Chapter 1,213 Just pick it up

The pagoda is a sacred temple dedicated to Buddha bones. There are mostly underground palaces under it, and the underground palace is a mysterious place for burial objects.

Such objects of Ding kiln (including other kilns) are extremely rare.

Based on this, it is inferred that this porcelain sedan chair should also belong to the ranks of underworld objects and is specially burned for burial.

This white-glazed brown-colored sedan uses a variety of decorative techniques such as molding, stacking, hollowing, embossing, carving, and dot coloring.

It is a more complex type of inlay instruments. Inlay instruments are a type that distinguishes them from carved instruments and round instruments.

Every time he saw this porcelain sedan chair, Chen Wenzhe couldn't help but sigh at the intelligence of the Ding Kiln craftsmen.

They brought the art of earth and fire to the extreme.

As long as they can be expressed in porcelain, they can do everything, and this Ding Kiln artifact is an example.

The most important thing is that it truly reproduces the image of four people in the Northern Song Dynasty (sedan) and is a rare fine product in Ding Kiln bionic porcelain.

To make such a piece of porcelain, you need to use crafts such as molding, stacking, hollowing, embossing, engraving, and coloring.

As long as there is a craftsmanship here, if it does not meet the standards, it will definitely not be able to make such a fine porcelain.

It can be said that this piece of porcelain has fully reflected the characteristics of Ding Kiln.

The body is thin and light, the body is white and slightly yellow, firm but not transparent, the glaze is extremely thin, and the glaze is bright and bright.

It can be seen that the fetus is firm and has a high degree of porcelain, and even reaches a semi-rebirth.

As long as porcelain of the grade like Ding Kiln porcelain sedan can be successfully imitated, Chen Wenzhe's imitation of Ding Kiln technology can reach the peak level.

After that, imitate some simple porcelains with utensils, and you can achieve the state of being ingenious and not craftsmanship.

So, after just completing the production of three porcelain sedans, Chen Wenzhe couldn't help but want to try his skills.

He felt that this time his skills had made another huge breakthrough.

"Just make thin porcelain bowls!"

There are a lot of porcelain unearthed in the underground palace of Shizushiji Temple, after all, there are more than 100 pieces!

These porcelains were donated by the great officials of the past, or were directly donated by the royal family.

Therefore, even bowls and plates are all at the level of imperial porcelain for the palace.

With such a group of treasures as specimens, Chen Wenzhe quickly came up with a plan.

He had made thin-body porcelain in the past, but now he wants to see if he can do better with thin-body porcelain in Ding Kiln.

Some bowls, plates and other utensils in Ding Kiln have extremely thin tire thickness.

Even the thickness of a large plate with a diameter of 30 cm is only 2 to 4 mm.

The white-glazed trumpet-mouthed bowl unearthed from the Jingshi Temple Underground Palace has only 1 mm at the thinnest edge.

There is also a white glaze "official" lotus pattern bowl with a lip less than 2 mm thick.

It can see through the lotus petal patterns on the outer wall with a light and pleasant sound.

This fully reflects the characteristics of Ding porcelain as "white as jade, thin as paper, and sound like chimes", which is amazing.

I made a trumpet bowl before, and this time I made a bowl with the Lotus Official style.

It is not difficult to simply imitate a bowl, mainly because of the change in glaze color.

If it is white glaze, everything is easy to say, just follow the normal procedures.

If it is a kiln change, you need to pay attention to the temperature, and it is ultimately just a choice of two glaze colors.

As long as you control the kiln temperature and want the glaze color, you can fire whatever porcelain you want.

Chen Wenzhe has made too many bowls, plates and plates.

At this time, as long as he used appropriate materials and according to the characteristics of the Ding Kiln in the Song Dynasty, he could make various porcelains as he pleased.

It can be said that you can pick it up at will without any delay.

Make a bowl and then a holder.

Any piece of porcelain he has taken here, regardless of whether the shape of the instrument is simple or not, is of great origin or in other words.

