景泰藍(lán)(Jingtailan)藝術(shù)是雕刻、繪畫和塑瓷(porcelainmaking)的獨(dú)特融合。據(jù)說景泰藍(lán)于元朝時(shí)誕生于北京，現(xiàn)存最古老的景泰藍(lán)就造于元朝。但是景泰藍(lán)在明朝時(shí)經(jīng)歷了巨大的變革。那時(shí)，人們認(rèn)為景泰藍(lán)最為復(fù)雜。然而，由于熔銅技術(shù) (copper-melting techniques)的偉大發(fā)明，景泰藍(lán)于清朝時(shí)達(dá)到頂峰。用景泰藍(lán)能夠制成大件物品，如花瓶、其他器皿和裝飾品，也能制成小物品，如耳環(huán)、手鐲或筷子。新中國(guó)成立以來，涌現(xiàn)出了很多新品種的景泰藍(lán)，在國(guó)內(nèi)外享有很高的聲譽(yù)。
