CANTON PORCELAIN Canton/ese porcelain is the characteristic style of ceramic ware decorated in Guanzhou, the capital of Guangdong, and (prior to 1842) the sole leal port for export of Chinese goods to Europe. As such, it was one of the major forms of export ware produced in China in the 18th and 20th centuries. Typically, the export ware was made, glazed and fired at Jingdezhen but decorated with enamels in Guangzhou (anglicized to Canton) for export to the West via the Thirteen Factories of the Canton system.
