Abstract To explore the kiln origins and technical characteristics of Jin-Yuan period oil-spot porcelain excavated from the Jining Road ancient city site in Inner Mongolia, this study systematically analyzed 20 oil-spot porcelain samples from the site and 10 comparative samples from Linfen Kiln in Shanxi Province using wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy and ultra-depth microscopic analysis. The results reveal significant technical differentiation: Type I samples exhibit low Al2O3 and high SiO2 content in bodies, with chemical composition and microstructure characteristics highly consistent with Linfen Kiln products. The morphological features of iron-rich crystals and elliptical ZrSiO4 crystals in the glaze layer further confirm their Linfen Kiln origin. Type II samples display high Al2O3 and low SiO2 content in bodies, resembling Jiexiu Kiln's clay formula, though their precise source requires further investigation. This research demonstrates a “dual-source supply” pattern for oil-spot porcelain at the Jining Road site, confirming Linfen Kiln's crucial role as a ceramic supplier along the Steppe Silk Road, while providing scientific evidence for understanding kiln technology transmission and ceramic trade networks during the Jin-Yuan period.
