Chapter 1621: Orphan in the world

There are many Yuan blue and white flowers in Gao'an's cellar, and there are various types of vessels.

For example, there are 9 goblets, 1 jar with cloud-dragon-shaped lid, and 2 jars with cloud-dragon-shaped lotus leaf lid.

Others include 4 cloud-dragon-shaped plum vases with lids, 2 peony plum vases with entwined branches, and 1 banana-leaf-shaped ribbon jar.

After the Yuan blue and white flowers were unearthed, scholars decided to properly preserve the authentic Yuan blue and white flowers for safety reasons and exhibition conditions.

They decided to use one meter thick reinforced concrete and secretly sealed it in the underground secret vault of the museum. It can be said that the security work is very strict.

In the following period, except for a few pieces of Yuan blue and white flowers that were loaned to other places and exhibited abroad, they were never exhibited to the audience at the same time.

After 30 years of secrecy, in 2010, the state invested more than 50 million yuan to build the Gao'an Yuan Blue and White Museum in Gao'an to collect these hoarded porcelains.

In August 2015, Xijiang Gaoan Blue and White Museum opened with an exhibition area of ​​approximately 1,000 square meters.

The mysterious national treasure that fascinates the world finally appears in front of the public at close range.

This is the only Yuan blue and white porcelain museum at home and abroad, especially the 19 pieces of Yuan blue and white porcelain, which are extremely valuable.

The most important thing is that there are a lot of large appliances here.

There is 1 dragon-neck jar with lid, 2 dragon-neck jars with lotus leaf lids, and 6 plum vases with lids, which are rare in Yuan blue and white porcelain.

Because the Gao'an Yuan Blue and White Museum is co-located with the Gao'an Museum, it is a national key museum.

Therefore, in addition to the 19-yuan blue and white flowers, there are more than 10,000 cultural relics in the collection.

Among them, there are 62 first-class cultural relics, 107 second-class cultural relics, and 2,057 third-class cultural relics.

And all this is because in 1980, cultural relics from the Yuan Dynasty in Gao'an were discovered in China.

A total of 199 pieces of porcelain were unearthed from the hoard, including four kiln entrances: Jingzhen Kiln, Jiangzhe Longquan Kiln, Nanhe Jun Kiln, and Beihe Cizhou Kiln.

Yuan blue and white porcelain has always been recognized as a priceless national treasure.

The 19 pieces of Yuan blue and white wares collected by the Yuan Blue and White Museum in Gao'an, Xijiang are complete in shape, large in size, beautiful in shape and exquisite in craftsmanship.

Due to its long history, difficulty in preservation, and limited early production output, its total number of existence is very small, so it is extremely precious.

It is said that four Yuan underglaze red wares were unearthed together at that time, so someone added these four underglaze red wares to 19 Yuan blue and white wares. The museum has 23 rare Yuan porcelains.

During the discovery more than 30 years ago, the rare porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty that was unearthed was intact and ranked first in the world.

It can be said that domestic academic circles have changed the embarrassing situation in ancient times when the Yuan blue and white flowers created and burned by Chinese people were studied by foreigners.

As for the owner of these blue and white flowers in Gao'an Garden, there are different opinions.

After many vicissitudes, carrying legends, Gao'an Yuanqinghua still tells its historical story.

This is the Chinese culture that has been passed down for thousands of years. It is also the wisdom passed down from generation to generation since ancient times. It is also the ancestral code written in the blood.

Chen Wenzhe really didn't expect that he could easily discover nineteen pieces of Yuan blue and white this time.

Adding the previous six items, this makes twenty-five items.

Calculating this way, he can also establish the world's third largest Yuan blue and white porcelain museum on his own.

Most of the Chinese cultural relics that exist in other countries were obtained through war, robbery or smuggling.

Although Chen Wenzhe's excavation this time was not very formal, after he paid the price, it also had official endorsement.

