Chapter 1246 A Colorful Era

Porcelain pillows in the Song Dynasty were really very popular, and it can be said that all kilns at that time produced them.

Among them, the porcelain pillow produced by Cizhou kiln is even more classic.

For example, a white-ground black-flower peony-patterned porcelain pillow produced by Cizhou Kiln is octagonal, with edges protruding from the top and bottom.

At the corners of the pillow wall, there are eight bamboo-shaped protrusions, and there is a vent hole on the back, and the plain bottom is unglazed.

The white ground and black color on the pillow surface depicts a broken branch peony, and the veins are depicted on the petals and leaves, and the black color border is painted around the pillow surface.

The peony pattern porcelain pillow made by this artistic technique is really beautiful.

However, if you want to talk about peony patterns, especially the complicated, blooming, rich and noble peonies, you still have to look at Ding Kiln.

Because, compared with Cizhou kiln, the porcelain of Dingzhou kiln is more famous.

This time he made peony-patterned porcelain, and Chen Wenzhe had to seriously examine the craftsmanship of Ding Kiln again.

The printing technique that Chen Wenzhe had a little disdain for before may play a unique role in the production of complicated patterns.

If he hadn't studied Yuan blue and white before and started to study peony patterns, Chen Wenzhe would have missed the unique craft of printing.

Because if you want to talk about kiln wares, you have to talk about printing wares.

The printing process is actually opportunistic, so Chen Wenzhe didn't pay much attention to it before.

However, if it is the printing plate of Ding kiln, it is different. After all, there are not many surviving ones.

Everyone in the world knows that Ding Kiln is one of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. It mainly burns white porcelain, with a fine and smooth glaze surface, and the white is slightly yellowish.

The decoration is represented by printing, engraving and scratching.

Every time when it comes to Ding kiln technology, printing technology is almost always ranked first, and there is a reason for this.

Because the printing process was new at that time, it was a new process, and it was too convenient to use this process for production, so there were the most works.

For example, the classic printed peony pattern plate is separated from the inner wall of the plate by the fret pattern.

The inner bottom is decorated with five groups of lotus flowers and lotus leaf patterns, and the inner wall is decorated with twined peonies for two weeks. The two layers of peonies are alternately arranged in an orderly manner.

The times are developing, from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, and then to the Yuan Dynasty, technology is constantly improving.

With the development of the times, the production of porcelain has become more and more beautiful.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the art of porcelain decoration entered a new era.
In the Yuan Dynasty, due to the court's emphasis on porcelain firing, the export volume of porcelain increased, which promoted the rapid development of Jingzhen's porcelain industry.

During this period, blue and white and underglaze red porcelain were created and fired, which brought China into a new era in the art of porcelain decoration.

Peony decorations have also become the most common decorative decorations on blue and white and underglaze red porcelain.

Like the most common Yuan blue-and-white peony jar, this kind of blue-and-white porcelain has white glaze inside and outside, and blue-and-white decoration on the outside wall.

The decoration is from top to bottom, using blue and white double strings, divided into 4 pattern belts.

The neck is painted with tangled gardenias, the shoulders are painted with tangled lotuses, the abdomen is painted with tangled peonies, and the feet are painted with upturned lotus petals.

The shape is full and solemn, and the blue and white colors are bright.

The overall hair color is sapphire blue with black spots, indicating the use of foreign green materials.

The brush is smooth, the composition is complex but not chaotic, and each layer of decoration is separated by string patterns.

This not only highlights the theme pattern, but also increases the layering of the picture.

Among them, there are quite a few masterpieces, such as jade pots and spring vases with peony patterns engraved on a red ground and white flowers.

This kind of bottle has two lines of strings on the neck and the lower abdomen.

The theme pattern of the abdomen is engraved with peony patterns in glaze red.

The shape of this bottle is tall and straight, and the red glaze is bright and faint, showing the characteristics of the early Yuan Dynasty.

