Abstract: This research investigates the integration of Dunhuang ornamental motifs into contemporary ceramic design, with the objective of achieving both cultural in-heritance and artistic innovation. Employing a qualitative methodology that combines iconographic analysis, design experimentation, and comparative evaluation, the study examines how traditional visual symbols—such as lotus blossoms, flying apsaras, and cloud patterns—can be recontextualized within ceramic forms. The results demonstrate that the reinterpretation of Dunhuang patterns not only enriches the visual language and symbolic depth of ceramic art, but also expands its potential for cross-cultural communication and con-temporary design application. The study concludes that the systematic incorpo-ration of Dunhuang motifs provides a viable pathway for balancing heritage preservation with creative transformation, thereby offering theoretical and practical insights into the sustainable development of ceramic design.
