Abstract: The chemical compositions for 44 bodies and glazes of Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain in different time periods were treated by statistical analysis. According-to the evolution law of the batch formula of bodies and glazes, it is found that the process of development of Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain is divisible into three periods. Based on the discriminant founctions for the chemical compositions of bodies and glazes, the dynasty of samples can be determined.
