Chapter 1592 The Twelve Flower Gods Fall into the World, Half Elegant and Half Immortal
When the Song Dynasty moved to the south, a large number of kiln workers followed him to the south.

In this way, the kiln technology in the north was also spread to the south. Jun kiln bean green glaze is probably the originator of powder green glaze in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Bean green Jun glaze often cracks due to high temperature during firing.

Especially when the temperature of the furnace is not stable enough, there are many defective products, so this Song Dynasty Bafanglongshou Cup is particularly precious.

Up to now, the most famous celadon dragon head cup should be the moment when it became a national gift porcelain.

Such a cup needs to be made as a set.

And there are many pictographic utensils like the dragon head cup in ancient times, such as bird-shaped cups.

The bird-shaped cup is one of the cup styles, also known as "pigeon-shaped cup" or "pigeon-shaped cup", which was popular in the Three Kingdoms and Jin Dynasties.

Unearthed in 1974 from the tomb of the Western Jin Dynasty in Shangyu, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it has a semicircular cup belly, with a bird's head, wings and feet on the front, and an upturned tail on the back as a handle.

The bird has a round head and a sharp beak like a dove, with its wings spread out and its feet tightened in its abdomen, making it a vivid shape.

Most of the bird-shaped cups are made of celadon, and the shape is very accurate, graceful and generous.

The bird-shaped cups that have been handed down to the present are generally relatively old, such as the bird-shaped cups of Yue Kiln in the Five Dynasties period.

This bird-shaped cup from the Five Dynasties period imitates the bronze ware of the Han Dynasty.

On one side of the cup body is a round carved bird with wings spread out, and the head of the bird is higher than the mouth of the bowl.

The other side is attached to the bird's tail, the end of the tail is slightly higher, and the middle part of the tail is connected with the abdomen to form a handle.

The bird's body, wings and tail are all decorated with scratches.

The inside and outside of the cup is covered with glaze, which is blue in color and has small openings.

The whole body is in the shape of a bird, exquisite and exquisite, with beautiful style.

The shape of this cup is novel and unique, and the bird decorated is lifelike. It is not only a practical vessel, but also a work of art for viewing. Its unique aesthetic conception is intriguing.

Shendu Palace Museum and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Museum also have similar collections of cultural relics.

Yue Kiln is one of the earliest porcelain kilns in the history of firing porcelain in my country. Yue Kiln began in the Eastern Han Dynasty and reached its heyday in the Tang and Five Dynasties.

It mainly burns celadon, and has formed a unique style, becoming a famous celadon kiln in the south.

The fired utensils are rich in shape, dignified and beautiful in pattern, fine in texture, slightly yellow in green glaze color, moist and thick in glaze, like ice like jade.

Therefore, Lu Meng, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, once praised: "The wind and dew in the nine autumns will open the kiln and win the emerald greenness of thousands of peaks."

Porcelain craftsmen during the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties put more energy into developing new glaze colors, improving the quality of glaze colors, and deliberately drawing surface decorations, but the design of the shape of the vessels was not as good as that of the previous generations.

However, the craftsmen of Yue Kiln seem to like to work hard on the shape of the utensils since they first started firing celadon.

They made a large number of Xiao-shaped utensils that imitated animals, among which bird-shaped porcelain cups were especially favored by them.

Chen Wenzhe was the first to learn and master the celadon firing technique.

It is no problem to make some celadon works.

He is doing random work now, so he doesn't do too much of each kind.

When I think about it, I just make a few pieces. Anyway, no matter how complicated the shape of the cup is, it is not too complicated.

After finishing the bird-shaped cups, Chen Wenzhe made several plum blossom cups.

Plum blossom cup, a cup shaped like a plum blossom.

Plum blossom cups appeared as early as the Tang and Song Dynasties, mostly Tang Sancai, green glaze and white glaze wares.

Among the plum blossom cups of the Ming Dynasty, the utensils of the Dehua Kiln are the most exquisite.

Jingzhen kilns in all dynasties of the Qing Dynasty were produced.

For this classic celadon porcelain, as long as there are materials from the county, it is really simple at first.

More troublesome, or cumbersome, need to know the mind, but also a set of cups.

