"The most intuitive impression of the blank period porcelain is that there were many private kilns. After successively verifying several pieces of genuine blank period official kiln porcelain, the theory that there were official kilns during the blank period was gradually confirmed!"
Li Yang said softly, and the people around him nodded in agreement. What Li Yang said is all basic common sense. Everyone knows that in the past, there was a saying that there was no official kiln during the blank period.
"In fact, official kiln porcelain was indeed produced during the blank period, and the official kiln porcelain during the blank period also had some characteristics that private kilns did not have at that time!"
Li Yang changed the subject and spoke slowly. Lao Liang and several people around him looked directly at Li Yang.
Li Yang looked around, and there were about twenty people paying attention to him. Others around him were very curious, wondering why so many people were listening to a young man.
"First of all, the first point is that the blue and white porcelain of the official kiln porcelain during the blank period is firm and clean, the glaze is fine, smooth and moist, and there are no flakes. These are characteristics that folk kilns do not have, or rarely have!"
Raising his hand, Li Yang pointed to the big plate on the table and continued: "Let's take this plate. The bottom is exposed, and the glaze is very delicate. Ordinary folk kilns cannot bake such good things!
"
When Li Yang said this, many people immediately took a closer look at the blue and white plate placed on the table, even Lao Liang, even though he had seen this plate many times.
"Yes, it is rare for private kilns to produce such good rice, but only very few. It cannot be said that private kilns cannot produce it. At that time, private kilns designated by large families could still do this.
!”
The man holding the blue and white pen holder said something, and everyone around him nodded. It was difficult for Li Yang to convince them based on this alone, but what Li Yang said was indeed correct.
Li Yang didn't pay attention, smiled, and continued: "Folk kilns can produce such grains, but there is one thing that folk kilns cannot do, and that is the orange peel pattern on it, which was inherited from the Xuande period.
The firing technique was passed down from generation to generation, which was also one of the characteristics of official kiln porcelain at that time!"
As soon as Li Yang finished speaking, several heads leaned over and looked carefully at the blue and white plate that they had seen many times before.
Orange peel pattern is a characteristic of Xuande porcelain. If it is well made, it is also called orange peel glaze. Many people know this, and these are fans of blue and white porcelain. Orange peel pattern is also a characteristic of Xuande porcelain.
.
“I have really fine cellulite lines!”
The person holding the blue and white pen holder screamed first. The folk kiln porcelain of the blank period did not have such orange peel marks. Although Li Yang's point did not convince him that this was official kiln porcelain, his suspicion was not that great.
.
"It's so detailed, why didn't I notice it before?"
Another person also sighed, and Lao Liang chuckled: "If you discover it, then you are also an expert!"
Lao Liang's words made everyone laugh quietly, and everyone looked up at Li Yang, wanting to hear Li Yang continue to comment.
Li Yang smiled slightly and continued: "Except for the orange peel pattern, the glaze layer of the entire plate is thin, bright and transparent, the glaze color is watery blue, and there is a sauce glaze along the mouth. These are the characteristics of official kiln porcelain.
The kiln wants to make these so perfect, it’s not impossible, but it’s very difficult!”
Everyone nodded. These are indeed the characteristics of official kiln porcelain. It is true that private kilns can produce such good porcelain. However, it was very difficult for the three dynasties during the blank period. The official kilns were struggling to support it, let alone
Let’s talk about folk kilns.
A few people have begun to agree with Li Yang's words. This plate is most likely an official kiln porcelain from the blank period.
Some people even looked at Lao Liang with envy. If it was really an official kiln porcelain from the blank period, then the value of this blue and white plate would have greatly increased. It was originally at most 200,000, but now it is at least 500,000 or 600,000. If it is put up for auction
If so, it may be even higher.
"That's one, and there's another two!"
Li Yang said calmly, and everyone put away their thoughts and concentrated all their energy on listening to Li Yang's comments.
"The second point is the blue and white pigment. Have you noticed what the blue material of this blue and white plate is?" Li Yang looked at everyone with a smile and asked first.
"Suma Liqing, right?"
One person answered uncertainly, and several others looked at the porcelain plate without saying a word, but they all nodded silently. They also agreed that this was Suma Liqing material. After all, Suma Liqing material is still the same as domestic green material.
There is a certain difference. They are not experts and do not have the ability to tell the difference at a glance, but they can still tell the difference after comparison.
"You are right, this is indeed Suma Liqing, but there are good and bad Suma Liqings!"
A smile appeared on Li Yang's face again, and he stood in front of the plate with a strong sense of confidence: "Su Ma Li Qing was used in four periods, the Yuan Dynasty was the first, and Hongwu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was the third
The second and the third period are from the Yongxuan period. Almost all porcelains in the Yongxuan period used imported green materials, which brought the role of this green material to the extreme. The fourth period was the blank period when orthodoxy began.
Got it!"
