During this period of time, although Chen Wenzhe did not make porcelain, he thought about it in his mind and immersed himself in the experience in his dreams, but he never stopped.
It's just that he has adapted to the immersive experience learning method and has become less burdensome than before, so he just eats and drinks as usual.
However, after such an immersive experience for a long time, his progress became too obvious.
Especially recently, he has also studied distressing, and the porcelain he makes now is even more difficult to tell whether it is authentic or fake!
If he didn't know his craftsmanship, if he didn't know what he did, if this time the porcelain entered the market and he accidentally encountered it, it's really hard to say that he would be able to identify it.
This is the danger of making things old, and this is really a fake.
The craftsmanship of this batch of porcelain is good, and it can really look fake, mainly because Chen Wenzhe made it seriously.
Regarding these porcelains, even though he knew they were imitations, Chen Wenzhe was very happy to see them.
This batch of porcelain must be kept, because if he continues to do it in the future, he will be doing repetitive work, and he will definitely not have the intention this time.
If you don't pay attention to firing and aging, the final effect will definitely not be as good as this time.
After seeing these fine products, Chen Wenzhe went to another studio, where the main items used were large plates.
There are still many of them for sale, but there are also some exquisite ones.
These porcelains are often made randomly by Chen Wenzhe.
This can be regarded as one of his shortcomings. He was originally imitating some porcelain, but he suddenly had other ideas.
At this time, he can't help but create some special-shaped porcelain.
If you can't change the shape of the plate, then you can change the decoration, such as the fine imitation of the Qianlong doucai Kui phoenix pattern plate from the Qing Dynasty.
Now Chen Wenzhe's imitation of doucai has begun to become very powerful, and it is no longer as cautious as before.
So the Dou Cai market that was imitated this time looks really good.
This kind of large plate is a classic variety of doucai porcelain from official kilns in the Qing Dynasty.
And Chen Wenzhe's imitations are generally classics.
As for doucai, the Ming Chenghua doucai imitated during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty was already very powerful.
In particular, some special color materials are no worse than Chenghua Doucai.
Of course, there are still differences. After all, many Ming Dynasty color materials cannot be found in the Qing Dynasty.
However, exchanges between countries around the world became more frequent during the Qing Dynasty, and the national power during the Qianlong period was at its peak, which gave them more choices.
Therefore, let’s not talk about imitation, but only about artistic achievements. The Qianlong fighting colors of the Qing Dynasty are not much worse than the fighting colors of the Ming Dynasty.
Just like the Doucai market selected by Chen Wenzhe, it is a classic among them.
Picking it up carefully, you can see that the outer wall and center of this large plate are all painted with Kui phoenix patterns.
Three Kui phoenixes are surrounded by lotus flowers in the center of the disk, and four Kui phoenixes on the outer wall of the disk are walking among the surrounding flower branches and vines.
The shape of the Kuifeng is beautiful and tortuous, and its posture is graceful like a flower branch. The Kuifeng and the twining flowers are mixed together, dense but not chaotic.
The inner bottom of the circle foot is inscribed with the six-character three-line vertical seal script "Made in the Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty".
The whole plate is regular in shape, delicate and white in texture, and the glaze is shiny and shiny, highlighting the royal wealth.
Kui Feng is a variation of Phoenix, the king of birds, and its song is like the sound of a flute.
Kuifeng does not eat live insects, does not gather live grass, does not live in groups, does not fly around, does not fall unless it is a parasol tree, and does not drink from a spring that is not a sweet wine. It is a spiritual bird that can know the world and put an end to chaos. It can only appear when a wise king reigns over the world and there is peace.

The plate uses Kuifeng as its theme, indicating the prosperous and prosperous scenery of the Qianlong Dynasty. It is a typical artifact of the Qianlong official kiln.
Chen Wenzhe held this plate, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.
He originally made the most dragon-patterned utensils, and there were not many phoenix-patterned ones. This one can't be said to be the first one, but it's not bad at all.
He feels that compared to the dragon pattern, the phoenix pattern is actually more gorgeous when made, especially when made in pastel.
When a great country is prosperous, it should be decorated with such grand attire.
Therefore, he must have made more than just one doucai. Since he had prepared enough doucai glaze, he naturally couldn't make just one.
Since you are making doucai, you must imitate the doucai.
However, what he did was not a real Chenghua Doucai, but an imitation of an official official.
That is to say, they are imitations of Qing Dynasty doucai, but this Qing Dynasty doucai is an imitation of Chenghua doucai.
What Chen Wenzhe made is a doucai Ruyi moire folded waist plate, 14.6 cm in diameter, in good condition, with a slender mouth, folded belly, and circled feet.
The center of the plate is painted with a doucai ring set with a Ruyi cloud head pattern, and the outer wall is painted with blue and white doucai patterns of seven groups of Ganoderma lucidum patterns, each in red, green and blue.
Doucai is a technique for porcelain glaze decoration. The outline is first outlined with underglaze blue and white, then the corresponding color is filled in the outline, and then fired in a kiln at low temperature.
Ming Dynasty Chenghua doucai craftsmanship is outstanding and popular, and later generations admire and imitate it.
The shape and decoration of this doucai plate are similar to those of Chenghua doucai, and the overall composition is clear and orderly.
The glaze has a lustrous texture, a stable color, pure colors, and neat painting.
The most important thing is the natural patina handed down from generation to generation. Those who don’t know it must think it is an authentic product from the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty.
Such porcelain is rare in the market, and only knowledgeable people can recognize it. This is a masterpiece of Qing Dynasty imitation of Ming Doucai.
Chen Wenzhe got a set within a set, and what he saw with half-expectation was the Chenghua genuine product. Experts would think it was an old imitation from the Qing Dynasty.
No matter what, when seeing this kind of work, no one would think it is a modern art piece.
In fact, a large plate of this level was made by the Emperor Qianlong. It has exquisite shape, delicate texture, moist glaze, and bright colors. Even if it is a modern work of art, even if it is not said to be made by Chen Wenzhe, just selling such a plate will give a full price estimate.
It costs five to six thousand yuan.
This is the value of art. Beautiful things, even if there are no other additional things, such as the fame of the author, the cultural inheritance of antiques, etc., the price of porcelain of this level will not be too low.
Chen Wenzhe's imitation of this piece of porcelain is very good, but if it is to be compared to the level of Chenghua Doucai, it will definitely not work.
Chenghua's world-famous Doucai is characterized by the harmonious fusion of underglaze blue and white and overglaze colors, making it extremely colorful and elegant. It can be called a treasure in ceramic art.
Among the colors, "Shachai" is even more unique and can be said to be the symbol of the Chenghua generation.
During the Chenghua period, the fetus quality is delicate and pure, most of the carcass is light and thin, and the tire repairs are regular.
Those with thick fetuses are as good as jade;
Those with thin bodies will have exquisite and transparent bodies.
At the same time, under light perspective, the carcass mostly appears fleshy red.
This is a common feature of the Ming Dynasty carcass, and it is also a feature that cannot be ignored when distinguishing between Chenghua and Qing imitation porcelain.
To imitate chemical fighting colors, the main reason is poor materials.
If you give him the materials used in the Chenghua period, even ores, then Chen Wenzhe can have the confidence to imitate the pinnacle Doucai porcelain of the Chenghua period.
The porcelain in front of you is actually very easy to identify because it has strong Qianlong characteristics.