After all, the jade pot spring bottle really rose in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was also the most distinctive jade pot spring bottle in this period.

Even though Chen Wenzhe had made some Yuan blue and white flowers, this time he couldn't help it, and made a few more jade pots and spring vases.

There are blue and white ones, and there are also underglaze red ones. Even for the blue and white underglaze red jade pots and spring vases, Chen Wenzhe fired a few pieces.

After the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties were completed, it was the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

As an auspicious decoration, peony decoration is the most important decorative theme of official kiln porcelain in Ming and Qing Dynasties

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, as the court attached great importance to imperial porcelain, the imperial kiln factory was established in Jingzhen, which also entered the peak period of Chinese ceramics.

The porcelain produced in this period is not only fine and beautiful, but also diverse in variety.

There appeared colorful, famille rose, enamel and other utensils that relied on ornamentation to express the beauty of porcelain, and more complex pattern compositions appeared in the decoration content.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Chenghua period was a very special time period, because there were too many high-quality porcelains in this period.

Not to mention the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup, other Doucai porcelains are also very exquisite, such as the Chenghua Doucai Jar with Strange Stone Flower and Butterfly Pattern.

Although it is not well-known, it can be regarded as a masterpiece of fighting color porcelain in the Chenghua period of Ming Dynasty.

This bucket color porcelain is decorated with bucket colors all over. On the slope, there are two groups of strange rock peonies and strange rock roses, arranged alternately, supplemented by flying butterflies.

All patterns are outlined with blue material under the glaze, and red, yellow, green, purple and other colors are filled on the glaze, giving people a fresh and bright aesthetic feeling.

Outsole department: blue and white regular script "Daming Chenghua Annual System" six-character double-line inscription.

The overall shape is full, the enamel is white and moist, and the painting is vivid.

Not to mention anything else, just because it is a work of the Chenghua period, or a fighting color porcelain, can make this porcelain worth a hundred times.

For Doucai porcelain, Chen Wenzhe didn't seriously imitate it on a large scale, but this time he encountered it, he couldn't help imitating a few pieces.

Next is the Wanli Five Colors, which is also a representative work of fine porcelain in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, the Wanli colorful flower and bird patterns are washed, and the bottom center is painted with pheasants and peonies.

On the outsole, there is a six-character double-line regular script inscription "Daming Wanli Years" in blue and white double circles.

This level of porcelain is too troublesome to make, and there are too many fine porcelains in the Ming Dynasty.

Such as sweet white glazed porcelain, Yongle blue and white porcelain, Yongle red glazed porcelain, Xuande ruby ​​red porcelain, Chen Wenzhe has not made these, after all, he mainly made peony patterns once.

In the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the peony patterns lasted for a long time, and they were mostly used as the main pattern, decorating the main parts of bottles, bowls, plates, cans and other utensils.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the peony patterns on Jingzhen kiln porcelain were more colorful, such as peonies with broken branches and peonies with tangled branches.

The peony pattern with folded branches on the Xuande blue and white plate of Ming Dynasty and the peony pattern with entangled branches in the blue and white jade pot and spring bottle are exquisite in design and strong in decorative effect.

Ming Dynasty Jiajing Sauce Glazed Ewer with Gold Peacock and Peony Patterns, and the Peacock and Peony Patterns are pasted with gold in the peach-shaped consecration on the belly of the vessel, which is particularly rich and luxurious.

Qing Yongzheng famille rose peony vases and coral red famille rose peony vases with ear piercings are both meticulous and meticulous.

These two kinds of porcelain vividly express the national beauty and natural fragrance, grace and luxury of the peony flower.

If all kinds of wares are made once, then there will be too many porcelains from the Ming and Qing Dynasties that Chen Wenzhe needs to make.

Among the varieties of porcelain, the Ming and Qing Dynasties are the most prosperous!
Whether it is glaze color or vessel type, it is the most colorful era.
