'''Batang black pottery''' (巴塘黑陶) refers to the ceramic tradition associated with the Batang region in present-day Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, western Sichuan. The pottery is produced within the cultural sphere of Kham (Khams), one of the major Tibetan cultural regions. The tradition is characterized by hand-built vessel forms, burnishing, unglazed surfaces, and reduction firing that produces a black or dark gray coloration. Batang black pottery reflects a localized ceramic system distinct from high-fired stoneware and porcelain traditions of central and eastern China. | '''Batang black pottery''' (巴塘黑陶) refers to the ceramic tradition associated with the Batang region in present-day Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, western Sichuan.
