My system is not decent

During the Yongzheng period, whether it was porcelain vases, porcelain bowls, pots, bottles, cans, and even stationery, they were all beautiful, delicate and exquisite.

Most of these porcelains existed in ancient times, but the porcelains of the Yongzheng period are unique. The shapes of the vessels are often thin and light, and the whole is graceful, elegant, small and exquisite.

These porcelains have harmonious proportions and a soft appearance, which is called "curve beauty".

How beautiful is the appearance of Yongzheng porcelain?

Some people describe the shape of porcelain in the Yongzheng period like this, "If you add one point, you will be clumsy, and if you subtract one point, you will be ugly."

Moreover, the shape of porcelain in the Yongzheng period is usually full of regularity and rhythm, and has an aesthetic taste of geometry.

Therefore, the porcelain of the Yongzheng period, whether it is the shape or the glaze color, is the pinnacle of the past dynasties.

Of course, in addition to this, the decoration of Yongzheng porcelain is not simple.

The decoration of porcelain surfaces in the Yongzheng period was dominated by painting, combined with techniques such as engraving, printing, drawing, stacking and carving.

Affected by the "boneless painting method", the style of porcelain surface patterns at that time was clear and beautiful, full of charm.

Compared with the Kangxi period, the color setting is also more elegant and beautiful.

The outline of the brush is relatively delicate and detailed.

Even the figure's figure is drawn slightly thinner and slender.

Of course, many of the decorations in the Yongzheng period also followed the Kangxi period.

For example, dragon and phoenix patterns, bamboo and wood inscriptions, etc.

In terms of the theme selection of ornamentation, Yongzheng porcelain seems to be particularly fond of flowers.

There are really many varieties of flowers, including peony, peach blossom, crabapple, chrysanthemum, poppies, etc., all of which are in the painting.

At the same time, the decoration of plates and bowls, and the "dragon over the wall" pattern extending from the inside to the outside, also emerged during the Yongzheng period.

The poppies and ball patterns that emerged during the Kangxi period also reached their peak under Yongzheng.

It is said that Tang Ying, the pottery supervisor at that time, admired Xiang Yu very much, and admired the story of Xiang Yu and Yu Ji very much, so he preferred poppies.

Some writers once verified that poppies were planted everywhere in the Qing Dynasty on Zhushan Mountain where the Jingzhen Royal Kiln Factory is located.

Therefore, poppies are a very common pattern theme on porcelains from the Yongzheng period.

Of course, no matter what the pattern is, what really makes the Yongzheng period porcelain stand out among the many porcelains is the technique and skill of drawing the pattern.

The elegant and light patterns and colors, the patchwork composition of the porcelain surface, and the slender and soft brushstrokes all make Yongzheng porcelain the pinnacle of aesthetics among the court porcelain of the Qing Dynasty.

In fact, think about it, can it not be the peak?

The glaze color, vessel shape, and pattern are all at the peak. When these are combined together, they are still imperial articles produced by official kilns. It is no wonder that this kind of work is not at the peak.

Therefore, during the Yongzheng period, as one of the heydays of the Qing Dynasty, its porcelain production reached the highest level in history.

Porcelain of this period changed from the thick and simple style of the Kangxi period, and is famous for its beautiful shape and fine glaze.

The overall style of Yongzheng porcelain is light and handsome, elegant and exquisite, with unique ideas, soft and round lines, extremely fine carcass materials, thin walls and light body.

The small utensils have soft and subtle lines, light and handsome, practical and beautiful.

The large utensils are dignified and elegant, pay attention to line changes, simple and unsophisticated, with coordinated proportions, light and beautiful, regular but not heavy.

First of all, let’s talk about the glaze color. Emperor Yongzheng’s personality was rigorous and orderly, and he had a high aesthetic taste. Monochrome glaze was his favorite type of porcelain.

The single-color glazed porcelain in the Yongzheng period has more colors than the Kangxi period.

Not to mention the single-color glazed chrysanthemum petal dish, in addition to this set of fine single-color glazed porcelain, there are many other single-color glazed porcelains from the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.

Such as sacrificial blue-glazed jade pot spring vases, Jihong-glazed jade pot spring vases, and even yellow-glazed jade pot spring vases.

Palace porcelain has different functions, such as blue glaze, which is often used in sacrificial activities.

The yellow glazed porcelain is the real imperial daily porcelain.

Judging from the remaining porcelain, during the Yongzheng reign, the most common monochromatic glaze colors should be red glaze, yellow glaze and green glaze.

All kinds of glaze colors in the Yongzheng period were imitated by Chen Wenzhe when making the chrysanthemum plate.

So this time the production is relatively simple, as long as there is a suitable type of vessel, glaze it.

Chen Wenzhe has prepared all kinds of glaze colors from the Yongzheng period before, and it is good to use them directly now.

There are many classic glaze colors in the Yongzheng period, and as long as these glaze colors are prepared, it becomes easy to make multicolored and pastel colors.

The craftsmanship of colored porcelain in the Yongzheng period has been improved to a higher level, better than that of all dynasties.

There were many kinds of colored porcelain in the Yongzheng period, usually including traditional colored porcelain such as five colors, pastel colors and fighting colors.

In addition, there are more exquisite enamel colors.

The enamel color we see today was called "foreign color" at that time.

The enamel colors of the Yongzheng period were very famous, but not many of them survive today.

The enamel color of Yongzheng period is also significantly different from that of Kangxi period.

Especially in the production process, it is more refined.

During the Kangxi period, they were generally more regular pattern paintings with colored ground.

During the Yongzheng period, they were all paintings without color.

In particular, the painting style is emphasized, and there are more painting themes.

Such as flowers and birds, landscapes, pine, bamboo, plum, etc., the images expressed are extremely vivid.

Many collectors and connoisseurs in modern times admire Yongzheng fighting colors, and it is definitely not without reason.

For example, he is better than the fighting colors of the Kangxi period, and even improved compared to the fighting colors of the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty.

Compared with Ming Chenghua Doucai, Yongzheng Doucai has made progress in decoration layout, color matching and color filling technology.

Whether it is color or pattern, it is more delicate than before.

The porcelain of this period used thinner colors, and the tone was very soft and elegant.

On this basis, enamel color and gold color were introduced, forming a new craft of bucket color plus gold color, bucket color plus enamel color.

In addition to the original red, yellow, green, purple, and ochre, Doucai porcelain also adds a variety of colors such as pink, rouge, lotus root, rose, and lake green, making it more beautiful and delicate.

The Yongzheng bucket color with flower and bird figures as the decorative theme, the underglaze blue and white hook lines, and the glaze is filled with various colors, all of which are accurately filled without leaving the border.

And the pursuit of color changes, in a flower, filled with various colors such as purple, red, yellow, green and blue, and the production process is quite mature.

The price of such good enamel color and bucket color porcelain is naturally not cheap.

There are not many Yongzheng enamel and bucket color porcelains with a price of 8000 to [-] million, but they are not uncommon.

However, this level of porcelain is too troublesome to make. Besides, the enamel colors of the Qianlong period are even better than those of the Yongzheng period.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe imitated several more classic pieces of Yongzheng's enamel-colored porcelain.

For example, Yongzheng Doucai vase with cloud and dragon pattern, Yongzheng Doucai plus famille rose cloud and dragon pattern amphora, Yongzheng Doucai bowl with wrapped branches and flower pattern, etc. It is enough to make a few representative ones.

If he wants to imitate more, he wants to imitate Qianlong enamel.

After all, there are many high-quality porcelains in the Qing Dynasty, such as revolving vases. If you want to imitate all types of revolving vases, it will take too much effort.
