Picking up the plate and inspecting it carefully, Chen Wenzhe quickly determined that it was a large five-color plate from Ru Kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Because the surface of the plate shows the wrinkles, the dense spit stars, the brown eyes, and the dense tiny nails.
This is the unique characteristic of Song Wucai. Its glaze is only slightly brushed with slurry and then glazed. It maintains the original kiln-fired shape and highlights the characteristics of the original kiln-fired small pins.
The back of the disk shows more dense brown eye features of saliva stars, and the bottom surface shows the features of fine orange peel lines.
This kind of fine orange peel is different from the coarse porcelain orange peel with brown eyes. Currently, there are imitations of thick orange peel.
The edge of the plate is painted in yellow, and the inner plate has a composite base and a 4.5cm wide leaf, showing the characteristics of Shang bronze vessels;
The inner plate has a composite bottom, which is consistent with the shape of the Xing kiln silver snow lotus plate.
This feature is a typical feature of the daily practical utensil plates commonly used in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Then there is the highlight of water glass texture features. Since the white porcelain Song Wucai and egg white Ru kiln are fine porcelain, ordinary cameras cannot capture the characteristics of ancient porcelain, such as crab claws, fine orange peel lines, brown eyes, spit stars, and Ru kiln.
The grain pattern and small supporting nails appear, and real porcelain is often mixed in a large number of imitations.
Not to mention the small support nails. Without this obvious feature, the authentic product is often difficult to identify.
It does not appear at the bottom of Xing kiln and celadon, but is a kiln firing technique that is supported by nail firing.
Instead, its surface looks like iron nails that were almost driven on the opposite side of a wooden board. There are slightly raised small dots of supporting nails. When viewed from the side, they are very beautiful.
It is a typical feature of the Ru kiln five colors fired in the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty, and is also known as the famous Song five colors in the Northern Song Dynasty.
In fact, modern fake experts have never seen the small supporting nails that are characteristic of ancient porcelain, and they are deliberately pretentious and fraudulent!
There are several types of grass flowers commonly used in colored porcelain during the Song Dynasty, but there are two typical patterns.
One is the metal double-line stroke decoration on the upper part of the high-end Ru kiln, and the other is the three-flower pattern.
The three-flower pattern on the Ru kiln plate is the main colorful pattern of the Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Three bouquets of flowers represent a prosperous country, and three bouquets of three flowers represent nine, which actually means a long-lasting country!
It is difficult for ordinary people to identify such a Ru kiln plate because its coating characteristics are not very obvious.
It can be inferred from this that this variety was fired in large quantities in kilns at that time.
But it is the ancient porcelain with floral patterns that people dream of;
What you can often see in modern times are generally imitations of it.
However, it does exist, and because of its existence, it is the best physical evidence to reveal the true color of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Fake scholars generally believe that sweet white porcelain from Europe was introduced to my country in the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was the first to bake sweet white porcelain in history.
Also, enamel colored porcelain was introduced from Europe during the Qing Dynasty.
The emergence of Ru kiln's five colors completely overturns these two common perceptions!
After comparing the actual objects, it can be seen clearly that it was actually introduced to Europe from the sweet white porcelain of the Northern Song Dynasty or the five colors of the Song Dynasty made of Malun soil in the 12th century.
In the 15th century, Europe called this enamel color, and in the 17th century, it was introduced to the Qing Dynasty from Europe.
It can be seen from this that the enamel-colored porcelain continued to be fired during the Yong-Qian Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty originated from the porcelain-making culture of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Undoubtedly, handing over Song Wucai's historical porcelain-making culture patent is a stupid move by experts who are trying to fake ancient porcelain, a bunch of stupid pigs!
The disclosure of the colorful porcelain of the Song Dynasty in the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty is in line with the exquisite porcelain products of the peak period of historical porcelain production.
The history and culture of porcelain making initiated by the Han nation is something we have to talk about today!
