Chapter 1577: White glaze blue flowers are formed by fire, and the flowers are clearly transparent from the glaze
Based on the characteristics of the backflow pots from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Chen Wenzhe was able to make many backflow pots based on their shape and craftsmanship.
What he is imitating now is a bean green glaze backflow pot, which is a treasure from the Qianlong period.
Then we made one each of blue and white, multicolored, pastel, black glaze, blue glaze and yellow glaze.
In fact, if you think about it, this kind of backflow pot was still very useful in ancient times, otherwise it would not be possible for all dynasties to pursue it just because of its unique skills.
So, why did the ancients make backflow pots?
There have always been various speculations about this issue.
One of the most convincing answers is that the backflow pot should be a must-have item for the ancients to travel by carriage, especially when traveling far away.
In ancient times, the wheels of carriages were all wooden wheels, and the roads were mostly dirt roads, so the carriages were very bumpy when traveling.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible to use an ordinary porcelain pot with a lid, because the water in the pot will overflow and the lid will easily break.

The backflow pot solved this problem very well, so it was loved by the ancients.
Various types of Qianlong backflow pots have been completed, and the production of this type of vessel has reached the final stage.
However, as the last dynasty of flower growers, the ending must be somewhat memorable.
Therefore, Chen Wenzhe made another backflow pot from the Daoguang period.
This should be a very rare fine porcelain from the Daoguang period, and it is also a backflow pot.
After finishing it, the exquisite shape of this backflow pot makes people unable to put it down.
This blue and white porcelain pot is beautifully shaped.
The porcelain pot has no lid, and the pot body is engraved with flowers and other patterns.
The mark "Made by Shendetang" is attached to it. This mark shows that if this pot is genuine, then it was made between the 14th and 30th years of Daoguang reign in the Qing Dynasty.
Shende Hall is a palace building in the Old Summer Palace, located on Qingyan Island in Kyushu, Old Summer Palace.
This is the palace where Emperor Daoguang and Emperor Xianfeng lived in the Old Summer Palace.
When Shende Hall was built, Emperor Daoguang wrote the article "Shende Hall Records", explaining the origin of the name "Shende Hall".
"Advocate frugality and avoid extravagance, cultivate prudently and think about eternity. The emperor and heaven have no relatives, only virtue is a supplement."
This also includes the education of children, warning princes and grandchildren that it is not easy for ancestors to start a business.
Out of his preference for Shendetang, Emperor Daoguang required that all daily necessities of Shendetang must bear the inscription "Made by Shendetang".
At this point, the blue and white porcelain of the Qing Dynasty has also reached its final stage.
The previous emperors had done this, and then came the final Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty.
With the emergence of "Tongguang Zhongxing", Jingzhen porcelain industry has shrunk significantly.
However, official kilns and private kilns continued to produce porcelain. Compared with the Xianfeng and Tongzhi dynasties, the number of products was larger, and there were also a few exquisite works.
Therefore, people often compare Guangxu porcelain to a stage of "reflection" of the porcelain industry in the Qing Dynasty.
Guangxu blue and white porcelain completed a revival, and the variety and quantity of blue and white porcelain produced were the highest in the late Qing Dynasty.
The representative work of Guangxu blue and white should be the blue and white flower pattern Guanyin vase.
It is 26.5cm high and 11cm wide.
This vessel has an open mouth, a tied neck, wide shoulders, a tapered lower abdomen, a slender body, a regular shape, coordinated proportions, and a graceful shape.
The body is thin and light, the enamel is smooth and flawless, the lines are smooth, and it is gorgeous and beautiful.
The bottle body is decorated with blue and white flowers, and the belly is painted with flower patterns. The flowers are in full bloom and beautiful.
The branches and leaves are stretched and light, the brushwork is free and easy, and the flowers are elegant.
The blue and white color is rich and pure, and the painting is elegant and free. It has high artistic value and is a rare and beautiful instrument for collection and display.
