My system is not decent

Chapter 1951 Tangying glaze color, including all

Emperor Yongzheng was quite satisfied with Nian Xiyao's work.

Although there are no more words of praise in the archives, every time Yongzheng had a whim for a new gadget, he sent someone to pay Nian Xiyao to burn porcelain as usual.

It won't be long before the new style of porcelain will appear in front of the emperor.

As long as it is the type of porcelain that Yongzheng likes, no matter how difficult the technology is, Nian Xiyao always organizes the development and firing with all his strength.

The next step is to ask the emperor to look over it over and over again until the emperor is satisfied.

Yongzheng had very strict requirements on the quality of official kiln porcelain, which was almost nitpicking.

Under his eyes, it is impossible for the kiln supervisor, who has been in office for ten years, to not have talents beyond ordinary people.

Nian Xiyao was able to undertake all kinds of work from the emperor's tribe, which is mostly recorded in "Qing Files".

On the eighth day of August in the fourth year of Yongzheng, the doctor Haiwang held a Yixing hanging glaze bottle.

How is it written?Turn a piece of wood to narrow the two ends, and hand it over to the Xi kiln for firing in the new year.

Next, the Nianxi kiln fired round ball bottles with a diameter of eight or nine inches, the upper opening was two inches in diameter, and a flower tube was placed in the belly, two or three inches high, and three or four inches in diameter.

Nian Xiyao was also the person whose name was mentioned the most in the "Qing File" of the Yongzheng Dynasty.

The earliest record is that on May [-]th in the fourth year of Yongzheng, according to the Yuanmingyuan, the eunuch Yatu was posted, and a white porcelain cup was handed over, and the Greek kiln was still fired in the next year.

The latest record is that on July 13, the [-]th year of Yongzheng, Su Hena, the doctor, and Chang Bao, the treasurer, handed over a log sample of Jihong Gaozu tea.

The decree is that in the new year, Xiyao will burn 130 pieces according to the wood sample and deliver them.

The time when Nian Xiyao was the governor of the kiln was from the fourth year to the 13th year of Yongzheng.

During the period from the first year to the third year of Yongzheng, because Yongzheng respected the family law and kept filial piety for his father Kangxi and his biological mother Xiao Gongren and empress mother for three years, the production of the imperial kiln factory was very limited.

Four years later, everything returned to normal before large-scale firing activities began.

During Nian Xiyao's tenure, he gave full play to his artistic talent and management ability, making Yongzheng Nian Kiln a world-renowned new achievement.

Nian Xiyao must be responsible for the artistic achievements of the Yongzheng period, and Tang Ying is another person.

When Tang Ying was 30 years old in the 16th year of Kangxi, he worked in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

In the sixth year of Yongzheng, he was sent to Jingzhen to supervise the pottery affairs. Although he took office in the sixth year of Yongzheng, he had already worked in the construction office of the Hall of Mental Cultivation for more than [-] years before going to Jingzhen.

Through assiduous self-study and the influence of court art, he is proficient in classics, epics and prose, and is good at calligraphy and painting, becoming a master of Qing Dynasty arts and crafts with profound knowledge.

As early as the first year of Yongzheng, he was known by the emperor and arranged to be responsible for the design of the drawing in the Office of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Qing Files" records that on the [-]th day of the first month of the first year of Yongzheng, Prince Yi handed over a small vase of the Ding kiln with an ebony base, and a Ding porcelain furnace with a rosewood cover and base.

Wang Yu is, all handed over to Tang Ying to paint as usual.

On February [-]th, the first year of Yongzheng, Prince Yi handed over a small plate of oiled grapes, which was painted by Tang Ying.

Not only is he good at drawing objects, but Tang Ying is also good at painting beauties.

His paintings of beauties in the court are very common sense.

On the second day of November in the third year of Yongzheng, on the north side of the stairs of Qingyan Xianlou in Kyushu, Yuanmingyuan, there is a painting of a beauty posted.

At that time, the purpose was to paint a very good style, and I wrote Tang Ying to paint beauties, and their clothes were painted in the same way as the clothes I painted earlier.

Relying on her painting skills, Tang Ying finally became an expert in firing porcelain after assiduous study and practice.

He said in "Tao Xinyu", Du Menxie went on an outing, concentrated, worked hard, and lived with the craftsmen for three years.

