Potters mold dreams in China's porcelain capital

NANCHANG: When Ekrem Yazici took a 16-hour slow train for the first time in 2009 from Shanghai to Jingdezhen, a city he had always wanted to visit, he saw his dream life.

'I arrived at about 4 a.m. and waited for the sun to rise. When the city gradually awoke, a magic scene unfolded in front of me. I saw a passerby holding a large blue and white pattern vase and another hauling a load of porcelain blanks,' recalled the 38-year-old Turkish ceramic artist.
