The views about the provenance of Sancai glazed pottery discovered in Bohai State are distinct. The purpose of this research is to measure the Sancai glazed pottery samples excavated in Longhai royal tomb of Bohai state by X-ray fluorescence, and then comparative analyse the compositions data of this research with Tang Sancai from the Huangye kiln, Huangbao kiln and Liquanfang kiln in Tang Dynasty in the Central Region of China. The results show that chemical composition of the body and the glaze applied in this research is different from the samples of the above three main kilns in the central region of China. Therefore these samples excavated in Longhai royal tomb of Bohai state are presumably produced in Bohai state locally.
