Qianlong blue and white basically continues the style of Yongzheng blue and white, and strives to pursue the artistic effect of Ming Yongle and Xuande blue and white, which are rich and light, gorgeous and elegant.
The blue and white of the Ming Dynasty was inherited from the Yuan Dynasty. From such a series of inheritance, Chen Wenzhe naturally benefited a lot!
This time, Chen Wenzhe perfectly inherited all the technologies that were popular during the Qianlong period.
Therefore, his Qianlong blue and white technique has reached the master level, and other Yuan Dynasty blue and white, Yongle blue and white, and Xuande blue and white have also reached the professional level.
Not only did he learn how to blend blue and white flowers, he was also able to blend, in addition to white ground blue and white, bean green ground blue and white, yellow ground blue and white, sky blue ground blue and white and other varieties that were popular during the Qianlong period. The preparation of these blue and white flowers was at a master level.
In addition to the inheritance of blue and white, I also learned the painting technique of dragon pattern.
Dragon pattern is a type of decorative pattern on ceramics. The Ming and Qing dynasties were the heyday of ceramics decorated with dragon patterns. They mainly used overglaze and underglaze painting methods, as well as printing, engraving and other techniques.
There are many changes in the body shape of dragons, common ones include Yunlong, Pearl Playing Dragon, Seawater Dragon, Chilong, Walking Dragon, Standing Dragon, Frontal Dragon, Profile Dragon, Kuilong, etc.
Therefore, the accompanying Chen Wen philosophy reached the dragon pattern painting and engraving techniques of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
This is mainly because the dragon patterns in the Qianlong period borrowed many techniques from the Ming Dynasty.
After sorting it out for a while, Chen Wenzhe looked at the attribute list and smiled.
His attribute list has two more categories.
Blue and white: Qianlong blue and white (white ground blue and white master level 3, bean green ground blue and white master level 3, yellow ground blue and white master level 3, sky blue ground blue and white master level 3), Yuan dynasty blue and white (specialized level 2), Yongle blue and white (specialized level 2)
), Xuande blue and white (specialized level 2);
Dragon pattern painting and depiction (Master Level 3): Yunlong, Pearl Playing Dragon, Seawater Dragon, Chilong, Walking Dragon, Standing Dragon, Frontal Dragon, Sidelong Dragon, Kuilong...
The attribute list is very concise, but the description is very detailed.
Apart from anything else, he had no big problem making Qing Dynasty blue and white, especially Qianlong blue and white dragon-patterned vessels.
Of course, you can also make Jiaqing blue and white porcelain, but if you can make Qianlong blue and white porcelain, who will make Jiaqing porcelain?
"What are you thinking about? I heard that the gold bricks you brought were sold for a huge price?"
"Well, after selling it for more than 800,000 yuan, the rest can't be sold at such a high price. Ten thousand yuan for one piece should be enough. Are you sure you want to learn this technology?"
"Learning won't waste much time. Practicing clay is not that difficult. You just need to rely on experience to see whether the refined clay is up to standard. What's so difficult about this?"
"Well, if you do more, you will naturally gain experience. When I go back and take a closer look at your work, I can't reach the level of clay training. The fired gold bricks can't be struck like gold and stone, or viewed like ink.
The realm of jade.”
The firing of gold bricks is very simple, as long as you obtain qualified mud, press it into embryos, and then bake them in the kiln.
Firing is not very difficult. If you follow the method taught by Chen Wenzhe and follow the steps step by step, there will generally be no problem.
If you're worried, just bake it for a few more days, and it won't burn out anyway.
There are two key steps. The first step is to make the embryo before firing, and the other is to polish it after firing.
Among them, embryo making is more important. As long as you get qualified gold bricks, polishing them is just a matter of effort.
Without a qualified brick embryo, no matter how hard you polish it, you won't be able to make something good.
Therefore, clay training is particularly important.
If you don’t have experience, do you know what level of refining is considered qualified?
If you gain experience, how many kiln bricks do you have to fire to get the correct data?
But with Chen Wenzhe, it was different. He accepted the inheritance, and he didn't know how many batches of gold bricks were fired in his dream, so he naturally had rich experience.
Inheriting experience is the core of inheritance.
There is no need to accumulate experience, just use the experience taught by Chen Wenzhe, and there is no need to explore more, and you will learn it.
As for how many gold bricks were burned in the middle, that is another question.
After returning home, Chen Wenzhe immediately got busy and slept all the way. He was not tired at all.
And Chen Qinghu is even more motivated because he can make money.
So, searching for soil, filtering the mud, kneading the mud, followed by beating, drying, pounding, grinding, and then clearing the mud, washing it to dry, kneading it, making a mold, and drying it in the shade. These processes, Chen Wenzhe broke apart and crushed them.
I taught it to Chen Qinghu carefully.
It took three days to turn all the mud prepared by Chen Qinghu into brick embryos and send them to the kiln entrance.
The next step is firing. Chen Wenzhe marked the detailed firing process, time and temperature in his notebook clearly.
At this time, he could no longer stay at home. Over at the school, Professor Tao was already urging him.
At this time, Chen Qingchuan had returned home, and the bronze wares bought by Chen Wenzhe were also brought back.
In the end, Chen Wenzhe decided to keep these bronze wares at home.
The cellar originally used by his family was used to store sweet potatoes and vegetables in winter. Now it has been renovated by brothers Chen Wenzhe and Chen Qingchuan. Several safes have been installed and it has become Chen Wenzhe's treasure house.
The cellar was completely renovated. Because he has two specialized skills: digging holes and digging mountains, digging a cellar is just like digging a cave. It took Chen Wenzhe three nights to triple the original size, and he also used
The safe was used as a support to strengthen the cellar.
It's just that the cost of the safe is relatively high, otherwise, it can be said to be perfect.
When he left home this time, Chen Wenzhe didn't take many things with him. Among them were four horizontal pots, an incense burner, a bronze chime, and the half of the remaining blue and white utensils!
Originally, he wanted to give a few Qianyuan treasures to his classmates, but after thinking about it, Chen Wenzhe still resisted the desire to show off.
The main reason is that there is an ancient tomb from the Tang Dynasty in his hometown. If he takes out too many Qianyuan treasures, even a fool can guess that he must have gained something. In that case, the large underground tomb may be exposed.
Already.
Traveling lightly, you will naturally feel brisk.
When I walked out of the high-speed rail station in Dahai City, I saw that guy Zheng Yu.
"Huh? Why is the suitcase so light? Didn't you bring us anything good?"
"I have brought four horizontal pots, one for Professor Tao, and one for each of the three of you!"
"Is it the kind of horizontal pot you sell for thirty thousand apiece?"
Looking at Zheng Yu who looked surprised, Chen Wenzhe was even more surprised: "How did you know?"
"I know a lot, like the tomb robber?"
"I'm Ci'ao, my bad news spreads thousands of miles!"
"What kind of bad thing is this? Being famous is beneficial. If you are not famous, can your teapot sell for 30,000 yuan?"
"That's true, but tomb robbers don't have a good reputation."
Chen Wenzhe sighed secretly, mainly because he felt guilty!
If he hadn't really robbed the tomb, he might be complacent about the word "Grave Robber". For now, forget it. Keeping a low profile is the way to go.
