Plain three-color porcelain is a major category of porcelain. Especially during the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the firing of this type of porcelain reached its peak.
The fact that it flourished for a while is enough to illustrate the value of this kind of porcelain.
Not to mention anything else, just the color, it’s not simple.
The ancients said: Those who paint green, yellow and purple flowers on black and white are called plain three colors.
The black ground is the most expensive, but there are also light yellow, light green and other places, while the flowers are darker yellow and green.
There are also those with white ground exposed intermittently, and eggplant purple is almost a little rare. Some flowers only have two colors of green and yellow, which are almost counted as three colors.
Green within green, yellow within yellow, divided into shallow and deep, so there are real four and five colors, which are also called plain three colors.
Westerners are fond of this and the price is extremely high. A bottle is worth tens of thousands of gold. Monsters are the most bizarre, followed by human figures. Flowers and birds are also worth more than that.
From all the above, we can know that the colors of Susancai are rich.
It can also be seen that why plain three-color ceramics were fired more frequently in the Qing Dynasty was mainly because they were expensive.
Especially as a kind of porcelain that is popular among foreigners and can be sold at high prices, it is naturally popular in China.
Just like the plain three-color Jiaozhixianghe, it was most famous during the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty.
In other words, the plain three-color wares of the Kangxi period were extremely famous.
During this period, Chenghua, Zhengde tricolor and Jiajing, Wanli color overlapping techniques were mostly inherited.
But it was also discovered that the plain tires were carved with decorative lines, painted with pictures, and coated with glazes.
Its craftsmanship is unique, rich in variety, simple and elegant.
Not to mention the glaze color, there are plain three-color wares that are used repeatedly alternately, such as yellow ground, purple ground, beige ground, tiger skin glaze, etc.
These plain three-color wares are unpredictable and highly ingenious.
Everyone likes good things, but at this moment, the knowledge in front of Chen Wenzhe is a lot of broken pieces.
Since he was familiar with various types of utensils and there were enough porcelain pieces here, Chen Wenzhe planned to try to repair them.
He selected the ceramic tiles brought by a submarine and pieced them together. He pieced together a small bowl very easily.
After all, they were salvaged from the same sea area, and the pieces were not too badly broken, so it was not difficult to piece them together.
If you look for porcelain pieces with new fractures, it will be easier to piece together a complete device.
Putting them together one by one will bring out the most flavor, but small bowls are easier to put together.
Soon, a bowl with a purple and green dragon pattern on a yellow ground appeared in front of Chen Wenzhe.
This kind of porcelain, just by looking at the civil service, you can tell that it is an official product of the Qing Dynasty created by Wanli, and it is definitely not something that can be produced in South Vietnam.
"One Sword Dominates"
"It's not from the Ming Dynasty, but it's actually from the Qing Dynasty? No, there should be several sunken ships in the nearby waters, from the Ming and Qing dynasties, and even from the Song and Yuan dynasties."
Just like the small bowl in front of you, it is obviously not a work from the Wanli period, but an official kiln from the Qing Dynasty with the characteristics of the Wanli period. This kind of porcelain is the most exquisite made by Kangxi.
In particular, some white three-color peony and dark dragon bowls and white three-color three-color and three-color dark dragon platters were created during the Kangxi period.
Chen Wenzhe searched for it, and sure enough, among the piles of broken porcelain pieces, he pieced together a perfect plate, all of which were plain three-color pieces.
This kind of porcelain has a solemn shape, a fine and clean body, dragons and colorful carvings on the outer wall, bright colors, clear layers, and very exquisite craftsmanship. At a glance, you can tell that it is the best of Kangxi plain three-color porcelain.
In addition, there are Mo Di Su San Cai, and Chen Wenzhe pieced together a bottle.
It should be the Tianyuandiandian vase. This kind of bottle is also the best among the plain three colors.
The shape of this bottle contains the ancients' understanding of the theory of heaven and earth. When making it, it is first coated with green glaze and then ink color, which is called ink ground.
