Putting down the green glazed porcelain pieces in his hands, Chen Wenzhe no longer paid attention to these things.
No matter how useful these things are, they still need time to digest.
After thinking for a while, he made a few calls and found out that the fleet would not be coming in the next few days.
There is no other way, Tazhe can only continue to stay in the factory.
In this way, he worked in the studio for another day. The next day, he came to the kiln again. Looking at the wood kiln that had been modified again, Chen Wenzhe had a smile on his face.
To copy Ru kiln, you definitely cannot use an electric kiln.
When using wood kilns, improvements are definitely needed.
After all, ancient firewood kilns are not necessarily the best.
The effect Chen Wenzhe wants is not to be retro. After all, ancient productivity and science and technology are not good enough.
In modern times, we need to keep pace with the times, so as the kilns are fired again and again, Chen Wenzhe is also adjusting the structure of the kilns.
Repeated adjustments make firing porcelain more successful and easier.
Now apart from controlling the rhythm at the beginning and raising the temperature, Chen Wenzhe needs to be watching. At other times, it doesn't matter if he is not around.
In particular, the heat preservation during the firing process has no technical content, and this process is the longest.
Of course, no matter which step you take, you need to be careful.
Chen Wenzhe was definitely worried about other people firing the kiln, but the professionals he brought from China could still do a good job in simple heat preservation.
"It should be almost done. You can start the kiln after the temperature drops."
Looking at the sagger inside the kiln, Chen Wenzhe could tell some things based on his experience.
For example, through the color of the sagger, you can generally tell the firing conditions of the porcelain inside.
Now looking at the interior of the saggers, they seem to be of the same color, all yellow and red. However, experienced kiln workers can roughly see the differences in each part, which is the difference in temperature.
After all, wood kilns are different from electric kilns, and the heating in various locations is definitely uneven, and there is nothing we can do about it.
If there were no sensors in the kiln to detect the temperature, control the temperature, and fire other kiln porcelain, it would be even more difficult.
In order to fire this batch of Ru kiln porcelain, Chen Wenzhe paid a high price, and he did not want it to be burned.
Not to mention the time required to make porcelain, but the price of raw materials is not low.
In addition, the construction and renovation of rows of firewood kilns here are not simple tasks.
If everything goes well, Chen Wenzhe will naturally not open the kiln himself, he will just wait and enjoy the results.
Returning to the workshop again, after thinking for a while, Chen Wenzhe asked someone to get the raw materials and planned to make another batch of Ru kiln porcelain.
There was still a lot of free time in the wood-fired kiln at the kiln factory. He didn't know how many days he would have to wait in the factory. Since he was free, he might as well fire two more kilns of porcelain.
If you have time and ideas, don't be idle.
The batch of porcelain fired earlier should be able to handle Wu San and others.
If that doesn't work, then we have to win with quantity.
After all, Wu San gave him a genuine Northern Song Dynasty azure-glazed Ru kiln three-legged washer.
The price of 300 million yuan is not high at all. If the imitation Ru kiln porcelain he produced is not very good, then he would have to give him several hundred pieces of high imitation porcelain.
So, now that I have free time, I’d better do more if I can.
If something unexpected happens, you can give him some room for maneuver.
Of course, if he does too well, he can also let Wu San draw more blood.
He was still very satisfied with the broken porcelain pieces that Wu San sent over yesterday.
Such broken porcelain pieces should be easier for Wu San and others to collect.
Since you have this ability, collect more.
Therefore, now Chen Wenzhe doesn't mind preparing some more high-quality antique porcelain for Wu San and others.
Since they like Ru kiln porcelain, they should make as many batches as possible.
Of course, during this period, I thought of other classic porcelain, which I will definitely make.
History is developing. After all, Ru kiln porcelain is something that dates back thousands of years. To say it is beautiful, the porcelain of the third and third dynasties of the Qing Dynasty is truly beautiful.
Otherwise, how could the price of porcelain from the third and third dynasties of the Qing Dynasty easily exceed tens of millions?
After making all preparations, Chen Wenzhe kept an eye on Zhang Gu this time and did not let him waste the high-end raw materials he had finally bought.
Therefore, this time we can’t make bowls and plates, but make slightly larger and more classic Ru kiln porcelain.
When he started work this time, he started imitating Ru kiln, then moved to pastel zhadao porcelain, to single-color glaze, and then to enamel color. It can be said that more and more porcelains are imitated, and he has more ideas.
At this time, he has a plan to make a few copies of all the existing and legendary Ru porcelain. Even if he doesn't sell it, he can collect it for himself and enjoy it!
There are many elegant and interesting names among your porcelain types. They may come from poetry, political affairs, or life, such as jade pot spring bottle, plum bottle, and appreciation bottle. These three types are called the three treasures in the bottle. .
As mentioned before, among the Ru kiln utensils handed down from ancient times, there is a jade pot and spring vase.
Therefore, if we really want to say that the Yuhu Chunping was created in the Yuan Dynasty, it must be the ruling class of the Yuan Dynasty trying to put their own face on it.
Strictly speaking, the jade pot spring bottle evolved from the water purification bottle in the temples of the Tang Dynasty.
The basic shape is a curled mouth, a thin neck, a hanging belly, and a circle foot.
This is a type of bottle with a soft and changing arc as its outline. The shape of this bottle was finalized in the Song Dynasty.
And it has continued to flourish ever since, becoming a typical utensil in Chinese porcelain shapes.
There is no definite answer as to the origin of the name Yu Hu Chun Ping.
Some studies believe that the jade pot and spring vase are taken from the poem "Elegance of Poems" by Sikong of the Tang Dynasty, which contains a sentence: "The jade pot buys spring, enjoys the rain and the house; there are beautiful people in the seat, and the bamboos are cultivated on the left and right."
Some studies also believe that wine was called "spring" in the Tang Dynasty, and Yuhuchun was the name of a certain wine.
The shape of the Yuhuchun container is basically fixed, so people call bottles similar to this shape the Yuhuchun vase.
Although there are different opinions, the jade pot spring bottle was indeed used as a wine container in the early days.
Chen Wenzhe has made jade pot spring bottles before. This is the first time he made this kind of bottle. It must be used to practice or warm up his hands.
When making a jade pot spring vase, you must not just make one. Since you do it, you have to make all kinds of glaze colors at once. Anyway, firing the jade pot spring vase with special glaze color is just as troublesome.
Firing one piece is troublesome, but firing multiple pieces is still the same trouble, so it is better to make several more pieces.
The shape of the jade pot spring vase is just like that. Just make a few embryos and then paint them with different patterns according to the glaze color, and you will have classic jade pot spring vase with different glaze colors from different eras.
As for making the jade pot spring vase embryo, as long as the tire mud is well mixed and the embryo is drawn, it is really easy for Chen Wenzhe.
The jade pot spring bottle is a kind of porcelain that can be formed in one go through drawing.
Of course, there must be profit and other benefits later.
By the time the last vessel embryo is finished and the glaze to be used is prepared, the first white embryo has been almost dried.
After trimming again, it is now ready for engraving and glazing.