For example, this cup was also unearthed from the underground palace of Shizuji Temple.

This is a white-glazed "official" style fancy mouth holder with the character "天" in the Northern Song Dynasty, which matches this bowl with the character "天" in the character "天".

Since I made a holder, that plate would be normal.

What is the difference between a holder and a plate? There is almost no difference, but the shape and function of the instrument are slightly different, so there are two names.

This time he used the scratching technique, and the carved patterns were very rare. This time, the patterns carved by Chen Wenzhe were butterfly patterns that he did not often use.

The white glaze scratched flower-to-butterfly pattern plate is also a flower-mouth plate with the character "official" in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The diameter of this plate is 10.5 cm, the foot diameter is 5,7 cm, and the height is 2.7 cm.

The hairy feet of the mouth and flat bottom.

The mouth wall is in the shape of a five-curved flower pattern, and the inner bottom is also decorated with two cicada patterns with opposite wings, with a low circle foot, and a running script character "official".

Since it is burnt, there is a marble mouth. If you want to pay tribute to this plate, you must decorate it.

So, this is an authentic Shishiji Temple Underground White Glaze "official" gold-mounted mouth plate.

After making this piece, Chen Wenzhe looked at the plate in a daze. In fact, he thought of another kind of plate.

Among the Ding kiln ware, there is another type of plate, which is the Gaozu plate.

A white glaze flower mouth high-foot plate was unearthed from the underground palace of Jingzhi Temple. This white glaze flower mouth high-foot plate has a diameter of 14.7 cm, a base diameter of 9.7 cm and a height of 10 cm.

There are slurry tears on the outside, the plate is a five-curved cusp petal flower-shaped mouth, and the slanted belly is decorated with five-piece lotus flowers.

The tall foot is in the shape of a covered bowl, with no glazed inner wall and stringed patterns, and glaze is used to connect the plate.

It should be noted here that this kind of high-legged plate appeared in the Song Dynasty, not the Yuan Dynasty.

Many people in modern times say that such as high-foot cups and high-foot plates are all ethnic minorities, such as those used by the Mongolians in the Yuan Dynasty to drink, so they invented this type of instrument.

In fact, this statement is wrong. Maybe the high-football cups and other things became popular in the Yuan Dynasty, but the high-football cups and high-football plates appeared very early.

What I just mentioned is the high-zu plate of Ding Kiln in the Song Dynasty. In fact, this kind of porcelain was unearthed in the Tang Dynasty.

For example, Huishi Museum has a high foot plate with a height of 12.4 cm, a diameter of 14.9 cm, and a foot height of 9.5 cm.

This high-foot disc consists of two parts: foot and plate. The plate is open, slightly defective, with a thin arc wall, and a trumpet-shaped hollow high-foot. The end of the foot is slightly curled outward, and two sets of double string patterns are engraved.

The plate is shallow, and there are nail block marks left by burning other vessels in the plate. The inner part is printed with a circle of concave single-line string patterns, and the carcass is light yellow.

Some ice cracks remain on the curved abdomen, and most of the remaining glaze falls off.

It was identified by cultural relics experts as a Gaozu Pan of the Tang Dynasty and as a national third-level cultural relic.

There are many records about plates in ancient times, such as the "Records of the Grand Historian: Biography of Yu Qing of Pingyuan Jun" by Sima Qian of the Han Dynasty, "Mao Sui knelt in on the bronze plate and knelt in the King of Chu."

"The Book of Rites: Mourning Records" records "the tiles used in the mute".

"Who knew that every grain of food on the plate was hard-working" by Li Shen of the Tang Dynasty.

From then on, it can be seen that the plate was a common object for washing or placing objects in ancient times, at least among the nobles.

Although the plate is different from the high-foot plate, it is used the same way, and it is all served.

For example, when placing food, flat chassis and high foot tray can be paired with each other, and more food can be placed on a table of the same size.
