My system is not decent

After Yongzheng ascended the throne, although he was in the midst of heavy state affairs and government affairs, he entertained himself from time to time.

At this time, many palace artworks in the Yongzheng Dynasty began to be decorated with chrysanthemums.

For example, among the Yongzheng enamel colored porcelain, which is regarded as a treasure of the Qing court, there are no less than [-] pieces with the chrysanthemum as the theme of decoration, which can be called unique.

Among them, the twelve-color chrysanthemum petal plate carefully crafted by the Royal Kiln Factory in the 11th year of Yongzheng fully revealed Yinzhen's love for chrysanthemums.

Twelve even and smooth glaze colors show a fresh and refined artistic charm, and integrate the interest of literati into it, thus becoming a famous product of the world, unique in the past and the present.

Therefore, the value of a set of 3000 to [-] million is really not high.

If it is possible to buy the twelve-color Yongzheng chrysanthemum dish with 3000 million yuan, Chen Wenzhe will buy it without hesitation, but is it possible?

impossible!Up to now, there has never been a complete set of records handed down from Yongzheng's twelve-color chrysanthemum petal plate.

And not just twelve colors, but at least six other glaze colors are known.

Even so, no one has been able to collect all twelve colors of chrysanthemum discs.

Since the collection of authentic Yongzheng twelve-color chrysanthemum discs is not complete, Chen Wenzhe plans to make a set himself.

Looking at the porcelain made in front of me, the lemon yellow is clear and pleasant, the rouge water is delicate and charming, and the sweet white glaze is pure and sweet.

Finally, Chen Wenzhe's gaze fell on the white glazed porcelain plate.

It is such a simple piece of porcelain. If it is from the Yongzheng period or the Qianlong period, how much can it be sold for?

There are two chrysanthemum petal dishes out of the kiln, one imitates Yongzheng white glaze chrysanthemum petal dish and the other imitates Qianlong white glaze chrysanthemum petal dish.

Let’s not talk about Yongzheng’s porcelain. After all, the porcelain in the Qianlong period was even more flamboyant, so it looked even more dazzling.

Therefore, the white-glazed chrysanthemum petal plate in front of me, even though it is simply glazed with white glaze, looks absolutely extraordinary.

This Qianlong white-glazed chrysanthemum petal plate is covered with white glaze inside and outside. The glaze color is lustrous, pure and flawless, without any traces of years of carving.

In addition to the beautiful glaze color, this chrysanthemum petal dish also has an eye-catching feature, which is the six-character double-circle regular script inscription on the bottom of the dish.

Most of the Qianlong imperial kiln porcelains are inscribed in seal script, and inscribed in regular script are quite rare.

"How much is such a genuine product worth?"

Looking at the simple shape of the utensil, Zhang Gu also asked curiously.

"The real thing is 80 yuan!" Chen Wenzhe said after a little thought.

"80?" Zhang Gu felt a little surprised.

"Although this treasure belongs to Qianlong, it was fired within only two years of Qianlong's ascension to the throne. The standard is no different from that of Yongzheng. It stands to reason that it should be the same price as Yongzheng, and it has a rare inscription.

In fact, the price of this kind of Qianlong imperial style should be higher than that of Yongzheng, but in the series of chrysanthemum plates in the market, Yongzheng is still recognized, this is the brand!It's like Qianlong's carmine can be sold at a higher price. "

Although Yongzheng loved chrysanthemums only, while Qianlong preferred chrysanthemums, but judging from Qianlong’s white-glazed chrysanthemum petal dishes and lemon yellow-glazed chrysanthemum petal dishes, at least in the early Qianlong period, the difference in taste between the father and son was not that great.

It's just that Qianlong's aesthetics in the later period broke away from the category of high and cold, festive, lively and magnificent.

The two opposing aesthetic views in the history of Chinese aesthetics - "Hibiscus emerges from the water" and "Cross-coloured gold" are interpreted to the extreme by the father and son.

