My system is not decent

Standing on top of the tide of information, modern people know that no matter what period the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty imitated, they are actually not as good as the porcelain of that period.

why?Because no expense was spared.

In ancient times, no expense was spared, but can modern people do it?
Modern people imitate a thing, they want to make money.

It's just because the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty were so good that so many people wanted to imitate them.

There are various indications that imitating official kilns actually started as early as the Song and Yuan Dynasties.

It can be said that the imitation of official kilns continued unabated until the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and considerable achievements have been made.

To sum up, the imitations of official kilns in the Song Dynasty are in the following situations
Kiln porcelain has been very valuable since it came out, and there have been many imitations in the past dynasties. The imitations can be divided into four types.

One is imitated by Longquan Kiln in Song Dynasty; the other is imitated by official kiln in Ming and Qing Dynasties;
The third is the imitation of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China; the fourth is the modern new imitation.

The Longquan Kiln in the Song Dynasty imitated the official kiln porcelain, which was fired with a pad cake or a support ring, and there was no support nail mark.

In addition, none of the Longquan kiln imitations are fully glazed and branch-fired.

The imitation official kilns in the Ming Dynasty belonged to the official imitation official, all of which were imitated by the Jingzhen Royal Kiln Factory.

The glaze layer of these imitations is thicker, and the glaze surface has large and small grains.

Most of them are pink blue and gray blue, not emphasizing shape, only emphasizing glaze color.

In the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, it imitated the products of official kilns, and was called "Imitation Iron Bone Grand View Glaze" in the literature.

The glaze colors are mostly bean green, gray blue and moon white, a few have no grain flakes, and most of them are wide open flakes. There are two kinds of glazes: transparent and devitrified.

The devitrified ones are easily confused with the Song Guan kiln. Among its exquisite products, the nail marks are black, similar to the tiny sesame nails of the Ru kiln.

Although imitations of Ming and Qing official kilns are imitations, they still have high cultural value.

Ming and Qing official kiln imitations mostly bear the inscriptions of the dynasty, or the styling characteristics of the dynasty, and will not be confused with the works of Song official kilns.

The real "official kiln" is one of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty, which was directly built by the government.

It is divided into new officials and old officials. The former is the official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the latter is the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Both the body and the glaze are as thin as paper, and come in colors such as moon white, pink, pink green, big green, and putty.

At that time, the moon white was the top, followed by the pink and green. Later, when it became pink and green, the top was the moon white.

Most of the utensils have split patterns, with ice cracks as the top, plum patterns next, and fine cracks as the bottom;
Open pattern, some with yellow and black lines are top grade.

For glaze spots, eel blood is the top, followed by ink patterns.

Although official kiln porcelain accounted for only a small number of porcelains in the Song Dynasty, due to its status and superior conditions, it fired a batch of high-grade porcelain required by the court at that time.

In this way, the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty has become a precious cultural heritage of the Chinese nation.

It is actually not difficult for Chen Wenzhe to imitate such famous porcelain.

After all, he imitated Ru Kiln and Jun Kiln before, and he also knows Ge Kiln and Ding Kiln very well.

Now imitating the official kiln actually involves the technology of the other four famous kilns.

It is not difficult for Chen Wenzhe to combine technologies with each other to produce another kind of beauty.

The most important thing here is the appropriate base soil and glaze, which is even simpler for imitating porcelain from the kiln mouth of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Because the fetal soil used in this period is generally purple gold soil, and the glaze is generally lime alkali glaze.

Of course, according to the different kiln mouths and geographical locations, there are differences in whether it is fetal soil or glaze color.

But this kind of difference is not big, at least for the modern Chen Wenzhe, it is not difficult to obtain qualified raw materials.

Now that the external conditions are suitable, technology is not a problem.

With Chen Wenzhe's current status in the arena, or with his current financial resources, it is very easy to obtain some technology.

For others, it may be difficult to learn skills, and some lost skills are even harder to learn.

But for Chen Wenzhe, all this has become simple.

