The glaze colors of Longquan kiln are pink green and plum green, which are the most famous. The plum green made by Chen Wenzhe has reached the pinnacle of celadon production in the past dynasties.
It can be said that it embodies the extremely high realm of aesthetics: no need for heavy makeup, no need for gorgeous decorations, elegance can be seen in the simplicity, not a word, but full of elegance.
So many kind words fell on Chen Wenzhe's head like a waterfall, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Finally, Wu San's next words woke him up!
"Boss Chen's methods and techniques for making celadon are very clear to us. I wonder if you can help us make a batch?"
Wu San has already made a request. They just want Chen Wenzhe to make a batch of celadon specifically.
Hearing this, Chen Wenzhe was already laughing in his heart. Did this guy ask him to make celadon? Not Ru kiln celadon, right?
"Celadon?" Chen Wenzhe asked.
What else can he not understand at this time? Is people’s time really worthless?
This time I came here and gave away so much technology for free. This is not free, and they are not full of food!
"Yes, it's celadon, the best celadon!" Wu San said with a smile.
Looking at Wu San with a flattering look on his face, there is no need for even the top Celadon to make him smile like this, right?
Seeing that Chen Wenzhe was silent, Wu San said again: "I just heard Boss Chen talk about Ru kiln porcelain, and I feel that Boss Chen must have a very in-depth study of Ru kiln porcelain. I wonder if Boss Chen can fire Ru kiln porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty? What if?
If you have an idea, we can help!”
Looking at Wu San, I feel that his smile is a little meaningful!
It’s true, he probably wants him to imitate Ru kiln porcelain. Unfortunately, I don’t know how long it will take to make a real imitation!
Besides, even if it was copied, why would Chen Wenzhe sell it to them?
After selling it to them, he will be secretive from now on and dare not tell anyone that he can imitate Ru kiln.
Is this good? It’s definitely not good. It’s a frustrating life.
If he could really imitate Ru kiln porcelain, why would he bother to fake it?
Well, if it falls into the hands of Wu San and others, it must be a lie. Even if it doesn't lie to the people of the country, it is still a lie!
By the way, why hasn’t there been any big movement regarding the Chenghua Chicken Cup in the international market?
Wuer and the others are too strong. They sold so many Chenghua Chicken Cups, but there was no thunderstorm?
Thinking of random things, Chen Wenzhe watched Wu San's performance.
Of course, from time to time, Lao Zhou and Lao Li would like to focus on the production process of celadon.
Chen Wenzhe didn't speak. Wu San was a little anxious and kept winking at the two old men.
In this way, the two old men really communicated more deeply with Chen Wenzhe, especially the firing of celadon.
After listening for a while, Chen Wenzhe really took it in.
There was no way he could help it. As soon as he heard it, he unexpectedly realized that celadon could actually be used throughout the history of the country?
Speaking of the development and changes in color glazes of porcelain in the past dynasties, Chen Wenzhe really has an advantage, especially for celadon.
He has never made ancient porcelain, but he is aware of the development and changes of ancient porcelain.
He had already sorted it out from ancient times to the present, and after listening to Wu San's introduction, he had a deeper understanding of the evolution of celadon.
Besides, the more modern fine porcelain, the more proficient he is, among which celadon is the best.
Celadon is a porcelain variety that has been used throughout history.
Throughout history, the change of celadon is actually a change of color, or a change of glaze color.
Chen Wenzhe had never thought of this before.
Now I heard Lao Yiyi say that this color change is really worth paying attention to.
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the original porcelain was unevenly glazed and the glaze color was lackluster, usually gray-green or yellow-green;
The porcelain produced during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period had great progress in firing technology. The glaze was applied more evenly and was mainly greenish-yellow;
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, porcelain was generally half-glazed. The glaze color was mostly green with flashes of yellow in the Western Han Dynasty, and was mostly green in the Eastern Han Dynasty. At this time, black-glazed porcelain also appeared for the first time;
During the Three Kingdoms and Two Jin Dynasties, and at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, brown spots also appeared on celadon porcelain;
During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, in addition to celadon-glazed porcelain, black-and-white glazed porcelain continued to be fired;
During the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties, in addition to continuing to produce green-glazed porcelain and black-glazed porcelain, white-glazed porcelain has become very mature. In the Tang Dynasty, overglaze and underglaze painting, as well as colorful glaze decorative techniques, appeared;
The Song Dynasty made great progress in the firing of porcelain glazes, with outstanding achievements in the firing of celadon, black glaze and white glaze porcelain. In addition, the technique of adding red, green and yellow colors to the white glaze emerged;
During the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, various types of colored porcelain and new varieties of glaze colors were created, such as blue and white, underglaze red, three colors, five colors, doucai, enamel colors, etc., all in a variety of colors.
To sum up, the firing of Chinese porcelain first started with celadon.
From the Shang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, celadon production occupied a dominant position in the field of porcelain firing.
Many famous kilns have sprung up in southern my country, firing celadon varieties of excellent quality.
Celadon is a porcelain whose basic glaze color is green. Celadon glaze is also the earliest color glaze of Chinese porcelain.
In ancient times, people often referred to the three colors cyan, green, and blue as cyan, which often appeared as blue with yellow, or with gray, green, and blue.
No matter which one, Chen Wenzhe now has great experience, especially the bluish celadon. Isn't this Ru kiln celadon?
The changes in green, green and blue are really fascinating!
Blue and green, this can be imagined, it is just a matter of color depth.
Cyan and blue are not so easy to imagine clearly, because many people think that these are two completely different colors.
But, is this really the case?
No, after all, the ancients have proved to us that there is another azure color in this world, which is a combination of blue and green.
Also, the earliest cyan color in our history, whether it was porcelain or cloth, was very, very expensive.
And the history is very ancient. Even now, there is a proverb circulating in China, that is, a person is better than a person who is good at it.
Although this sentence is widely known, few know its meaning or even its origin.
As for knowing why the superior is better than the inferior, few people will think about it carefully.
Now Chen Wenzhe felt a little enlightened. He was truly sure that cyan came from a change of blue.
So is it too normal to have a sky-blue color similar to sky blue after rain?
Seeing Chen Wenzhe's noncommittal look, Wu San was obviously a little anxious.
He looked at Lao Zhou and Lao Li, maybe asking for their opinions?
When the two old men nodded, Wu San breathed a sigh of relief.
"We definitely won't let Boss Chen help in vain. Let's take a look at this celadon brush washer first!"
Wu San very solemnly took a small bag that he carried with him and quickly took out a small flat wooden box from it.
