My system is not decent

Chapter 1279
Cloisonne has already jumped out of the narrow circle of "cloisonné era".

It has evolved into a kind of national traditional handicraft with the name of our country.

"Cloisonne enamel" has become the synonym or special name of cloisonné in the entire field of enamel art.

This should also be regarded as only appearing at the end of the 19th century or the beginning of the 20th century.

That is to say, all cloisonné enamel artworks made according to the process of making cloisonne should be called cloisonne.

The concept here has been completely separated from the "cloisonné era", but the entire development process of cloisonné art from the enlightenment period to the mature and prosperous period (including the future).

Cloisonne enamel products in each period of this development process should be called cloisonné.

As for the different product standards in each development period, that is the inevitable reflection of the development process of cloisonne.

"Cloisonne" is like a beautiful woman, who should be called "Cloisonne" before and after naming.

Only in this way can it coincide with the development history of my country's cloisonné culture!
Only by understanding what is cloisonne, what is cloisonné enamel, and what is painted enamel, can we really do these things well.

Therefore, after making these two slightly difficult works, Chen Wenzhe changed the technique again.

You can't just make enamelware, so the bonsai craft he made this time is a little more complicated.

The "Meishou Changchun" ruby ​​Meishou Changchun bonsai also came from the middle of the Qing Dynasty, but it was made by the Zaoban Office. This kind of thing must have been collected by the Qing Palace.

It is 38.5 cm high, 9 cm high in the pot, and 22-14.5 cm in diameter.

The rectangular pot with chiseled gold and corners is slightly bucket-shaped, with the top open and the bottom closed.

Ruyi patterns are chiseled along the mouth, and Ruyi cloud patterns are raised under the mouth for a week. The belly of the basin is made of Leiwen brocade with ten thousand characters as the ground, and 22 "Shou" characters are raised and chiseled for a week.

The main scene in the pot is a plum tree, with a gilded copper trunk, emerald leaflets, ruby ​​petals, sapphire blue heart and golden stamens, which are vivid.

Under the trees are lake stones made of lapis lazuli and white jade, gem-inlaid Ganoderma lucidum, jade leaves, coral beads, evergreens, dot green leaves, agate camellias and grasses.

This gemstone potted plant is full of vitality and well-proportioned.

Just talking about the craftsmanship, it must be very complicated.

It's just a plum tree, a gilded copper trunk, small emerald leaves, ruby ​​petals, sapphire hearts, golden stamens, it's very troublesome to make.

Coupled with lake stones made of lapis lazuli and white jade, gem-inlaid Ganoderma lucidum, jade leaves, coral beads, evergreens, dot green leaves, agate camellias and grasses, etc., these are too troublesome to make, and the most important thing is labor.

Of course, for the Qing Palace Building Office, they are not afraid of wasting effort, because this is their duty.

Therefore, things like this are not uncommon in Qing palaces, and they were made during the Yongzheng and Qianlong periods.

For example, the bonsai presented by Magu Xianshou was made by the Manufacturing Office during the Yongzheng period.

The overall height is 37 cm, the pot height is 13.5 cm, and the pot diameter is 24-21 cm.

Square red sandalwood seat, four sides of the seat are embossed with bamboo patterns, and the center of the front wall of the seat is inlaid with a square deep carved double dragon, blessing, longevity and Lu pattern white jade plate decoration.

The four sides of the seat are inlaid with burnt blue leaves, rubies and pearls as lace, and a malachite mountain stands in the center.

A red coral phoenix with head and neck stretched out, ready to fly, stands alone on it.

In addition, there is a magu made of beeswax standing on the back of the phoenix, with delicate eyebrows, quiet and dignified, with a topknot, a green ribbon inlaid with rubies on her shoulders, and a tourmaline peach in her hand.

The main scene is lined with pine trees inlaid with pearls in gold silk, and longevity stones and ganoderma lucidum inlaid with rubies in gold silk.

