Abstract

Pottery is an important symbol of the Neolithic age, and it has become the first civilization product formed by using natural materials through various chemical changes. In the early stage of human beings, most of the pottery products were made of red color. At the beginning, most of them were made of symmetrical vessels, coffins and terracotta figures, which were also made into red tiles for building components. "Red ceramic brick" in arts and crafts, sculpture, architecture and other aspects, through thousands of years of development and transformation, with its unique charm, still becomes one of the main materials of modern art and architecture, presenting numerous classic works. At the same time, it has opened up an infinitely wide new field for mankind to make full use of natural resources, and has also promoted the development of economy, culture, spirit, art and architecture.