Unfortunately, it is difficult to popularize this kind of knowledge. Even if Chen Wenzhe speaks loudly, only few people will hear it.
"Huh? This is a Pu Lu pot? It's a good imitation. It looks like it was at least imitated during the Republic of China."
Looking carefully at each one, from the golden wares, to the Yuan Dynasty multicolored wares, to the Song Dynasty multicolored wares, this time it can be said that there are many surprises.
Unexpectedly, at the end, I discovered something else.
The Ru kiln Pu Lu pot and the Emperor's imperial cup are not simple things.
It is said that in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, when the imperial palace was requisitioning royal porcelain, the master of Ru Kiln presented to the emperor an extremely white Ru Kiln teapot.
It appears white when viewed from a distance and bluish when viewed up close.
He knelt down in front of the imperial palace and said that one day, a common man was working in the kiln shed. He felt very tired for a while, leaned on his chair and fell asleep.
Suddenly, a gust of darkness and strong wind blew away the simple kiln shed.
A god in the sky spread the nectar from the purified water bottle to the world, and it suddenly started raining heavily.
But after only a short while, the sky became clear and fresh.
At this time, I suddenly saw a big crab swimming in the air, climbed onto the bulrush pot I made, lingered on the mouth of the pot for a while, and then entered the pot.
It drank up the rain and dew inside, climbed up to the mouth of the pot, stood on the handle of the pot, combed it, and peed on it.
When Xiaomin woke up, he looked anxiously at the half-finished pot I made, but there was no trace left.
But when Xiaomin took it to the kiln and fired it, he saw, wow! Wherever the crab walked, there were all paw prints left on it.
This is really God's will, but the bulrush pot has been contaminated with the spiritual energy of the divine crab.
This day is specially dedicated to the Emperor. I wish my Emperor long live! Long live! Long live!
This is just an interesting legend that gives us some daydreams.
In the past, many people had only heard of onion root white, but did not know that azure glaze gold wire was wrapped around Ru kiln, and onion root white gold wire was wrapped around Ru kiln.
The celadon glaze porcelain of Ru kiln is well known to the world, but not many people know about the white glaze of Ru kiln.
Many people even ask, did Ru kilns in the Song Dynasty have white fetuses?
This is for sure, Ru kiln only has "incense ash tires" and no white tires.
Ru kilns handed down from the Song Dynasty mainly used fragrant gray bodies. The body soils of official kiln porcelain in the Southern Song Dynasty were black brown, gray brown, gray and reddish brown.
So there are black and gray tires? No, only fragrant gray
Although there is no white body, there is white glazed porcelain.
Porcelain craftsmen in the late Song Dynasty did produce moon white glaze, but the real Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty was azure.
However, this does not mean that Ru kiln white glaze porcelain is not famous, such as sweet white glaze.
This kind of sweet white glaze porcelain is most famous from the Ru kiln produced in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Most of the white glazes produced by Ru kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty reached the level of being reborn and thin.
In particular, the out-of-body production process is extremely complex and requires dozens of processes.
The sweet white glaze is extremely shiny and can reflect human figures, and has a more obvious opalescence than the egg white glaze of Shufu kiln.
It gives people a gentle, sweet and pure feeling, so it is called sweet white, green onion root white, and is known as "white as gelatin, as white as snow".
The white glaze of Yongle white porcelain is called sweet white glaze, and few can be found in the world, let alone the sweet white glaze of Ru kiln in the Song Dynasty.
This is scallion root white, and few people probably know that it existed in the Song Dynasty.
This is mainly because it has been fired before, but the price was low. After becoming an official kiln, Ru kiln has not fired it.
Ru Kiln was originally a private kiln, but later it became an official kiln for tribute porcelain and its value doubled, ranking first among the five official kilns.
After becoming an official kiln, the colors of its celadon porcelain varied. No one knows when onion white porcelain was finally fired.
However, since the private kiln has only been fired, then it will definitely not be fired after becoming an official kiln?
