Chen Wenzhe flipped through some antique porcelain sent by Li Jinli recently, including monochromatic glazed porcelain, porcelain imitating Ge kiln, and porcelain imitating Longquan kiln.

It's a pity that the technology of these imitations is too inferior, and Chen Wenzhe doesn't like it.

However, Li Jinli probably didn't spend less money this time, because there are a lot of these things here, and they don't look fake at first glance.

The price of imitation products of this quality should not be low in the market.

For example, the splicing of the bottom pieces of porcelain is perfect, but in Chen Wenzhe's eyes, they are still full of loopholes.

However, among these counterfeit porcelains, he actually saw a piece of Hongxian porcelain made by Ju Rentang, which is quite interesting.

If there were official kilns in the period of the Republic of China, then there were only "Hongxian" porcelain and "Zhai" porcelain.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, after entering the Republic of China, amidst the sound of Yuan’s restoration of the imperial system, Guo Shiwu wanted to imitate the practice of the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and burn precious porcelain in Jingzhen for court furnishings.

Guo Shiwu reported this idea to Yuan, and Yuan Dawei praised him. He immediately appointed Guo Shiwu as the supervisor of the Ceramics Department, and went to Jingzhen to burn the imperial porcelain of the "Hongxian" emperor.

For this reason, Guo Shiwu became the last pottery supervisor in the history of Jingzhen Royal Kiln Factory.

In a very short period of time, the Royal Kiln Factory fired a very small batch of "Hongxian" porcelain.

It mostly takes the prosperous and auspicious Yong and Qiansheng porcelains as specimens, and imitates them meticulously.

This batch of porcelain is excellent in texture, exquisite in color materials, and beautiful in shape. It is a batch of extremely special products.

In fact, "Hongxian" porcelain is just a general term, and the high-grade and precious porcelain fired by Guo Shiwu is not identified with "Hongxian".

When Li Jingzhen, the fifth governor of Guo Shi, started to burn the "Jurentang system" porcelain first, Yuan, who had been emperor for 83 days, fell before the "Hongxian year system" imperial porcelain was fired.

"Jurentang" was Yuan's residence in China Sea at that time, and the authentic "Hongxian" porcelain was the world-famous "Jurentang System" porcelain.

Therefore, most of the "Hongxian Nianzhi" or "Hongxian Yuzhi" utensils seen today were fired in folk kilns in the 30s and [-]s. Although they are finely made, they are indeed fakes.

Guo Shiwu also used his alias "Chu Zhai" as an inscription to burn some porcelain, which are both rare and precious with the "Jurentang Zhi" porcelain.

There are very few precious porcelains inscribed in "Jurenzhang" and "Zhaizhai". Some people don't know the goods, don't pay attention to them, and even sell them easily.

This is also a no-brainer, because this kind of porcelain from the Republic of China period is really rare.

Therefore, it is more difficult to identify.

When encountering this kind of porcelain, when identifying genuine and counterfeit products, special attention should be paid to not the "Ju Ren Tang system" but other details.

This kind of utensil has the characteristics of fine workmanship in its glaze, shape and painting.

And there are more small utensils than large ones, and the imitations are often very similar in style, and the rest are very rough.

The blue-and-white porcelain of this period had thicker fetuses and more products from folk kilns.

Compared with the porcelain of the past dynasties, there is a big gap.

The combination of enamel and fetal bone is not tight enough, and bubbles and deglazing appear on the glaze.

Generally speaking, if the blue pattern surface is found, there are spots of bursting glaze, and the traces of the glaze color blasting outward, the production date is within nearly a hundred years.

The color of blue and white porcelain is dark and bluish, commonly known as ocean blue.

Ocean blue appeared in my country at the end of Guangxu period, when most of the blue and white porcelain in folk kilns were made of ocean blue.

The porcelain paintings of this period were less refined and more sloppy, and a large number of blue and white porcelain imitations appeared dull.

Although some are verdant, gorgeous and finely painted, they have a strong sense of floating.

Watercolor is a kind of porcelain color that appeared in the late Guangxu period. This color does not contain powder, and has the characteristics of thin color material and glassy glaze.



Due to the fine selection of materials, the fetal bones of porcelain are very thin.

At that time, watercolor and soft-color porcelain were fired.

Some fall into the "Hongxian Nianzhi" or "Hongxian Yuzhi" blue or red materials.

The multicolored porcelain in the Republic of China was colorful.

There are many varieties with bright red and green colors, which are easy to distinguish from the previous varieties.

The more famous ones are imitation enamel and pastel utensils.

According to literature records, in 1916, Guo Baochang supervised pottery in Xijiang, and once fired about a hundred pieces of antique enamel colored porcelain, inscribed with the three characters "Jurentang".

No matter which one, Hong Xian porcelain is rare anyway, so it is obvious that the one in Chen Wenzhe's hands cannot be real.

The batch of porcelain collected by Li Jinli is also considered with care.

However, almost all of them are imitations, and the best ones are just high imitations from the period of the Republic of China.

Of course, there are also some very interesting porcelains in it, such as the monochrome glazed porcelain imitated in the Republic of China, and the porcelain that seems to belong to the company and so on.

From the end of Guangxu to the period of Xuantong, Jingzhen established a ceramic company and set up a branch factory according to the Western system.

Therefore, only company-style porcelain appeared during the Republic of China.

However, the quality of such porcelain is not very good.

Perhaps it was because of the poor quality that no one imitated them, which allowed Li Jinli to buy a few authentic ones.

There was no way around that. At that time, the factory was researching new methods, which improved its technology and improved its quality and style.

But in the end, due to the chaotic situation and insufficient funds, it failed to support it.

From a technical point of view, Xuantong porcelain has a high level of craftsmanship and has the characteristics of modern ceramic craftsmanship.

In the second year of Xuantong, Xijiang Porcelain Company raised funds to establish China Ceramics School.

The school has a second class for undergraduates and apprentices, aiming to cultivate professional ceramic talents in a planned way.

However, there are not many products left from this period, and they are still rare today.

Li Jinli was lucky to buy one.

Of course, there were good things about this period too.

The period of the Republic of China was very special, perhaps because the official kilns were disbanded, and without the emperor, the imperial kiln factory naturally disappeared.

Therefore, some porcelain craftsmen scattered into the tasting all have high cultural accomplishment.

Coupled with the fact that some cultural people joined the porcelain industry, most of the porcelain craftsmen were able to handle landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, insects and fish, and there were absolutely no specialists.

They are often completed by one person from draft design, sketching to rendering, freely expressing the artist's personality.

Therefore, light crimson porcelain paintings appear "live" and more "released".

Poetry, calligraphy and painting are often coordinated and unified, signed and signed, and the model is novel.

The most famous ones in this period are the eight friends of Zhushan. They are the most famous for their porcelain plate paintings. Chen Wenzhe had collected some of them before.

At that time, the custom of signing the name of the craftsman and writing the date of production gradually emerged on the porcelain plate.

What needs special attention is that during the same period, a group of famous painters specializing in light crimson paintings emerged.

After the 20s, famille rose gradually replaced light crimson color as the mainstream of porcelain plate painting.

At this time, the "Eight Friends of Zhushan" headed by Wang Qi appeared, and they drew a batch of exquisite paintings on porcelain panels that were loved by people from all walks of life.

In addition to "Eight Friends", the works of Li Mingliang, Fang Yunfeng, Deng Bishan, Wang Bu and other famous artists were also famous for a while.
