The story has been handed down that the brothers were both Longquan province potters, and each developed a different technique, with the older brother making a Ge Ware crackle finish, and the younger brother developing the Longquan Celadon Green Ware. Both techniques share common effects found in Guan Ware. Both are often called Green Ware, and both vase are attributed to the Song Dynasty. It is notable in that the surface of the Ge Ware vase is decorated in a heavily crackled glaze, randomly crazed by a network of double crackle lines of various colors.
