Southern Song Guan Kilnsrecorded in a book “Tan Zhai Bi Heng” have all been found. The suggestion about kiln site where theso-called handed down Ge ware and Ge ware type porcelain of Yuandadu were fired has also been putforward.
