Ru Kiln, Ruzhou of Henan Province, has a high reputation for its exquisite porcelain, which is as blue as sky and as smooth as jade. Ding Kiln, Quyang of Hebei Province, was the most renowned kiln in Song Dynasty. Jun Kiln, Yuzhou of Henan Province is famous for its magical colour change, ie. single colour turns into multi-colour after baking in the kiln. Jun Kiln is for imperial use at the time of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty. In Tangshan of Hebei Province, production of Guzhici (Bone China) includes two baking processes: high temperature plain baking and low temperature glaze baking, that lead to high brightness, transparency and delicate porcelain.