Set of cups is a kind of utensil shape that appeared in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

For example, Qing Qianlong·Fancai set cup, the shape of the cup is relatively simple.

The utensils are upside down like a horseshoe, and there are ten pieces in a set.

The edges of the utensils are all decorated with golden color, the inner walls of the utensils are all covered with turquoise green glaze, and the outer walls of the utensils are decorated with different pastel decorations, which are sequentially combined to form a whole.

This kind of set of cups was more common in the Yongzheng to Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty.

There are round cups and square cups, especially in the late Qing Dynasty, when the quality and workmanship of the cup sets during the Daoguang Dynasty were the most refined.

The most famous cup set must be the Twelve Flower God Cup.

Chinese people love flowers since ancient times.

Fangfei April is full of colorful flowers. The ancients picked out the most beautiful flowers of each month from all kinds of stunning colors, and regarded them as the flower god of the moon order.

There is an admiration in ancient times: Twelve flower gods fall into the world, half elegant and half immortal.

The inspiration for the creation of the Kangxi imperial kiln masterpiece "Blue and White Colorful Twelve Flower God Cup" also comes from this.

Kangxi's Huashen cup has a skimming mouth, a deep belly, and a shallow ring foot. It is beautiful in shape and crystal clear.

It takes the number of the moon as a set, and the twelve cups are painted with narcissus, magnolia, peach blossom, peony, pomegranate, hazelnut, orchid, osmanthus, chrysanthemum, hibiscus, rose and plum blossom.

One side of the abdominal wall is painted, and the other side is inscribed with poems, all of which come from Tang poems.

One cup, one flower, one flower, one poem, one poem, one painting.

This is also the first time that painting, poetry, calligraphy, and seal seals have been combined in the official kiln porcelain of the Qing Dynasty. It is a famous masterpiece in the official kiln porcelain of the Kangxi Dynasty.

The Twelve Flower God Cup is such a good IP, and skilled craftsmen from all dynasties and generations will naturally not let it go.

Therefore, in addition to the "blue and white five-color" version, there are many styles of Twelve Flower God Cups.

The blue-and-white twelve-flower cup is different from the blue-and-white five-color cup. The blue-and-white twelve-flower cup is a pure blue-and-white version, and the flowers and poems are all underglaze blue and white.

The cups are as thin as paper, and the enamel is as smooth as jade.

The moon order flowers are exquisitely depicted, each with its own mood, and the poems are written neatly and vigorously.

Pastel Twelve Floral Cups with a rim, a deep belly, a flat bottom, and a round foot.

Such pastel Twelve Flower God Cups are shaped like horseshoes, so they are also called "Twelve Flower God Horseshoe Cups".

The pink color is soft and elegant, and the abdomen is painted with flowers of the four seasons, which are in various shapes and add radiance to each other.

The inner wall is inscribed with poems in ink and color, and the moon order is clear at a glance.

Others include the Cup of Twelve Flower Gods and Beauties, and the "Twelve Beauties" is now in the Palace Museum of Shendu.

In the form of a single painting and a single person, it depicts the life scenes of 12 women tasting tea, meditating, and admiring butterflies, showing the pure female life of that era.

The Twelve Beauties Cup moves the pictures of beauties to the porcelain surface, and they appear vividly on the porcelain.

Even in modern times, contemporary kilns have also made some excellent Twelve Flower Cups.

Like Yilintang's pastel Twelve Flower God Cups, this one belongs to the early works of Yilintang.

This set of Huashen Cup has a thin carcass, rich enamel, and extremely high painting technology.

The rendering and transition of pastel technology make the flowers on the cup body more three-dimensional and lifelike.

There is also the blue and white Twelve Flower God Cup of Kuduan Yarn, the hair color is pure and elegant, the flowers are depicted extremely meticulously, the ink is divided into five colors, and the shades are suitable, it is a must!
Then there is Yu Yinyao's pastel Twelve Flower God Hexagonal Cup, which is also a rare boutique.

There are not many kilns that make Huashen cups in contemporary times, and there are even fewer kilns that make hexagonal cups as soon as they come up.

Each side of the hexagonal cup is painted with flowers, trees and vegetation in different shapes. The design is thoughtful and the production is excellent, which subverts the traditional form, which is very rare.
