Chapter 1856: Porcelain has hair and is not worth a cent
By carefully observing the characteristics of the glaze, it is often easy to identify the authenticity of a porcelain.
Due to different eras and regions, there are more or less obvious differences in the glaze composition and firing methods.
Therefore, when identifying a piece of ceramics, you must never leave this aspect of careful observation.
When observing the enamel of ancient porcelain, you should generally pay attention to the thickness of the enamel, the newness and oldness of the luster, and the size and density of the bubbles.
It can be said that if the ears, eyes, and hands are used together, it will not be limited to the surface or stuck in one pattern.
All kinds of imitations, such as repainting old blanks with new colors, replenishing the glaze to enhance the color, losing the old color and repainting it, as well as using old white glaze ware with new dark flowers and markings, should be studied with caution.
Regarding these identification techniques, Chen Wenzhe is already at the master level. Now he can't tell the authenticity at a glance, but he can easily tell whether a work is good or not by looking carefully.
After all, his craftsmanship is there. He knows exactly whether a work is easy to make, what technology is used, and how much it ultimately costs to bake it.
If he can't identify an antique in this way, then his years of appraising can be said to have been in vain.
Therefore, he easily recognized that such a piece of onion-white white porcelain must be the very rare Ru kiln white glazed porcelain.
This is a Ru kiln white glaze cup. It can even be called the only onion root white Ru kiln cup in the world.
It is a rare and important piece of evidence that exposes the celadon counterfeiting as Ru kiln. It is also a rare and important piece of evidence that exposes the fraud case of auctioning celadon worth more than 200 million yuan.
Its existence is an important piece of evidence to eradicate Pan Heng’s huge system of false celadon Ru kiln lies in the country!
Well, there are too many interest groups involved, so it goes without saying.
Because understanding it can also deepen people's understanding of the crab claw pattern and the color of the azure glaze in the worm-shaped form of Ru kiln, as well as the understanding of the gold thread wrapped around Ru kiln.
Understanding the location where the crab claw pattern of Ru kiln is easily visible in the shape of the vessel helps people not to forget the existence of this precious egg-white Ru kiln.
Of course, a cup is definitely not as important as a teapot.
Let’s look at the true characteristics of the Ru kiln Pulu teapot, a high-end ancient porcelain from the Northern Song Dynasty, and we will know that it is definitely a masterpiece among the Ru kilns.
Its color is azure, quite white and tender.
This is a high-end Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty that is also known as the white snow with green features in the white snow in spring.
The porcelain is made of sweet white material and can be called Ru kiln sweet white porcelain.
What's mysterious about it is that it appears azure under natural light.
This is the earliest and most fashionable azure porcelain produced in the Northern Song Dynasty. The standard azure color is the high-end blue and white porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty.
The porcelain body is suspected to have been mixed with sumac green material, and Yuan blue and white porcelain is only similar to the porcelain body with azure glaze.
Therefore, it can be called the Yingqing azure-glazed gold-wrapped Ru kiln Pulu pot.
The glaze color and exquisite decoration of Ru kiln azure-glazed Pulu pots in the Northern Song Dynasty also became the main porcelain-making culture that contained cyan in the white body inherited from Yuan and Ming blue and white.
But this color has clearly appeared on this porcelain.
I saw that this teapot has a body with a lid, high
The waist of the vessel is curved, and the body of the vessel is opened downwards, showing the shape of a pot and a reed, as well as the shape of a Shang bronze vessel.
From the waist to the mouth of the pot, make double tracing lines.
The tracing lines are interspersed with purple, scarlet, and white for decals and plain three-color filling.
This kind of color is superior to five colors in form.
The inner wall of the pot shows the characteristic of tiny [rice chaff] defects. This feature is only found in Ru ware with high-end fine onion root white and azure glazes in the early and middle Northern Song Dynasty.
