Chapter 1183 All the rage

It is impossible to imitate any kind of high-quality porcelain in one go and make it directly.

There is a lot of waiting time in the middle, so Chen Wenzhe can also make some other precious porcelain in the interval between imitating the Longevity Zun.

When the Longevity Zun is finished, the glazed porcelain mothers of various colors, and the Bailu Zun are also completed, and several other porcelains should also be made.

Chen Wenzhe's skills have reached the current level, and he can no longer continue to improve his level by making some ordinary porcelain.

Therefore, he intends to make the top ten classic treasures circulated in China.

I heard that these ten pieces of porcelain are exquisite and rare!
Now that he made the top ten porcelain vases and one of the ten national treasure porcelains, Chen Wenzhe simply drew the design drawings of all ten national treasure porcelains, intending to imitate them all.

If he can imitate these ten pieces of porcelain well, then he can almost learn the craft of making porcelain mothers.

Because there are too many crafts involved in these ten pieces of porcelain.

For example, the first porcelain pillow for children, which is what we often call "child pillows".

What kind of porcelain is this?As the name suggests, this is a style of porcelain pillow, and the most exquisite ones are fired in Ding Kiln and Jingzhen Kiln.

When it comes to porcelain pillows of the Song Dynasty, one cannot fail to mention the "only existing" Dingyao child pillow in the Palace Museum, because it is a classic in the history of Chinese ceramics.

Ding kiln is a large porcelain kiln system that emerged after the white porcelain of Xing kiln in Tang Dynasty, and one of the six major kiln systems in Song Dynasty.

Ding Kiln is famous for producing white porcelain. This white-glazed pillow for children from Ding Kiln is unique in its ingenuity, creating the image of a lively and lovely boy lying prone on the couch.

With the back of the baby as the pillow, the baby's arms are crossed, the head is resting on it, the buttocks are bulging, and the two little feet are stacked and turned up, looking leisurely and contented.

The detailed depiction is both realistic and vivid. The child has clear eyebrows and eyes, round and energetic eyes, and two locks of child's hair on both sides of the chubby face.

It wears a printed robe, a vest, trousers, soft boots, and a hydrangea in its hand. The pattern is clear and the clothes are smooth.

The base of the pillow is a bed, the couch is oblong, and there are begonia-style consecrations on all sides, and patterns such as Chilong and Ruyi cloud heads are molded on the inside and outside of the consecration.

The base is unglazed and has two ventilation holes.

The overall lines of this pillow are soft and smooth, which has both practical and appreciation value.

The Palace Museum appraised it as: "Ding Kiln Child Pillow, the only one left in the country, the statue is lifelike, it is a masterpiece of Ding ware, and it is positioned as a first-class class."

And this is not to mention the glaze color. The glaze color of Ding kiln white porcelain is crystal clear and bright, the tire quality is firm and fine, and the degree of porcelain is high.

A high degree of vitrification means a high degree of vitrification, so it will naturally be oily and shiny, and it will naturally look good.

The glaze color is beautiful, and the shape of the vessel is more unique. How can porcelain like a baby pillow not be a treasure?

If you want to make Ding kiln porcelain such as Haier porcelain pillow, you must know Ding kiln craftsmanship.

Ding kiln is the center of white porcelain in northern China. It began in Tang Dynasty and was the successor of Xing kiln. It was developed in the Five Dynasties.

Previous documents mostly recorded that the kiln site was in Beihe Zhengding. In 1938, an ancient kiln site was discovered in Jianci Village, Beihe Province.

In recent years, repeated excavations and surveys have revealed fragments of the late Tang Dynasty piled up in the lowest layer;
The middle layer was mass-produced during the Five Dynasties; the uppermost layer is thin porcelain sheets with printing and flower paintings, which belonged to after the middle period of the Northern Song Dynasty, during the Zhenghe and Xuanhe years.

These thin porcelain pieces have firm texture, lustrous glaze, and beautiful patterns, which are indeed very sophisticated varieties;
And some are of the nature of official kilns, such as the discovery of fragments of inscriptions on the tires of "Shangshiju, Jinyuan, Fenghua, Guan" and so on, which can prove it.