As long as he has some status in the world and some money, he can learn anything he wants.

The production of official kiln porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty was not difficult for Chen Wenzhe, but the imitation official kiln of the past dynasties was more complicated for him.

Not difficult, just a little complicated.

Official kilns are very special. The Royal Kiln Factory is an official kiln, but it is not an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Only the special kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty were the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty, or later became the official kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty.

And all the imitation official kilns of later generations are actually the best imitations of the imperial kiln factory.

In principle, the official kilns imitated by these imperial kiln factories are also official kilns, and here is the official imperial porcelain factory.

No matter what kind of official kiln it is, the porcelain they produce is top-notch.

Therefore, later generations, such as Ge kiln in Song Dynasty, official kiln in Yuan Dynasty, official kiln in Ming Dynasty, and official kiln in Qing Dynasty, are all the targets of Chen Wenzhe's imitation.

Ge kiln in Song Dynasty must not be left behind, but this is also a famous kiln, and it is not easy to imitate.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe skipped the Yuan Dynasty and directly imitated the official kilns of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The Ming and Qing Dynasties can be said to be the most peak existence in the history of porcelain production.

The official kilns of the Song Dynasty must be the pinnacle of porcelain, but the official kilns of the Xuande and Chenghua dynasties of the Ming Dynasty also have a large number of imitation products
And this is precisely because the official kilns of the Song Dynasty had a great influence on later generations.

In the firing activities of Ming official kilns, products that highly imitated the Ru and Jun kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty and the official kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty appeared.

Official kilns in the Ming Dynasty flourished in Xuande.

Afterwards, it went through the three dynasties of Zhengtong, Jingtai, and Tianshun. At that time, the country was full of troubles and had no time to take care of the production of official kilns.

Therefore, the firing of imperial kilns shrank significantly, and the production of official kilns was not resumed until Chenghua.

The doucai porcelain fired at that time was exquisite in craftsmanship, surpassing the Xuande Dynasty.

Like his grandfather Xuanzong, Emperor Chenghua had a special interest in famous kiln products of the Song Dynasty.

In addition to imitating Song official kiln products, there are also a large number of imitation Song Qingbai porcelain and imitation Song Ge kiln wares.

Its masterpiece is the Ming Chenghua celadon glazed three-legged water bowl with a closed mouth. This porcelain is 7.2 cm high and was unearthed in the northeast corner of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Factory in 1988.

Chenghua's imitation of Song official kiln products not only paid attention to the imitation of glaze color, but also paid attention to the imitation of shape.

For example, the Ming Chenghua imitation Song official kiln green-glazed sunflower petal wash in the Palace Museum is very similar to the Song official kiln green-glazed sunflower petal wash in the museum;
The Chenghua green-glazed tripod furnace unearthed from Ming Yuchang is similar to the tripod furnace of Song Dynasty official kiln in Wanwan Palace Museum;

The Chenghua celadon-glazed slag bucket-shaped flowerpot unearthed from the Ming Yuchang is similar to the green-glazed flowerpot from the Xiunei official kiln unearthed from the Laohudong kiln site in Hangzhou.

This may have been imitated by the craftsmen at that time based on the actual objects of the official kilns of the Song Dynasty.

In the 25th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, there was a record of "official kiln" in Cao Zhao's "Gegu Yaolun".

"Official kiln wares made by Song Xiuneisi have fine and moist soil veins, green and pink color, different shades, crab claw patterns, purple mouth and iron feet, and those with good color are similar to Ru kiln. Those with black soil are called black mud. The kiln, the fake ones are all Longquan, and the ones burned have no lines."

It can be seen that in the early Ming Dynasty, people were very familiar with Song Xiu Nei Si official kiln wares.

If the Chenghua official kiln craftsmen had never seen the actual Song official kiln, they would not be so similar in shape.

Looking at the existing Chenghua imitation Song official kiln wares, its glaze color and some shapes are relatively close to Xiunei official kiln wares, and are of a higher level than Xuande official kiln imitation Song Ru kiln wares.
