The Chien ware was undoubtedly first manufactured in the region of Chien-ou (formerly Kien-ning Fu) situated on the Min River approximately 160 miles from Foochow. The shifting of the manufacture of this ware to the present age-old kiln sites far removed from Chien-ou was very likely due to the presence of a more ample supply of the peculiar kind of clay in the Chien-yang region from which the ware was made. Example: Reconnaissance of the China coast opposite Taiwan conducted by aircraft of the US Seventh Fleet on 11 and 13 April revealed the airfield at Amoy to be operational, while airfields at Foochow and Swatow were non-operational. The field at Chien-ou (inland about 100 miles northwest of Foochow) had been extended since August and was in operational condition except for a rockpile in one turning cirlce. No unusual shipping concentration was observed in any of the major harbors. Anti-aircraft fire was encountered over Foochow, Amoy, and Swatow, but none was encountered over Chien-ou.