Characteristics of early insect books, and crab claw characteristics of insect books;
It has watery eyes, brown eyes like spittle stars, and hundreds of tiny sesame nails.
This feature is very consistent with the characteristics of Ru kiln in ancient legends and historical records.
There are obviously metal wires to reinforce the porcelain body. If you have never seen this kind of porcelain, it will be too difficult to imitate it.
Then there is Bao Guang, which has very obvious patina and has the characteristics of silk-like patina.
Bottom, Chinese pinyin and English, artistic commercial logo.
This base will be used as the basis for foreign trade porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty, which makes modern collectors stunned.
On the lid of the Pu Lu pot, there is the earliest gas hole in history.
Only with this spirit can one have an authentic way of tea tasting, which is called a luxurious tea set in ancient porcelain.
Facing the light, the surface has an obvious fiberglass texture.
This is obviously an inheritance of the white porcelain injection method of the Xing kiln of the Tang Dynasty, and the glass texture has no tendency to diminish at all. It should be a high-end fine porcelain Ru kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty.
From its bottom, it shows that the fine porcelain of the Northern Song Dynasty has completely abandoned the pin firing technology of the Tang Xing kiln and the Eastern Jin, Sui and Tang celadon!
The surface of the Ru kiln Pulu teapot that has been around for thousands of years has no Mangkou-style opening characteristics.
As the old saying goes, if porcelain has hair, it’s not worth a cent!
It is much more delicate than the porcelain of the Qing Dynasty that was prone to hairiness and ice cracks!
Only when you see this kind of treasure of porcelain can you know what high-end and fine porcelain is, and what the Northern Song Dynasty Ru Kiln azure glaze is.
It’s no wonder that this kind of azure-glazed porcelain can make poets feel so comfortable.
Its decal craftsmanship and decoration are also unique.
It is the best of typical ancient porcelain and a fine product passed down from generation to generation among the people.
The Pulu teapot should also be the first Ru kiln prototype recorded in historical records, and the first practical porcelain for daily life that can be confirmed.
High-end Ru kiln porcelain ranks first among all porcelains in terms of porcelain feel.
Because egg white, insect script features, crab claw features, saliva stars, small nails wrapped with gold wire, very thin, brown eyes, and Ru juice from Ru kiln, a total of eight characteristics of ancient porcelain are consistent with the characteristics most confirmed in historical records.
When this coincidence cannot rule out that it is a Ru kiln, the original decals, glazed decorations and text on the Ru kiln artifacts should be recognized as precious historical culture of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Undoubtedly, the Ru kiln Pu Lu pot made us know that the grass-flower decoration and applique technique was a fashionable porcelain glazed decoration technique in the Northern Song Dynasty.
The coarse celadon collected by Qianlong and pretending to be Ru kiln is not qualified to steal this limelight, not even the ordinary foreign trade porcelain!
Ru kiln's high-end foreign trade porcelain base, even looking at it now, can still make counterfeiters stunned!
The above characteristics confirm that the Pulu teapot is a high-end Ru kiln trade porcelain from the late Northern Song Dynasty.
It is also the first standard piece of ancient porcelain handed down from generation to generation. It is a "Shang Bronze Type" tea kettle.
It has about the same characteristics as the Pulu teapot that was appreciated by Gao Lian, a connoisseur of the Ming Dynasty, with only dozens of small nails, but this one has hundreds of small nails.
So it is the ancient legendary azure-glazed Ru kiln, a god-grade noble ancient porcelain wrapped with gold fine silk.
It should be the first time in modern history that the standard color of the azure glaze of Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty was disclosed.
It is also the first time to disclose the gold wire wrapping Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty, the first time to reveal its mysterious shape, its porcelain quality and the dipping process.
Its value is reflected in the different porcelain textures of the same Ru kiln.
This confirmed Ru kiln white porcelain is significantly different from Ru kiln celadon, especially azure glaze porcelain. So, does Ru kiln produce celadon or white porcelain? This is now very controversial.