According to the "Qing File·Industrial Inventory of the Ministry of Internal Affairs", in the first and second years of Guangxu's reign (1875), the Jingzhen Royal Kiln Factory fired a large number of blue and white porcelain, pastel porcelain and large vats with various colored glazes for the imperial court.
Among them, the porcelain specially used in the inner palace is signed with the inscriptions "Made in Changchun Palace", "Made in Chuxiu Palace" and "Made in Kunning Palace".
In addition, in the 10th year of Guangxu's reign, taels of silver were spent on making a reward for Cixi's fiftieth birthday.
In the 20th year of Guangxu's reign, two batches of porcelain were fired for Cixi's 60th birthday, costing a total of 128,400 taels of silver.
In the 30th year of Guangxu's reign, for Cixi's 70th birthday "Longevity Celebration", the firing of porcelain cost another 38,500 taels of silver.
There are many types of porcelain produced during these times, including tableware, Western tableware, study utensils, display porcelain, gift porcelain and other types.
The porcelains of the "Heaven and Earth Family Spring", "Changchun Celebration", "Auspicious Ruyi" and "Yongle Changchun" models are the most exquisite.
The exquisiteness of this batch of porcelain can be seen from a small bowl.
Therefore, Chen Wenzhe made a blue and white bowl with entwining lotus patterns.
This small bowl is 8cm high and 19cm wide.
The mouth is open, the belly is deep, the feet are circled, the ends of the feet are trimmed and trimmed regularly, the shape of the vessel is elegant, and the quality of the body is regular and elegant.
The inside and outside of the bowl are covered with white glaze. The glaze juice is moist and slightly bright cyan, and the pure charm is diffused.
The outer wall of the bowl is painted with a lotus pattern, the branches and leaves are entwined like silk, and one blue flower after another suddenly blooms between the intersections of the vines.
The lotus pattern petals on the bottom of the bowl are connected and the composition is sparse.
The bottom book is "Guangxu Year of the Qing Dynasty" with a six-character double-line blue and white regular script inscription.
The blue and white porcelain has simple strokes, but it has a kind of luxury from the inside out. The color is simple, but it has a kind of indescribable splendor.
Putting antique porcelain at hand, even if you don't touch it, you will feel its beauty and fragrance.
The white glaze blue flowers are formed by fire, and the flowers are clearly transparent from the glaze.
You can refer to the innate wonderfulness of nature, and the infinite will come and the Taiji will be born.
For the last small bowl, Chen Wenzhe brought up this blue and white porcelain poem from the Qing Dynasty.
At this point, Chen Wenzhe's imitation of the blue and white official kilns of previous dynasties is considered over.
At this moment, Li Jinli came to him with several artifacts.
"What?" Chen Wenzhe asked curiously, looking at the small wooden box.
"This one is the Kangxi Bingmei jar!" Li Jinli said with a smile.
"Did you really find me? How many days have it been?"
Chen Wenzhe opened the box curiously, and sure enough, there was a delicate blue and white jar with ice plum pattern inside.
"Wu Er gave it to you. You should know what kind of virtue he is." Li Jinli said with a smile.
Chen Wenzhe nodded while admiring this piece of porcelain. Kangxi's ice plum jar is a classic.
Therefore, there is nothing to fault about this piece of porcelain.
Not only is it beautifully made of blue and white, its shape, decoration, and glaze are all impeccable.
This is definitely an authentic piece of Kangxi official kiln!
"What does he want this time?"
I couldn't put it down and played with this piece of porcelain. This was no ordinary Kangxi official kiln, but a masterpiece.
This is the first time Chen Wenzhe has used such porcelain.
However, since the stuff is so good, I think the price offered by Wu Er should not be low!
"This time it's Yuan Qinghua. I heard that with your help, they opened up the high-end channels in Neon, but there are not many high-end goods. I didn't hear that you wanted Kangxi Bingmei, so you tried your best to get it from
I found one from Neon."
Li Jinli looked at Chen Wenzhe with a strange look on his face. He never imagined that Chen Wenzhe could still get along with Wu Er.