Then, use a dark purple pen to draw flowers, birds, animals, lotus and other pictures in white, and fill in yellow, green, purple and white colors in the same way.
This kind of porcelain has extremely complicated craftsmanship, so later generations would not dare to imitate it.
During the Republic of China, most of the Mo Disu three-color wares were seized by European and American countries, which is regrettable.
There were many plain three-color wares before Kang and Yong Dynasty, but they were rarely fired in subsequent dynasties. In the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there were many imitations, which ultimately could not compare with the original ones.
But even so, South Vietnam cannot bake it.
Therefore, although there is Jiaozhi Xiangli in Neon, many people have never believed that this exquisite Xiangli was produced by the South Vietnamese.
That is to say, after the ruins of Jiaozhi Xianghe were excavated in China, neon scholars soon determined that Pinghe's "plain three-color" porcelain was closely related to Jiaozhi Xianghe, which became popular in neon in the 17th century, in terms of texture, shape, decoration and glaze color. , are no different.
This shows that the kiln site in Pinghe is the real place of origin of "Jiaozhi porcelain".
Prior to this, the neon tea ceremony community believed that these "plain three-color" fired shapes were produced in South Vietnam, so they were called "Jiaozhi porcelain".
Therefore, these "plain three-color" fragrant blends produced by Hu Jianping and Hu Jianping are mainly exported to Japan.
Currently, hundreds of ancient folk kilns have been discovered in Pinghe, mainly in Nansheng and Wuzhai areas.
They were built on the hillside near the river, forming a "ten-mile long kiln".
The most famous one now should be Wuzhai, which is already the hometown of the famous "Blue and White Porcelain" (Clark Porcelain) of the Ming Dynasty at home and abroad.
The ancient kiln sites such as Dongkou Kiln and Pigou Kiln are still relatively well preserved in that place.
Since the 1980s, county cultural relics workers have discovered large-scale ancient kiln sites from the Ming Dynasty in Nansheng, Wuzhai and other places.
The ancient kiln sites there are very rich in relics, and now the ancient kiln sites have been designated as key cultural relics protection units.
In order to develop this profound cultural heritage and allow visitors from all over the world to visit the ancient kiln site, Wuzhai embarked on planning and development.
At present, the original appearance of the ancient kiln site is basically still there. The local alpine ridge soil is also very suitable for forging blue and white porcelain, and it has the conditions for redevelopment and production.
They made full use of the advantages of "Clark" being famous both at home and abroad, and implemented the policy of going out and bringing in, so as to develop Clark porcelain.
They have the "Clark" trademark, and by providing site resources, raw material shares, etc., they vigorously introduce companies with capital and strength to develop and set up factories in Wuzhai to produce "Clark" ceramics and other related products.
In the end, they invited experts to cooperate with county and township cultural departments to carry out in-depth research on "Clark" archaeological culture, and eventually formed an industry.
Chen Wenzhe doesn't value this industry, but he is interested in various craftsmanship from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and he even wants to build an underwater ceramics museum.
Therefore, Chen Wenzhe also saw that the water was intact, but he also liked the broken porcelain pieces recovered from the water.
Since the boss likes it, Gao Qijing and the others will naturally satisfy him.
In this way, when Chen Wenzhe was studying broken porcelain pieces from the water, batches of porcelain pieces were constantly being fished out of the water.
Afterwards, various pieces of porcelain were found, which was enough for Chen Wenzhe to understand what exactly was carried on this ship.
And the unexpected appearance of a complete Xianghe allowed him to see what exactly happened to the ship back then.
Soon he was sure that this time he had really discovered a sunken ship of similar age to the Wanli.
Because only if they are of similar age, or even enter the same domestic foreign trade port, can you get porcelain that is not much different.
In the process of trade, how many people have counted the exquisite Chinese porcelain that sank to the bottom of the sea due to shipwrecks?
