My system is not decent

These twelve-color chrysanthemum petal plates, in addition to the previously fired ones, also have the orthodox Yongzheng color numbers, which are caramel, indigo, shadow blue, Jiaohuang, iron embroidery, and sacrificial blue.

Among them, the more special one is the sauce color, that is, the purple gold glaze.

Sauce glaze, also known as "persimmon glaze, purple gold glaze", is a high-temperature colored glaze with iron as the coloring agent. The total amount of iron oxide and ferrous oxide in the glaze is relatively high, reaching more than 5%.

Sauce glaze appeared in the northern kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty, such as Ding kiln, Yaozhou kiln and other kilns, all of which were fired, and Ding kiln sauce glaze was the most famous.

In Ming Cao Zhao's "Ge Gu Yao Lun", it is stated that "there is purple and the color is purple, there is black and the color is as black as lacquer, and the soil is white, and its price is higher than that of white".

The so-called Ziding is not purple, and its glaze is brownish red, which is actually similar to today's sesame paste glaze, hence the name.

This is another metallic glaze that requires special care when firing, and there is another one, which is rust-colored.

The rust-colored chrysanthemum petal plate, due to the particularity of the traditional rust-colored glaze, rust-colored glaze relies on flow to develop color during firing.

Therefore, during the firing process, the phenomenon of hanging feet will be formed, making the edges of the bottom feet present a certain sense of randomness, which is natural and agile, and this is not a quality problem.

A complete set of imitation single-color glazed chrysanthemum discs naturally have uniform specifications.

First determine the color, and then unify the size, and all of these are actually standard.

The Yongzheng twelve-color chrysanthemum petal dish in the Qing Palace collection is the top grade among all glazed chrysanthemum petal dishes in Yongzheng.

A set of twelve pieces, with an open plate, an arc wall, and a ring foot.

The height of each chrysanthemum disc is 3.3 cm, the diameter of the chrysanthemum is 7.8 cm, and the foot diameter is 3 cm.

The whole body is in the petal shape of chrysanthemum, and there are twelve colors such as yellow, red, blue, green, purple, white, sauce, and lotus root.

Most of the white glazes with circle feet have blue and white double circle six-character regular script inscriptions "Yongzheng Year of the Qing Dynasty".

A few circles are covered with glaze, and there are double-circle six-character regular script inscriptions "Yongzheng Year of the Qing Dynasty" darkly engraved under the glaze.

These chrysanthemum petal plates are rich in color, glazed and moist, and the chrysanthemum petal ridges are tough and powerful.

And to imitate it in place, it must reflect the characteristics of the era of elegance, beauty, refinement and purity of Yongzheng official kiln color glazed porcelain.

After thinking about it, Chen Wenzhe started imitating from the simplest one.

Cook it first, then make the yellow glaze plate first, and among the Yongzheng chrysanthemum plate, there are four pieces belonging to the yellow glaze series.

They are yellow glaze chrysanthemum petal dish, bright yellow glaze chrysanthemum petal dish, turmeric glaze chrysanthemum petal dish, beige glaze chrysanthemum petal dish.

"Yellow" has the same pronunciation as "Huang", and it was the color of the supreme court in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Most of the dining utensils such as the roof of the palace, the emperor's dragon robe, and the plates, bowls, cups, and saucers used by the emperor and empress for daily meals are yellow.

Chen Wenzhe did not let go of the yellow glaze of the Qing Dynasty before, but he did the yellow glaze of the Ming Dynasty.

To be honest, the real high-temperature yellow on porcelain appeared in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty.

Since then, yellow-glazed porcelain has become the largest product among Jingzhen single-color glazes during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The main coloring agent of yellow glaze is antimony oxide. During the Yongzheng period, different amounts of iron were added to antimony oxide to make rich changes in color tone.

In addition to yellow glaze, there are several colors such as jiaohuang (pouring yellow), bright yellow, turmeric, light yellow, beige, beeswax yellow and eel yellow.

The bright yellow glaze in this group of twelve-color chrysanthemum petal plates is greenish in yellow, bright and dazzling;

Turmeric glaze, deep in color, solid and steady;

The beige glaze is yellow and pink, and the color is soft.