In addition, the accumulation of coarse porcelain pieces found at the Xiyanshan site, as well as the Ding kiln porcelain and fragments commonly found in various places, can also prove that Ding kiln also fired a large number of folk porcelain after the early Northern Song Dynasty.

The main products of Ding kiln are white porcelain, and other rare and precious varieties such as sauce, red and black are also fired.

Such as black glaze (black set), purple glaze (purple set), green glaze (green set), red glaze (red set), etc., are all on the white porcelain body, covered with a layer of high-temperature colored glaze.

Liu Qi's "Return to Qianzhi" in the Yuan Dynasty said, "Dingzhou's flower porcelain Ou is white in color all over the world."

It can be seen that Ding kiln wares were not only deeply loved by people at that time, but also had a large output.

When the great poet Su Dongpo of the Song Dynasty was in Dingzhou, he once used the poem "Dingzhou flower porcelain cuts red jade" to praise the brilliance of Dingzhou porcelain.

Ding kiln is divided into North Ding and Nan Ding.

Before the Southern Song Dynasty, the kiln site of Ding Kiln was located in Dingzhou in the north, and the items fired at this time were called Beiding;

After the Song dynasty moved to the south, some Ding kiln workers went to Jingzhen, and some went to Jizhou, which was called Nanding.

The glaze color produced in JDZ is like powder, also known as powder setting.

Through the unremitting efforts of several generations of scholars, there are many varieties of Ding kiln recognized by the academic circle.

Among them are common white glaze, yellow glaze, brown glaze, black glaze, purple glaze, red glaze and green glaze.

In addition to these, there are some unknown ones, such as Jinhua, partridge, Jiacai and so on.

There are also some with unique craftsmanship, such as white glaze engraved printing, black glaze white flower, brown glaze engraved printing, black glaze engraved printing, white glaze painted yellow flower, internal and external engraving, internal and external scratching, internal and external printing, external engraving and internal printing .

Then there are special rims, such as white glaze sauce mouth and black glaze sauce mouth.

Finally, there are some bean green ground with white flowers, white ground with black glaze flowers, Tang Sancai, brown glaze painted flowers, white glaze with black flowers, green glaze with white flowers, white glaze with black flowers...

Over the years, many relics have been discovered through site investigation, such as imitation Jun, twisted tires, twisted glaze, plain porcelain, Song Sancai pottery, and Liao Sancai pottery.

Among them, Chen Wenzhe has come into contact with many, such as Baiding, Hongding, twisted tires, three-color pottery and so on.

It is because there are so many varieties that Ding Kiln has gradually become brilliant.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, Ding kiln developed to its heyday, and there were many innovations and advancements in porcelain making technology.

Therefore, Ding Kiln was once selected as court porcelain by the Song Dynasty government due to its excellent porcelain quality, elegant color and beautiful decoration, which greatly increased its value and made its products all the rage.

Due to the popularity and popularity of Ding kiln, its shape, decoration and firing methods have been imitated by porcelain kilns all over the world.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Ding kilns were imitated all over the country. However, although the kilns of the Ding kiln system in the north imitated the porcelain-making style of the Ding kiln, they generally did not use the over-firing process.

Especially after the Song Dynasty moved to the south, some Ding kiln craftsmen also moved south, so kilns such as Jingzhen also imitated Ding kiln porcelain.

This gave birth to imitators such as "Tuding", "Xinding", "Beiding", "Nanding" and "Fending".

However, due to the different regions and firing conditions, these imitation firing varieties still have their own different style characteristics.

Rujingzhen's imitation glaze is as pink in color, so it is called "pinding";
"Tuding" has thicker fetal soil, thicker fetal bones, yellowish glaze color, and grained glaze surface;

The sintering temperature of "Nan Ding" is slightly higher, so the glass quality of the glaze surface is stronger, and the glaze color also flashes blue in the white.

All imitation Ding porcelain products have almost no three basic characteristics of Beiding's "ivory white" glaze, "wax tear marks" and "bamboo silk brush marks" in terms of body glaze characteristics.