"Suma Liqing is good, but its requirements for heat are too high. During the interregnum, society was unstable. The imperial court also issued a ban on burning. At this time, a few porcelain burners still had the thought to balance and control the heat.
?From this time on, many kiln entrances of private kilns chose domestic green materials 'Huiqing' or other materials, and these domestic green materials gradually replaced Suma Liqing in folk kilns!"
Li Yang spoke slowly, and the people around him nodded again. They had never heard of what Li Yang said, but it made sense. Hui Qing was indeed the main Qing material during the Chenghua years after the blank period.
"Even if a lot of folk kilns use Huiqing, it doesn't prove that this plate is from an official kiln, right?"
Someone asked very confusedly, and everyone looked up at Li Yang. This was also their common doubt. Li Yang explained the conversion of green materials, but all this seemed to have nothing to do with their theme, and there was no way to prove that this plate was
It's not an official kiln.
"There is a way to prove it!" Li Yang waved his hand and continued: "Because this blue and white plate uses the best suma-li-qing cobalt material. Only this kind of green material can be fired to produce the color that emanates from the plate.
The color of indigo makes the overall blue and white look gorgeous, clear and transparent. The effect produced by this kind of green material is similar to that of Yongxuan. If you look carefully, it is not difficult to see that in terms of blue and white, this plate is similar to Xuande porcelain.
There is a huge resemblance!”
Before Li Yang finished speaking, everyone turned to look at the plate. Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at it. They were all collectors. They didn't know as much as experts, but they also knew some basic common sense.
Through this, it is found that the blue and white of this plate is indeed very similar to the blue and white of some Xuande official kiln porcelain. If the frame and painter were different, everyone would probably think that this is Xuande porcelain.
"Mr. Li, do you mean that the Su Ma Li Qing material used in this plate is the best, the same as in the Xuande period?" Someone seemed to understand something and said softly.
"Even if it's the same, it has nothing to do with the official kiln!" Someone frowned and asked again.
"Idiot, you've made the blue and white porcelain of the Xuande official kiln, and you still say it has nothing to do with the official kiln?"
Someone next to this person couldn't help but say something, and several people around him laughed. At this time, everyone understood what Li Yang meant.
The green material of this porcelain is the same as that of the Xuande official kiln, so there is no other explanation other than that it was fired in the official kiln.
It is impossible to produce this kind of effect when fired at the mouth of a private kiln. This kind of high-quality green material was strictly restricted at the time, and could only be used in official kilns, not in private kilns.
Besides, private kilns don’t even use ordinary suma-liqing, let alone this high-quality suma-liqing material, which is very expensive and requires higher firing requirements.
"So you could tell from the blue and white color, why didn't I think of that!"
The man holding the blue and white pen holder murmured, and he remembered what Li Yang said just now: Old people can talk. The fact is that this plate actually told them a lot, but they didn't realize it.
But this is also the difference between ordinary collectors and experts. Experts look for these subtleties and dig out the characteristics. If everyone can find them, then everyone is an expert.
Judging from the reaction of the man holding the pen holder, he already believed that this was official kiln porcelain. After all, Li Yang's evidence was really sufficient, and he really couldn't think of a reason to refute it.
"The green material is made of the high-grade Suma Liqing unique to the official kilns. This is the second piece of evidence, and there is the third one!"
Everyone's eyes widened again. These two pieces of evidence had reduced their suspicion to a minimum, and they all began to believe that this was a piece of official kiln porcelain. They did not expect that Li Yang had a third piece of evidence.
"Everyone, look at the balance on this plate. This is the third piece of evidence!"
Li Yang pointed at the bottom of the plate and said, this plate has a designation, but it is not the year, but other characters.
"Yuchi water, Qiongyao wine!"
Someone slowly read out the six-character invoice at the bottom of the plate, and many people still had puzzled looks on their faces.
The official kiln porcelain of the blank period does not have the year mark, but it does not mean that they do not have other calligraphy. In fact, many folk kiln porcelains of this period also have calligraphy, but there are not many official kiln porcelains with calligraphy.
This was also one of the reasons why they attributed this porcelain to a folk kiln. Now that Li Yang mentioned this and said that this was the third proof, everyone seemed even more confused.
"Mr. Li, please make it clear!"
The person holding the pen holder bent slightly. He was really convinced by Li Yang now. Unfortunately, he didn't see anything special about these characters, which made his heart feel very itchy.
It's like someone telling you a huge secret. You were listening to the first half of it with great interest, but then it disappeared at the critical moment. It's great that this person didn't go crazy on the spot.

Second update, I have been out for a long time and the update time is a little late.
To be honest, Xiaoyu really forgot about the new book, but there is no difference between 11th place and 10th place, just like the feeling between fourth place and the bronze medal. Now the gap between us and the previous one is only single digits, let's work hard to pay off
Can go up.
Xiaoyu continues to code. Friends, can you make up the gap? Let’s rush forward again!
