This flat pot has a broken mouth and a flat body. Four lotus flowers are painted on the pot body. The patterns on the front and back are the same.
The handle is decorated with cloud patterns. This pot is very exquisite. Unfortunately, the cellar collapsed and this precious flat pot was smashed.
However, even if it is not cleaned at this time, you can still see that the blue and white colors of this pot are bright.
You can also see that the blue and white color is halo-like and has silver crystals that go deep into the fetal bones.
This color must be the imported "Su Ma Li Qing material".
In addition to this flat pot, there is also a precious Yuan blue and white mandarin duck play basin, which unfortunately broke into three pieces.
Chen Wenzhe pieced it together and found that it could still be put together. It was a complete device that could be repaired.
Looking at the others, some plates can actually be pieced together.
In this way, as long as the restoration skills are skillful enough, these exquisite porcelains can be perfectly restored.
Chen Wenzhe took a closer look and found that there were a total of 2 blue and white mandarin duck plates here.
The two mandarin duck plates have rounded lips and converging mouths. They are decorated with 6 twining chrysanthemums on the lower edge of the outer wall, and there are patterns of lotus and mandarin ducks playing in the water on the bottom.
The plate has rich patterns, clear priorities, pure white texture, flashes of green in the white, uniform glaze color, and exquisite shape. It is a typical Yuan blue and white porcelain plate.
1 piece of blue and white dragon pattern plate. This piece is not big, but very exquisite.
The diameter of the plate is 15.9 cm and the height is 3.1 cm.
In particular, the outer edge of the dragon pattern plate is decorated with seven twining chrysanthemums, the inner wall is covered with patterns, and there is a dragon on the bottom of the plate.
The green dragon is a dragon with a round body, a wide mouth, forked horns, a long and slender body, and fine scales. The dragon is a three-clawed dragon with sharp claws.
This dragon pattern plate, like the blue and white mandarin duck plate, is a typical blue and white utensil of the Yuan Dynasty.
1 celadon-colored peony pattern plate, a celadon-glazed porcelain plate.
The bottom of the plate is decorated with a peony pattern, the glaze is green and deep, and the peony pattern is smooth.
This plate is 4 cm high, 16.5 cm in diameter, and 2.3 cm deep. It should be Yaozhou kiln porcelain.
After cleaning the plates, there were some broken goblets.
After sorting it out, I found that there were actually two pieces. One should be a blue and white dragon-patterned goblet.
The other piece is a phoenix pattern goblet. Although the two cups are also broken, all parts are well preserved.
Put together, it still feels very beautiful.
The dragon pattern goblet is a trumpet-shaped tall cup with a round foot. The inner wall is decorated with a curly grass pattern, and the outer wall is decorated with a dragon pattern.
The dragon is a flying dragon with a protruding nose, a wide mouth, forked horns that are tilted back, and its body scales are in a diagonal grid pattern. The dragon is also a three-clawed dragon.
The phoenix pattern goblet is the same as the dragon pattern goblet, and the materials are the same. The phoenix pattern is slightly simpler than the dragon pattern.
After cleaning up these small fragments, the last large piece left was a jar.
This is a rust flower jar. It has a flat lip, a wide mouth, a short neck, and is decorated with rust flowers throughout.
The neck and shoulders of the jar are decorated with four string patterns, with water ripples in the middle. The belly is decorated with banana leaf patterns, and the texture is fine.
Its overall height is 12 cm, its diameter is 8.8 cm, its belly diameter is 15 cm, and its base diameter is 6.5 cm.
Seeing this jar, Chen Wenzhe thought of the video he had watched.
He knew that in addition to this broken jar, there were also rust-flower double-series jars, celadon-glazed jars and other utensils found this time.
Finally, Chen Wenzhe looked at the most precious flat pot.
The 12 pieces of damaged Yuan blue and white porcelain unearthed this time have exquisite shapes and simple and dignified objects. They are rare Yuan blue and white fine products.
Among them, the damaged Yuan blue and white flat pot is the most exquisite and precious.
This Yuan blue and white flat kettle, which was made using imported raw materials and Chinese craftsmanship, is a testament to the fine craftsmanship of Yuan blue and white. Unfortunately, it was damaged. This is the most regrettable thing.
After sorting out the porcelain, it couldn't be repaired for a while, so Chen Wenzhe simply put it down.
Along with this batch of broken porcelain came back many photos.
A large number of photos were taken of each of the porcelain excavated this time from various angles.
The existence of these photos can be said to be archived, or it can be said to give Chen Wenzhe a sneak peek.
Looking back at these photos, Chen Wenzhe discovered that the amount of porcelain found this time was beyond his expectation.
It can be said that all kinds of fine porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty have been found here, it is just a question of how much.
In fact, if you think about it, you will know that how can something that can be treasured and placed in a cellar be defective?
Although the porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty is not famous in history, as long as people live, they must have some porcelain, such as bowls, plates, bottles, pots, jars, etc.
Therefore, like other dynasties, the porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty mainly consisted of bowls, plates, bottles, pots, and jars.
Then there are some creative works, such as goblets, goblets, etc.
There are also some porcelain sculptures, but they are mostly figures.
These utensils have unique shapes and exquisite craftsmanship, perfectly demonstrating the superb artistic level of Yuan people in making porcelain.
Particularly worth mentioning are the bowls (cups) of Yuan Dynasty porcelain.
The bowls (cups) of the Yuan Dynasty are mainly high-footed bowls (either open or closed) and large bowls with a diameter of more than 30 cm.
In addition to large bowls, the shapes of small bowls in the Yuan Dynasty are also quite beautiful, including high-foot bowls, curled-mouth bowls, and bent-waist bowls. The shapes are very rich.
Goblet cups are generally small in shape, only about 10 centimeters long, so they are also known as "target cups".
Then there is the plate category. Some exquisite large plates are relatively common in Yuan Dynasty porcelain.
The production of these large plates is very rare, so they are called "national treasures".
The diameter of large plates is generally between 40 and 50 centimeters, and the largest one is even about 58 centimeters.
There are two main types of rims for the market: rhombus rims and round rims.
Among them, the oral disk of the rhombus is only divided into petals along the mouth edge, usually with sixteen petals.
In terms of decoration techniques, the rhombus mouth plate has both blue and white.
Of course, there are also white flowers on a blue ground, while round-mouth plates are generally blue and white.
Apart from bowls and plates, the most popular ones are bottles.
The porcelain bottles of the Yuan Dynasty mainly include wall vases, plum vases, jade spring vases, garlic vases, animal ear vases, through-ear vases, square vases, elephant ear vases, gourd vases, four series flat vases, etc.
In addition, there are also tower-type bottles with lids, among which the plum vase and the jade pot spring vase are the most common types.
Bottles can also be clad with plastic, reflecting the colorful porcelain art style of the Yuan Dynasty.
There were so many bottles in the Yuan Dynasty, and there were many types of vessels. Everyone should know why, right?
It’s because ethnic minorities like wine. If they want to drink, they must have storage tools.
For example, the plum vase is just for decoration, while the jade pot spring vase can also be used as a wine jug.
Therefore, in addition to various bottles, one of the most popular types of porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty was pots.
Among the Yuan Dynasty porcelain pots, there are mainly phoenix-headed flat pots, pear-shaped pots, small handle pots, multi-mu pots, flat square pots, small study pots, etc.
Among them, Duomu teapots are generally smaller in size, while the mouth of the flat square teapot is in the shape of a plum bottle and the body is in the shape of a flat pot.
Let's talk about wine bottles and wine storage plum bottles, etc., then naturally cans are indispensable.