In the ninth year of the [-] Revolution, although I dare not claim to be omniscient in the principles of materials, heat, and changes in production and restraint, I am quite able to add flexibility.

Pay attention to the pottery method, have experience in clay, glaze, blank body, and heat, and direct yourself.

Tang Ying was a practical man. He wrote "Tao Cheng Chronicle Stele", which summarized 57 firing varieties, including nearly [-] kinds of color glazes.

There are 57 kinds of antiques and modern ones.

Since Song Daguan, Ming Yongle, Xuande, Chenghua, Jiajing, Wanli official kilns, Jige kiln, Ding kiln, Jun kiln, Longquan kiln, Yixing kiln, Western and Oriental wares have all been imitated.

Its glaze colors include white powder blue, big green, beige, rose purple, begonia red, eggplant purple, plum green, mule liver, horse lung, sky blue, Ji red, Ji green, eel yellow, snake skin green, oil green, European red, Ou Lan, Moon White, Emerald, Black Gold, Purple Gold and so on.

There are also names such as pouring yellow, pouring purple, filling white, tracing gold, blue and white, ink, five colors, cone flowers, arched flowers, smearing gold, and smearing silver.

As he himself is a master of arts and crafts, he is proficient in all the technological processes of porcelain firing, which led to a leapfrog improvement in the firing level of color glaze in Yongzheng Dynasty.

It can be said that he has made outstanding contributions to the development of Yongzheng color glaze.

Color glaze refers to the decorative color of the glaze. When making colorless and transparent glaze, metal oxides are added as coloring agents.

Color glaze can be divided into monochromatic glaze and variegated glaze;

Monochrome glaze is also called pure color glaze, which refers to a single color.

Such as sky blue, sacrificial red, Jiqing, Jilan, yellow glaze, white glaze, green glaze and other glaze colors;

The variegated glaze refers to the various colors presented by the blending and changing of the medium glaze during the firing process.

Such as kiln change, lapis lazuli, sprinkle blue, rust flower, tiger skin spot, furnace uniform glaze, etc.

Preliminary statistics show that there are nearly [-] pieces of Yongzheng official kiln color-glazed porcelain collected by the Palace Museum in Shendu.

Including more than 20 varieties, the quality and quantity are top-notch.

The vast majority of them are old collections of the Qing Palace, and a few of them were acquired by the state and other channels after liberation.

Almost all the glaze colors mentioned in Tang Ying's "Tao Cheng Ji Shi" are included.

The solemnity of antique glazes; the elegance of light yellow glazes; the nobility of Jihong glazes;
The solemnity of Ji blue glaze; the charm of rouge water glaze; the tranquility of sky blue glaze;
The purity of the pink green glaze; the tenderness of the okra green glaze; the erratic blue glaze;
The kiln glaze is wonderful and beautiful.

Antique glazes Antique glazes in the Yongzheng Dynasty mainly imitate the five famous kilns of Song Ru, Guan, Ge, Ding, and Jun and the celadon of Song Longquan kiln.

There are many records in "Qing Files", their Yongzheng period.

On May 26, the sixth year of Yongzheng, eunuchs Liu Xiwen, Wang Taiping, and Wang Changgui handed over two imitations of Daguan Sixi Zun and two imitations of Longquan halberd paper mallet vases.

Others include a double-ring ear vase from a holly kiln and a flower pouch imitating a holly kiln.

Two purple-gold glazed plum vases imitating Song Dynasty porcelain and one cerium bag vase imitating Ru kiln.

Two imitation Longquan double-round bottles and eight imitation Longquan octagonal double-tube bottles.

One gallbladder vase imitating the Ru kiln and two gallbladder vases imitating the Ding kiln.

Four imitation Longquan Tianqiu Zun, two imitation Longquan kiln double-round wall bottle size.

A double-ring vase imitating the Ding Kiln, a Sanxi Zun imitating the Ding Kiln, a flower pouch imitating the Ding Kiln, and a threaded vase imitating the Ding Kiln.

And spread the decree, to match the lacquer frame base, first make each style into a wooden frame, and then make it after showing it.

These are all true historical records, and there is absolutely no possibility of mistakes. Unfortunately, it is not known how many have been handed down to the present.
