Han purple is a type of artificial pigment found in China between 500 BC and AD 220. It was used in the decoration of the Terracotta Army. Han purple and Han blue (also called Chinese purple and Chinese blue) are synthetic barium copper silicate pigments that were developed in China at least 2,000 years ago. Han purple and Han blue were used in ancient and imperial China from the Western Zhou period (1207-771 BC) until the end of the Han dynasty (c. 220 AD).
