Can green glazed porcelain be used as sacrificial vessel?This is really hard to say in ancient times.

After all, the color of green glaze is not a positive color, and when people looked at things at that time, they also judged things according to their high or low.

Especially in the Tang Dynasty, although officials all wore official uniforms, the official's rank could also be seen through the color of the official uniforms.

Just like the official's position is relatively low, the robe he wears is the green court dress.

There are corresponding regulations on color in the "Yuan Decrees".

The general meaning is that people in the Yuan Dynasty did not have a particularly clear distinction between the rules for the correct color and the salty color.

But from the bottom of their hearts, they all reject a color system, that is, cyan, which had an embarrassing name at the time, called "green turban".

In fact, it’s not just our people who put on colored glasses when looking at green in the feudal period. Similarly, in the West, green does not symbolize things with positive energy, such as poison or the devil.

And this change of concept, until the appearance of Napoleon, set off a wave of people changing their views on green.

The masterpiece "Night Cafe" was created by Van Gogh. The main colors in this painting are red, yellow and green.

Many people couldn't understand it at the time, but what Van Gogh wanted to express was to use green to render the evil of human nature.

So people in the world don't like green, so why is green glazed porcelain still developed?

It is because the green-glazed porcelain is the main force among the burial vessels. During the development of the green-glazed porcelain, a spring breeze of development was ushered in during the Han Dynasty.

In fact, the proportion of porcelain in the Han Dynasty was not particularly large. The most popular ones were those metal products that looked particularly gorgeous with lacquer.

Objects like this are loved by people in the upper class.

It was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty that porcelain began to gradually become porcelain.

It's just that in the firing process, the technology is not particularly advanced, the techniques are not very skilled, and the selling price is relatively low.

Although the development is not particularly clear, the pottery of this period has also occupied a place.

Just like the tile at that time, many people were obsessed with it.

The green glaze represents the funerary objects.

The gap between the two is still relatively large, but so far the green glaze has stepped onto the stage.

The green glaze of the Han Dynasty was based on lead when it was made.

In the process of making, what copper shows is the coloring agent.

The purpose of using these two raw materials is to increase the refractive index in a high-temperature environment, so that after the porcelain is made, it looks smoother and flatter.

Because the texture of the glaze is fuller, and it gives people the feeling that it has the texture of glass, and then it matches with the green color, which makes people's eyes shine.

It seems that in the pottery, the beauty exuded by the pure color can also be seen.

As for the appearance of lead glaze in this period, up to now, we modern people still haven't solved the final mystery.

However, some people think that the reason why this spring breeze was able to usher in was because at that time, in the process of territorial development, it had already reached the Western Regions.

This allowed this technology to gradually spread from Egypt to China.

However, some scholars believe that in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, people had already mastered the smelting of lead elements.

By the time of the Western Han Dynasty, people had become very proficient in mastering this technology, and they could naturally apply it.

Even though there are different opinions, there is one thing that is understandable, that is, the style of thick burials that arose in the Han Dynasty.

People at that time believed that they might have suffered a lot while they were alive, and if their family members could bury them generously after death, they would usher in prosperity in another world.

It was under the impetus of these factors that green glaze gradually became the first-class utensil of ceramics in the Han Dynasty.

At this period, another historical watershed has arrived, that is, the choice between pottery and porcelain.

With the passage of time, especially at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Yue Kiln welcomed many craftsmen in the process of development.

These craftsmen are all from the far north, and gradually set off a wave of prosperity.

And at this time, the craftsmanship of manufacturing has also greatly advanced, and the manufacturing of the transitional period has been completed.

On the other hand, in the Han green glaze, it gradually became dull again.

The spring breeze that ushered in inadvertently withdrew from the stage.

Compared with porcelain and pottery, it has a particularly big advantage.

Especially in the era of war and chaos, the trend of post-burial can no longer be picked up.

It is precisely because of this that after the trend of thick burials disappeared, the existence value of green glaze was instantly compressed.

According to the general Fan Cui, the archaeologist who detected the mark of the Northern Qi Dynasty, after his tomb was excavated, green glaze was found.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing to reappear after a lapse of 300 years.

And when the craftsmen were making it, they just brushed a little bit of green lightly, and did not show all the green at all.

Although this method seems to be perfunctory, it actually indicates that green will still enter the public's field of vision in the near future.

Therefore, when it came to the Tang Dynasty, green-glazed porcelain began to develop rapidly in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty ushered in, and the development of ceramics also accelerated rapidly.

Blue, yellow, red and black, these colors shine in various places in the folk in an instant.

Apart from this, the green light cannot be concealed.

Because people's lives in the Tang Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment, just like the style of thick burials that arose in the Han Dynasty, it also flourished again.

This also means that the Han green glaze in the funerary objects can set off a wave of prosperity.

However, the facts did not develop as we imagined. Instead of Han green glaze, it was Tang Sancai.

Although there is more than one glaze color in Tang Sancai, green is still a relatively main color in the production process of Tang Sancai.

It is very likely that the great integration of culture and economy during this period made Tang people gradually let go of their prejudice against green.

Just like before the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, many territories in the north of the Tang Dynasty were not only the political center, but also the economic center, and it was precisely because of this that cultures collided in this place.

People living in the upper class of society, their aesthetics are constantly changing, for example, the blue tea utensils are very popular among them.

It can also be seen from this that people at that time had abandoned many prejudices when looking at green, and began to look at it with a new perspective.