The emperor's personal aesthetics will run through the whole process of making official arts and crafts.

The chrysanthemum petal plate should belong to the essence of monochromatic glaze during the reign of Yongzheng and his sons.

Zhang Gu was silent for a while, then pointed to a blue-glazed chrysanthemum plate and asked again: "What about this one? How much would it cost if it was from Yongzheng?"

Chen Wenzhe's eyes left the clear white chrysanthemum plate, and he looked at the green-glazed chrysanthemum plate.

Previously, there was a transaction record of a Yongzheng powder celadon chrysanthemum disc, and Chen Wenzhe remembered that the transaction price was 161 million.

The transaction price of the Yongzheng white glaze chrysanthemum dish is 345 million, the Yongzheng purple gold glaze chrysanthemum dish is 460 million, the Yongzheng sprinkle blue glaze chrysanthemum dish is 345 million, and the Qianlong lemon yellow glaze chrysanthemum dish is 149.5 million.

It can be said that every time there is one more transaction, the closer the time is to now, the price of the chrysanthemum plate will hit a new high again!

Therefore, every time the chrysanthemum plate is auctioned, after the transaction is successful, it will cause an uproar in the porcelain collection circle.

Produced several high-quality goods one after another, which made Chen Wenzhe full of confidence.

It is easy to make a chrysanthemum plate again if you have prepared it.

Now there is a large row of chrysanthemum petal plate embryos next to them, and they have been dried for a day. After being glazed, they can be fired in a kiln after a little drying.

This time Chen Wenzhe prepared more glazes.

White glaze is the easiest, rouge red and rouge water are the most troublesome, yellow glaze and green glaze are common, black glaze needs to be studied, and sauce glaze also needs to be careful.

He knew the recipe for sauce glaze, that is, purple gold glaze, but he had never made it once.

After a little calculation, if you count the variants of the same color, this kind of monochrome glazed porcelain is really not limited to twelve colors.

Even adding six kinds of glaze colors is an understatement.

Since we want to do it, we must do it well and do it well.

Before doing it, you need to determine which ones are genuine and which ones are added gifts.

Looking at the exquisite pictures printed by Zhang Gu, Chen Wenzhe expressed his satisfaction.

Zhang Gu definitely put his heart into it, otherwise where could he find so many pictures of single-color glazed chrysanthemum discs?

Among them, the most eye-catching ones should be the glaze colors of black, white, green and yellow.

For hundreds of years after the birth of porcelain, there were only a few simple colors such as black, white, green, and yellow.

Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, the color has gradually increased, but it is still very limited.

Many glaze colors are difficult to fire and require high craftsmanship, so it is difficult to present them.

But this set of twelve-color chrysanthemum petal dishes only shows twelve kinds of glaze colors, and some of them are glaze colors that have never been seen before.

Even in today's superb porcelain-making technology, it is enough to make people admire.

When a layman sees these porcelains, the first impression is that besides being beautiful, they must be simple.

But as everyone in the know knows, pure monochrome glaze is very difficult to fire.

Using a single glaze color to decorate porcelain, also known as monochrome glaze, seems to be a simple way of presenting it, but it is to cover the chrysanthemum petal plate with one color, but the difficulty behind it is far beyond what people see.

High-temperature kiln changes, different glaze colors, and different firing processes.

When firing, it is also necessary to ensure that the glaze is uniform, because it is a single color, any local color differences will be exposed intuitively, and the uneven texture of the chrysanthemum disc adds to the difficulty of the process.

It can be said that Chen Wenzhe has admired the Yongzheng Twelve-Color Chrysanthemum Discs for a long time, but in his opinion, the cultural relics placed in the museum are after all high and far away from the lives of ordinary people.

Art comes from life, and it should also belong to life.

Now that he has the opportunity, he will naturally burn out the twelve-color chrysanthemum discs to reproduce the classics of Yongzheng, and let the precious collections come into life, no longer aloof.