As long as the porcelain is shipped to Dahai City, as long as he doesn't want to keep it for himself or sell it, and simply put it in his museum, there will be no problem.

Chen Wenzhe looked through the video, and the exquisite porcelain on it was really heart-warming.

There is absolutely no reason why Yuan Qinghua is famous and recognized by the world.

The green color of blue and white flowers can actually make people feel relaxed and happy.

This blue and white hair color has fully expressed the beauty of blue and white porcelain.

Unfortunately, not all of these discovered Yuan blue and white flowers are of great value.

Compared with Gao'an's cellar, this is a little inferior.

Of course, this is nothing, because even a simple bowl is very beautiful.

For example, this one is an early 15th century blue and white skimmer bowl.

It is 9 cm high and 19.5 cm in diameter.

In addition to this one, there is another one, which should be shorter in time, and looks like a blue and white skimmer bowl from the late 16th century.

It is 9.5 cm high and 22 cm in diameter.

The body is slightly larger, but the shape is the same.

Of course, there are also different types of vessels, such as an early fifteenth century or "transitional period" blue and white Dun-style bowl.

It is 12 cm high and 29 cm in diameter.

In addition, there are many large plates, such as a large plate with blue and white branches, grape pattern, flat mouth and folded edges, with a diameter of 37.5 cm.

A blue and white flat-bottomed basin with folded rim, 8 cm high and 30 cm in diameter.

To put it into perspective, these are not even the largest. The largest one is a blue and white mountain stone with plant and flower patterns on the edge of the plate, with a diameter of 63.5 cm.

These plates, some big and some small, are special works among them.

In addition to these plates and bowls, the remaining porcelain is still very large, generally more than forty centimeters in diameter.

For example, there is a blue and white lion rolling hydrangea wrapped with silk ribbons and a flat edge, and a Yuan blue and white phoenix pattern with a large diameter of 57.3 cm.

There are many plates like this, such as the blue and white eight-treasure phoenix pattern with a rhombus edge and the blue and white ground white flower cloud shoulder and phoenix pattern with a rhombus edge.

Others include blue and white large plates with banana leaves, melons and fruits, a large round mouth, blue and white large plates with lotus pond and mandarin duck patterns, blue and white large plates with double phoenixes on a blue ground and white flowers, large plates with rhombus patterns, and blue and white large plates with lotus pond patterns.

These Yuan blue and white flowers were elegant and exquisite. At that time, they were not only popular in the Yuan Dynasty palaces, but also in Western palaces. They were the objects of wealthy and noble families, and they were regarded as treasures whenever they bought them.

Otherwise, there would not be so many exquisite Yuan blue and white porcelain left on a Silk Road in the desert.

It was also through this trade route that Yuan blue and white produced in China entered the West.

This is why the most exquisite Yuan blue and white flowers in the world are not in our country, but are hidden in palaces in foreign countries!

For example, in the world, only the Yuan blue and white flowers collected by Topkapi Palace have clear inheritance records.

Moreover, many of these Yuan blue and white flowers are unique in the world.

This actually records a prosperous history of cultural and trade exchanges between China and foreign countries.

These porcelains were not fired for Chinese people at that time, but were made specifically for Arabs in West Asia.

If you look carefully at the porcelain of past dynasties in China, you will find that the design and shape of Yuan blue and white are very different from those of the porcelain before and after it.

These porcelains change the simple and clean Chinese aesthetic with their complicated and detailed pattern layout.

Through the Silk Road, Chinese porcelain spread to Central and Western Asia, where it was universally loved by princes and nobles and became a symbol of their pursuit of fashionable enjoyment and luxury.

In order to meet their own religious, cultural and practical requirements, businessmen from West Asia brought mineral materials to production areas such as Jingzhen in my country and placed orders directly.

Exquisite porcelain products are shipped to all parts of the world via my country's two "Silk Roads", both land and water. Our website:
