After learning how to make blue and white and green glaze, Chen Wenzhe can do many things.
If he wanted to, he could even imitate a batch of jade tablets.
Anyway, if the celadon glaze is made and the color is good, it will be as warm and moist as jade, especially the plum celadon glaze, which can be used to make jade tablets and jade boxes, which are really beautiful.
In his own studio, Chen Wenzhe can express his talents at will.
So after coming down, instead of talking to Niba, Chen Wenzhe opened an electric kiln and took out a dozen boxes from it.
Inside is the purple clay pot he made a few days ago. There is no horizontal pot, only ribbed pots.
For example, grapefruit pots, pumpkin pots, etc. Compared with making them randomly, Chen Wenzhe put more care into these ribbed pots.
The rib patterns are commonly divided into three, six, eight, nine, twelve, eighteen and thirty-six petals, which can be divided vertically and horizontally, and can also be processed by convolutions.
A successful ribbed purple clay pot has ribs that change in depth and depth as the shape changes.
The rib lines are clear and exquisitely made. You can change the direction of the lid and close it to the mouth, and it will fit perfectly.
The pot body, lid, pot knob, and pot bottom constitute the main shape, and each vertical point is composed of its own plane shape.
The key to making ribbed pots is that there must be no deviation even by a millimeter, otherwise the lids will not be able to fit together or be converted to each other.
For example, Chen Wenzhe made a lotus seed pot with red mud rib patterns. It is not only the proportion of the shape, but more importantly, the main rib lines of the pot body and the mouth are connected to the Qi, so the bonding and the trimming of the mouth are a perfect combination.
It is a very detailed work, and only when it is done patiently and in one go will the work be as wonderful as nature itself.
Ribbed pots can be made in ever-changing ways, so you won’t get bored making them. Therefore, Chen Wenzhe makes the most ribbed pots.
Among potters throughout the ages, there were many who had the same idea as him, and there was no shortage of people who were good at this.
For example, Dong Han's "Linghua Style Pot" in the Ming Dynasty, Shi Dabin's "Eighteen-petal Melon Edge Pot", and Chen Mingyuan's "Pumpkin Pot" in the Qing Dynasty were all imitated by Chen Wenzhe.
Of course, he can only imitate now and cannot innovate.
It's just that the works he's imitating now are all from Yi Niantang, not Shi Dabin, Chen Mingyuan, or simply Gu Jingzhou.
Chen Wenzhe now has some self-confidence, and naturally he will no longer do deceptive things.
After more than a dozen teapots came out of the kiln, Chen Wenzhe opened them one by one and examined them carefully.
In the end, everything was fired successfully, which is the perfect embodiment of master-level kiln firing craftsmanship.
It's a pity that his current level of making rib pots is still at the professional level.
Although he can clearly feel the improvement in his level, he still won't be able to break through to the master level for a while.
Come to think of it, he still needs more practice or something new?
It's too far away to think about this. After all, he is only twenty-one years old and will have plenty of time to study such issues in the future.
I found some beautifully made small wooden boxes and put the purple clay teapots into the boxes.
There were some tea bowls in the box, eight in total.
In Dongshan Province, a tea set consists of one pot and eight bowls. Because when guests come, the banquet is made to seat eight people.
The tea bowl is not the earliest twelve-flower god cup made by Chen Wenzhe, because the batch of tea sets was burned.
The Flower God Cup is made of multicolored porcelain. Apart from blue and white materials, Chen Wenzhe is a beginner in mixing other materials. What good colored materials can he mix with such a level?
Therefore, the final fired product is naturally not satisfactory.
Later, Chen Wenzhe simply made a batch of luminous purple clay cups, and used the unique Yingying Baoguang.
Therefore, although this batch of fired cups is full of fire, there is a layer of fluorescence on the outside.
Coupled with the bright firelight, these cups look even more beautiful.
Chen Wenzhe plans to take out such a batch of high-quality purple clay wares to test the waters.
While he had nothing to do today, he planned to take this batch of fourteen sets of purple clay pots and put them in the store to see if they could sell them. If they couldn't sell them, he would have to ask Zhang Yijie for help.
Although Zhang Yijie is a little worse than Li Qingtian, his sales skills are still very good.
The car was left at the antique mall yesterday. When I went to the store today, I naturally couldn't drive it.
As for the other car in the family, it has become Chen Qingchuan's exclusive car. It is a nanny car for the elderly, weak, women and children in the family.
It just so happened that Zheng Yu had something to do with him today, so he naturally captured Zheng Yu's young man and asked him to pick him up.
At half past eight, Zheng Yu arrived on time.
"What are these?" Zheng Yu looked at a large pile of wooden boxes in surprise and asked.
"Teapot, do you want to buy one for your dad? It's not expensive this time. It's only 8,000 for a set. If you want the teapot alone, it's 5,000. Eight cups cost 3,200."
"Let's take a look!" As for the price, Zheng Yudao didn't think it was too expensive. What he was most interested in was the stuff.
As long as the product is good, price is not an issue.
"Let's take a look at it when we get to the store. I finally packed it."
Stopping Zheng Yu's movement, the two of them got into the car.
In the morning, there was still a lot of traffic in Dahai City, so it took them half an hour to get to the Antique City.
The bank here happened to be open, and Chen Wenzhe took out the small enamel lotus bowl that he had stored here yesterday.
"Is this the Kangxi imperial enamel color you missed yesterday?" Zheng Yu grabbed it carefully.
Carefully but resolutely, Zheng Yu directly deprived Chen Wenzhe of his rights and let this treasure fall into his hands.
"How did you know?"
"When you called, Chen Xingchen was right next to Professor Tao. If he knew, we all knew."
What else can Chen Wenzhe say? I blame Professor Tao for not keeping it confidential?
Don't talk nonsense. Professor Tao probably didn't think that this one was genuine at that time.
Besides, this kind of thing cannot be kept secret. For example, Professor Tao, if he wants to inquire about market conditions, he naturally has to entrust his friends.
After going back and forth like this, many people in the industry will know everything.
When Chen Wenzhe asked Professor Tao to find Tang Qin, he heard Professor Tao say that he had many friends working in auction houses.
If you want to inquire about market conditions, you must ask these friends.
And as long as the people at the auction house know about it, the entire Dahai City Antique Shop will probably know about it.
Now, I am afraid that the entire antique shop is circulating the legend of the appearance of a small rouge-red enamel lotus bowl made by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty.
Zheng Yu asked curiously: "Is this thing really worth more than 70 million? This is the real leakage!"
"What are you picking up? I spent 10 million to buy it. Does this count as picking up a leak?"
"You didn't object, so this thing is really worth 70 million?"
"Not necessarily. We won't know how much it's worth until it's sold."
"Haha, you want to say that, I sold it for you? I will definitely sell it for you at a high price. Don't doubt it, my dad still knows many rich people."
