My system is not decent

Chapter 1018
Finding that Chen Wenzhe listened carefully, the two old men spoke more vigorously.

It turned out that Chen Wenzhe really hadn't noticed the various signs of aging on the surface of the porcelain.

He just wanted to make signs of aging, and to a certain extent.

As for how these ageings come about, Chen Wenzhe has at most a half-knowledge.

Just say winter melon frost, which is a phenomenon of natural weathering of ancient porcelain for thousands of years.

Try to wash the ancient porcelain and put it in a closed glass cover. After two months, you can feel a layer of frost on the porcelain surface.

Old imitations also have winter melon frost, which is yellowish, not very old in the kiln, and extremely fire-resistant, which is different from the white winter melon frost of ancient porcelain, which is also an important feature for judging ancient porcelain.

Let’s talk about tofu flower, which is used by the predecessors as a metaphor for the shape of the glaze and tire, which is split due to aging, similar to the flower shape produced by salted tofu.

In the words of the two old men, this trace of aging cannot be imitated.

Of course, ordinary people can't notice this, because if you want to see this feature, you need to use a magnifying glass of more than eighty times to observe clearly.

When it comes to tofu flower, one cannot fail to mention the white cloud pattern.

This aging trace refers to the same phenomenon as tofu flower.

This kind of white moiré is a sign of aging caused by external influences. Most people really don't know it. This is because it will be transformed into cracks if it continues to be exposed to wind and sun.

There are no straight lines at the edges of the white moiré, and they are all naturally curved and unclear.

What Lao Zhou said still cannot be imitated.

This Chen Wenzhe definitely doesn't believe it, why can't I imitate you and research all kinds of details?
Chen Wenzhe can only sigh with emotion now, there is still another mountain.

He didn't notice these details before, so the porcelain he imitated was full of flaws in these details.

Thinking of this, Chen Wenzhe looked at the two old men differently.

He was looking at the high imitation porcelain placed next to him, as if they were full of flaws now?
There was a wry smile on Chen Wenzhe's face, he was also an ignorant person.

The antique porcelain, which was so beautiful no matter how you look at it, has now become an ugly duckling.

However, the ugly duckling is a real swan. Even if it has not become beautiful now, it will become beautiful one day.

"You porcelains are missing a layer of floating wax!"

Lao Zhou finally wanted to see him, and after talking so much, he wasn't picking on the thorns.

And Chen Wenzhe really couldn't say anything, because what he said was true.

Sloated wax also refers to century-old wax, which refers to the waxy substance left by organic matter polluting porcelain for a long time.

Slippery when dry, astringent when hot and humid.

Unearthed for a long time, it takes half an hour to soak in water to feel the astringency.

When the weather is dry, touching it is like touching a child's buttocks, with a very delicate feeling.

Wax is an important basis for judging ancient porcelain.

The imitation works are not slippery, which can identify a clue.

As far as I can tell, I can't say much about this kind of thing, because Chen Wenzhe's imitation is good enough, even if there is no floating wax, it is just a fly in the ointment, and you can't say that these porcelains are modern works of art just because of this.

So, after clicking Chen Wenzhe's sentence, Lao Zhou directly changed the topic.

"Speaking of scams, I really know something about them. I'm definitely not as thorough as Boss Chen in researching the characteristics of scams, but I've seen a lot of scams."

Back-to-the-pit goods refer to ancient porcelains that were unearthed in the early years and were played by people for a long time, leaving many traces and a lot of information. After that, they were buried in the soil, and after several years, they appeared again.

This kind of porcelain has many characteristics and contains a lot of information, so it is worth spending a lot of effort to study and explore.

It's a pity that there are very few people who even know the term Huikenghuo, so how can we talk about excavating and sorting out the cultural heritage left by our ancestors?

"Haha! I knew it was back to kiln goods!" Lao Li said with a smile.

Back kiln goods refer to ancient porcelain that shows signs of being processed again in the kiln. This kind of porcelain must be unique and precious.

The common ones are: kiln repair.

This kind of porcelain is usually a complete set, and one or two of them have obvious signs of going back to the kiln, and the color difference is obvious.

For this kind of porcelain that is not fired well, or has defects or defects after leaving the kiln, returning to the kiln is the best choice.

It is like supplementing health powder, which is repaired with porcelain powder after the porcelain is defective, so it is called "supplementing health powder".

Or go into the kiln to bake again, but because the temperature is not high, it is still called tonic powder.

If it is repaired at high temperature, it is called "kiln repair" or "kiln repair".

It can be seen that the tonic powder is not an ordinary crude product.

Tonic powder is common in ceramics before the Ming Dynasty, most of which are display porcelains, but it has not been seen since the Qing Dynasty.

Of course, in addition to these, there is also glaze repair, which refers to the second time to enter the kiln to hang the glaze.

The difference from Hui kiln is that it has a single purpose, it is only for hanging glaze, not for repairing, nor is it a complete set.

It is very difficult for people far away from the kiln to repair the glaze, and it is not ordinary people who can do it.

Porcelain that needs to be reglazed is definitely not ordinary porcelain, and it is natural not to be underestimated when encountering it.

With the theory of mending glazing, there are also mending texts and paintings.

Glaze refills are mostly related to famous people and events in history.

It is a pity that the predecessors were unable to study it, which caused some gaps in the history of porcelain.

Especially for some ancient pottery repair glaze, the player is a treasure, and the posterity is a grass.

Chen Wenzhe really understands kiln firing, since the two old men approached kiln firing technology, Chen Wenzhe would naturally show his skills a little bit.

For the kiln, his most powerful thing is to control the fire.

If the fire control is not good, secondary fire will occur.

This phenomenon is also called underfire, that is, the temperature of the kiln fire is insufficient.

Due to lack of fire, there will be corresponding differences in porcelain, such as color, hardness, porcelain sound and so on.

People often judge sub-fired porcelain as imitations.

Low-temperature porcelain with other technological design will also be like secondary fire porcelain.

For example, the Ge Kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty with a loess body, if the temperature is high, it will become a gray body, and it will lose the charm of the loess body.

Complete secondary fire porcelain is rarely seen, and it is half-baked and fragile.

In case of a broken weapon, one can see the fire at the fracture.

By this time, they were not talking about the characteristics of the antique, but about the real technology, especially the technology of firing the kiln.

The two old men are not very good at firing kilns, but they are good at returning kilns and repairing kilns.

This has already involved restoration, so they simply lead in the direction they are good at.

Porcelain is the most indispensable thing in Jingzhen, and most of the antiques are residual wares.

When you encounter remnants, you will naturally have to repair them.

Since we are talking about returning to the kiln, we have to talk about restoring porcelain, and this is also a major item.

Chen Wenzhe was all smiles. The Longquan celadon he restored has entered the Dahai City Museum!
However, for communication, learn from each other's strengths and make up for your weaknesses. No one dares to say it, and you must understand everything.

The two old men had already proved this point to him before, so he didn't dare to underestimate him.
