Chapter 1599: The cherished treasure of emperors throughout the ages, one treasure from a thousand kilns is hard to find
The shape and glaze color of Tang Sancai are excellent. There is nothing to say about this, but the quality of the body is not good, but it also has its own unique characteristics.
Tang Sancai is white with light red and light yellow texture.
The fetal soil is fine, solid, and contains mineral impurities.
Since most of the artifacts were unearthed from tombs and have been used for thousands of years, the exposed parts of the artifacts are weathered;
Most modern imitations are made of porcelain or gypsum, which are white, delicate and without weathering.
There are few impurities, the sound is loud when knocked, and the hand feels heavier.
Since he had done a lot of Tang Sancai before, Chen Wenzhe did not do much this time.
It didn’t matter that he just made a few figurines of figures. Horses and camels had been made before. The ladies of the Tang Dynasty were not afraid of making more figurines, because they were really beautiful when they were done.
After all, Chen Wenzhe is a man, and he naturally likes beautiful physical objects.
Although he doesn't consider being fat to be beautiful, he definitely doesn't like skinny and skinny beauties with thin bamboo poles.
He is very traditional and likes beauties who are plump and fleshy, but definitely not fat.
After making a series of twelve pictures of ladies and collecting twelve gold hairpins, Chen Wenzhe stopped.
One by one, the eyes are moving, or they are looking back and smiling, or they are smiling sweetly, or they are beautiful women with radiant light, no matter how you look at them, you feel comfortable.
It's a pity that now it only looks expressive with facial features. Since it was not fired, the healthy color and gorgeous clothes unique to the beauty are not reflected.
“This characteristic of intertwined glaze colors is actually reflected in the red and blue glaze!”
If we say that Tang Sancai is composed of several colors, they are disorderly and uncontrollably intertwined.
Then the blue and white glaze with red inside is two glaze colors, fired in an orderly manner.
After making a large blue and white glaze red peony vat, Chen Wenzhe felt that his craftsmanship had improved again.
It's a pity that he still makes traditional porcelain, and he really can't think of any innovation.
There was still a little glaze left, so Chen Wenzhe painted the specially prepared copper-red glaze and blue-and-white material on a goblet.

I have long wanted to make a red-and-blue-and-glazed goblet, but I haven't found the chance to make one. Now I just want to make a high-quality one.
Making the goblet is a bit troublesome.
This kind of cup is also called a horse cup. It is the same as a tall bowl, with a bowl-shaped top and a high handle below.
Goblet, also called handle cup, is a typical ceramic utensil with beautiful appearance, practicality and convenience.
The goblet of each dynasty has its own characteristics of the times.
The one made by Chen Wenzhe has an outwardly rolled lip, an inwardly curved abdomen, a thin and vertical high foot (handle), and a horseshoe-shaped bottom with a solid center.
"The blue and white materials are gone, but there is still a lot of red glaze."
Looking at the materials under his hands, Chen Wenzhe once again thought of the special treasure of domestic time.
The goblet is one piece, and the child's pillow is one piece. Now that there is red glaze, let's make one in Lang Kiln red.
He has made a series of red glazed porcelain, including Langyao Red.
At that time, what I was making this time was Lang Yaohong, which can be listed as one of the top ten treasures in China, so it was naturally not simple.
What he made this time was a Langyao red bile vase.
The reason why Lang Kiln Red is also called Beauty Drunken Glaze is because of its bright and unconventional red color. You can imagine how beautiful it is.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called pink glaze, baby face glaze, peach blossom glaze, etc.
Langyaohong was founded in the Ming Dynasty and developed greatly in the Qing Dynasty.
During the Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, the social economy was relatively prosperous, and the porcelain making technology reached its historical peak in my country. The Langyao Red produced during this period was the best.
It can be said that Lang Kiln Red during this period was the masterpiece of domestic colored glazes.
That's why there is this: the treasure of emperors throughout the ages, a treasure from a thousand kilns is hard to find!
Red and porcelain are the colors of traditional majesty, prosperity and joy.
One is a world-renowned treasure of Chinese civilization.
When the two classics merged, the most intense single-color glaze was created - Lang Kiln Red.
In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang defeated various generals and founded the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang relied on the Red Turban Army to revolt, so he vigorously promoted the Red Dynasty, so underglaze red porcelain was the most popular in that era.
However, this color was not easy to produce at the time. The color was always unsatisfactory, it could not be truly red, it was always a bit gray, and the failure rate was high.
It wasn't until Zheng He's voyage to the West that he brought back the bright red clay that allowed Jingzhen to bake bright red colors.
This color of ceramics once became famous, known as "glazed with Western rubies".
Moreover, this kind of soil was originally very small and had to be brought from overseas. Transportation at that time was not particularly developed, so the output was very small and the price was very high.
Later, the Ming Dynasty implemented a sea ban, and fresh red soil was scarce, so it almost disappeared.
Therefore, in that era, this kind of porcelain known as "glazed with Western rubies" was very precious, let alone passed down to this day.
Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty loved ancient porcelain, especially red-glazed porcelain.
This is because in our traditional ancient culture, red means good luck and good fortune.
However, the firing process of high-temperature copper red glaze is very difficult.
Since the Ming Dynasty, the firing of red glazed porcelain has been in decline.
Later, after years of wars, it was almost lost. In the Qing Dynasty, porcelain craftsmen began to regroup and strive to restore the former glory of red-glazed porcelain.
Nowadays, we all know that high-temperature copper red glaze is difficult to fire well, and the requirements for the firing atmosphere are very high.
The colorant of Lang Kiln red glaze is copper, which must be fired at a high temperature of more than 1300 degrees Celsius.
Moreover, copper is a particularly active element, and its color appears differently at different kiln temperatures.
Lang Tingji himself was very interested in ceramics, so with his unremitting efforts, he finally fired the red glaze.
Since the kiln-firing technology was not mature at that time, it was difficult to produce just one piece from hundreds of kilns.
At that time, the Jingzhen Imperial Kiln spared no effort to re-fire red-glazed porcelain, and successfully created a new variety of red-glazed porcelain - Langyao Red.
Although it is an imitation of the Ming Dynasty period, the workmanship and quality are also very exquisite.
However, even if it succeeds, it will be very difficult.
At that time, it was impossible for the people to do it even if they lost all their money, which made Langyao Hong so precious and its collection value so high.
These utensils are dignified in shape, graceful and luxurious, and complement each other with the strong and unrestrained glaze color.
Although most of the Langyao red wares have no mark, naturally only the royal family is eligible to own this kind of luxury porcelain that costs a huge sum of money.
It is rich in color, gorgeous and elegant, and highly praised by the royal family.
Today's re-fired Langyao red is bright red in color and has no detailed texture;
The details are relatively good, but the color is too dark and lacks texture.
Nowadays, there are also high-quality imitation Langyao reds. This high-quality Langyao red has a bright red glaze and a glass-like texture on the surface.
The whole body is flexible and changeable, rich in details, and can withstand careful appreciation.
To obtain such a fine product is inseparable from unique craftsmanship and the secret recipe of mud glaze.