Not to mention the characters, but the accessories around you, you know that this one is also very troublesome to make.

Anyway, Chen Wenzhe has time, so he will do it slowly.

Therefore, since it is Yongzheng's treasure, Qianlong's must not be let go.

After all, things like gems are simply piled together, which is not beautiful.

However, after polishing and making it into a gemstone bonsai, it is so beautiful.

Especially under the lights, it is really colorful.

After finishing Yongzheng's work, it's Qianlong's turn.

This treasure of Qianlong is called "Sui Sui Ping An".

通高64厘米，瓶高22.5厘米，瓶口径8.8－6.2厘米，腹径14.4－10.8厘米。

He has the characteristics of the Qianlong era, that is, he spared no expense to make it resplendent!
The basis of this treasure is a square bottle with chiseled gold double ears and movable rings.

The rim of the mouth is decorated with kidnapper patterns, the neck of the bottle is chiseled with back patterns, and the two sides are inlaid with animal face patterns and living ring ears.

The four sides of the bottle are chiseled with a ring-shaped frame, and the whole body is chiseled with a brocade pattern of money. The bottle body is clearly divided into three parts: the neck, the belly, and the foot.

The four sides of the bottle are chiseled with inlaid patterns, and the four sides of the neck are inlaid with two patterns of ganoderma lucidum and orchids.

The base of the bottle is inlaid with a lotus pattern for a week, green bamboo is inlaid in front of the belly of the bottle, and peach branches are inlaid in the back.

Both sides are inlaid with patterns of chrysanthemums, dragonflies, orchids and flying birds.

The main scene in the bottle is jasper-leaved pine trees, and beeswax wisteria flowers hang from the trees.

Under the tree are lined with sapphire leaves, rose petals of hibiscus stones and magnolia flowers.

After doing this, Chen Wenzhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The main reason is that you need to be careful in doing it, and you are deeply afraid that you will make a mistake if you are not careful. In this way, all previous efforts may be wasted.

"Make a few simple things!"

Although the filigree inlay process has a good error tolerance rate, the raw materials used now are all precious stones, and if one is not careful, the loss will not be small.

Although Chen Wenzhe is now rich as an enemy, unnecessary waste is still prohibited.

There are a large number of gemstones piled up in front of them, and according to the bonsai of various treasure pavilions, they have been prepared, and even some gemstones have been processed.

These gemstones are all processed for the purpose of making bonsai, and they can no longer be used for other purposes, so they can only continue to make bonsai.

Therefore, even if he wanted to stop at this time, he could only finish these designed works.

"There are five or six more, let's do it slowly!"

Chen Wenzhe first made a "Zhixian Birthday", this time using a sapphire chrysanthemum petal basin.

To put it simply, this is a narcissus bonsai made by the Zaoban Office in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.
The overall height is 30 cm, and the pot diameter is 18-13 cm.

The sapphire chrysanthemum-petal washbasin is carved into the shape of a double-leaf chrysanthemum at the four corners. The chrysanthemum is inlaid with rubies and green materials. The lower abdomen of the basin is also carved with leaf patterns, and the green material is inlaid on the top with gold threads as veins.

There are lake stones made of lapis lazuli in the pot, and 5 narcissus with dyed teeth are planted, with carved ivory as the root, white jade as the flower, and topaz as the heart.

The gems used are not too many, and the image is not complicated.

Then, he used a large number of precious stones to make some stone flower bonsai.

This kind of bonsai is easier to make.

Carved agate peach pot, its shape is more abstract, the pot wall is embossed with peach tree branches and leaves for a week, and the bottom of the pot is covered with dyed tooth peach pattern seat.

The scenery is set on the wooden support in the basin, the taller one is Tianzhu, and the lower one is Narcissus.

The red fruit at the top of Tianzhu is made of coral beads, while the Narcissus uses white jade for flowers and sapphire for leaves.

It also planted and dyed 1 carnation and 2 peach blossoms as the lining.
