Most of the existing enamel colors were fired between Kangxi and Qianlong. During the Kangxi period, most of them painted motifs on plain fetuses, and then filled all other places with color, with gorgeous effects. During the Yongzheng period, the domestic enamel material was successfully made, and the production of enamel color went further. At this time, the white space on the porcelain increased, and began to be accompanied by poetry, combining poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing with four traditional Chinese cultures to highlight the elegance of the porcelain style. Qianlong expanded the range of themes, such as the appearance of Western style decorations. Both Yongzheng and Qianlong personally guided the firing of enamel colored porcelain, and so far many such comments have been kept in the archives of the Palace Building Office of the Qing Dynasty.
