The era of the porcelain kiln is roughly from the Sui to the Tang Dynasty. It has not been used for a long time, and the types of furniture are small, but the technical level is high. The porcelain kiln site is the earliest discovery of Shanxi region, filling the gap of related research, which is of great significance in the research of ancient Chinese ceramics.