From so many yellow glazes, it is not easy to prepare several suitable characteristic yellow glazes, let alone make these characteristic yellow glazes more obvious.

Think about it, it is just a kind of bright yellow glaze with greenish yellow, so it is not easy to fire.

Fortunately, he tried burning it before, which made Chen Wenzhe understand that the inheritance experience he had learned through Suihou's Pearl was very useful and correct.

Therefore, I don’t worry too much about preparing the glaze now. As long as it is the porcelain he fired, it will not be too bad. If it doesn’t work, the desired effect cannot be achieved. A few times, now that he has time anyway.

So to be on the safe side, he still needs to make a few more.

This time, he prepared all the yellow glazes he could think of, and after they were all fired successfully, he chose the most beautiful ones to form a set.

After finishing the yellow-glazed chrysanthemum plate, I am making white glaze.

Among the Yongzheng chrysanthemum-petal dishes, there is a white-glazed chrysanthemum-petal dish, which is fine, white and clean, as white as cream.

White glaze is the natural glaze of porcelain, which is generally considered to be the easiest to control, but it is not.

Because all china clays and glazes contain more or less iron oxide.

After firing, it will show a dark or light blue tone.

It is necessary to reduce the iron element in the tire glaze to less than 0.75%o in order to produce pure white color.

The white glaze in the Yongzheng period did not add any coloring agent, but only reduced the iron in the body and glaze to the lowest limit, and then applied a layer of high-quality transparent glaze, completely relying on the whiteness of the body soil itself to appear white.

The purity of the white-glazed porcelain body soil is very high, and a little impurity will affect the purity of the glaze.

The process that Chen Wenzhe is least worried about and the most worry-free is the fetal soil, because many modern mud factories can prepare perfect fetal soil according to his needs.

Therefore, as long as the color is well grasped, it is not difficult to make white porcelain.

"It needs to change a little bit, and be careful."

After finishing the white porcelain, Chen Wenzhe felt that something more difficult was needed, so this time he chose to mix the rouge purple glaze.

Among the Yongzheng chrysanthemum petal dishes, there is a rouge purple glaze dish, which is as bright as rouge.

And this carmine purple glaze is a kind of red powder low-temperature glaze with gold as the coloring agent introduced from the West during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.

During the Yongzheng period, it developed to the extreme. There are two kinds of deep and shallow. The shallower is almost pink, commonly known as rouge water.

The darker one is close to rose red, commonly known as carmine purple.

The glaze juice of this plate is deep and delicate, smooth and even, and it is deeper and more purple than the rouge water glaze.

The rouge water or rouge purple glaze in the Qing Dynasty are all official kiln porcelains, and are extremely rare because of their scarcity.

This Chen Wenzhe has done a lot, and it is not difficult to do it. Even Chen Wenzhe is not worried about making mistakes when he is fired in the kiln, so he didn't do too much.

Next is the green-glazed dish. Among the chrysanthemum-petal dishes, there are three pieces belonging to the green-glazed series, green-glazed chrysanthemum-petal dish, scallion-green glazed chrysanthemum-petal dish, and lake-green glazed chrysanthemum-petal dish.

Copper metal will show a green tint in an oxidizing atmosphere, and Jingzhen fired a bright low-temperature green glaze in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.

However, because the glaze is directly applied to the unglazed biscuit, the cleanliness of the glaze is poor, and the fine foreign particles in the tire are clearly visible.

During the Yongzheng period, on the basis of inheriting the verdigris glaze of the previous generation, various green-glazed porcelains mixed with other metal coloring agents were developed.

Therefore, in that period, there were not only ordinary green glazes, but also new glaze colors such as roe green, turquoise green, melon skin green, lake green, green onion green, and turtle skirt green.

The purity of the green glaze is also greatly improved, the color is bright, emerald, clean and transparent.

The green glaze dish in the chrysanthemum petal dish has a dark green and bluish glaze color, without streaks;

The green onion glaze plate is glazed green and yellowish, close to grass green, like a green onion in the first bud, bright and delicate:

The color of the lake green glaze dish is light and elegant, like sky blue, soft as silk, moist and bright.

Chen Wenzhe has tried burning these before, and it is not difficult.
