My system is not decent

The yellow color composition in the broken fragments found in the Forbidden City is very close to the yellow color composition in the Kangxi yellow earth enamel.

Such a thing must be the rare Yongzheng black ground enamel colored porcelain.

Needless to say, the small plate that Chen Wenzhe saw, or simply a small plate, must be of the same type as the scrap found in the Forbidden City.

Even imperial enamelware produced in the same batch at the same kiln mouth in the same period.

Enamel porcelain like this was rarely seen before, and at most it used a part of black enamel porcelain.

Elegant black ground enamel colors are rare, and some black ground enamel colored glazes are like a black ground enamel peony pattern covered bowl with flowers blooming and rich.

Among those bright flowers, peonies are unique.

Thinking back to the sung in the streets and alleys of Chang'an, "National beauty in the morning, wine in the morning, heavenly fragrance in the evening dyeing clothes", even Tang Wenzong, who was in the palace, couldn't help boasting, which is called "National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance".

The unique charm of peony and the demeanor of the king attract skillful craftsmen from all dynasties to paint it.

Since the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, peony patterns have been flourishing for a long time. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the peony patterns on Jingzhen kiln porcelain were even more colorful.

The combination of porcelain and peony is a match made in heaven.

This is a yellow-bottomed peony covered bowl full of luxury, and the utensil reveals the atmosphere of the court.

After playing with it carefully, I discovered the mystery of this thing.

The pastel rolling path is matched with the picture of rich and noble flowers. The workmanship is complicated and cumbersome, and the yin and yang of the picture are prominent.

Under careful scrutiny, the difficulty of the craftsmanship and the ingenuity of the craftsmanship are suddenly admirable.

Combining famille rose technique with enamel color, heavy industry draws peony patterns on the yellow background.

The brushwork is re-rendered, and the flat painting is delicate.

The proportion of one flower and one leaf, and the strength of one piece and one relaxation, are in harmony with the utensils.

Obviously, this tureen is also a rare black ground enamel colored vessel.

Similar to this piece, there are also some enamel colors of the same type, such as the enamel color of Baoyun Pavilion, which is washed with black ground and thousands of flowers.

Wanhua, one of the classic decorations on porcelain, was first created in the Yongzheng Dynasty.

It reached its peak during the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods, and it was also called "Wanhua Brocade", "Wanhuadui", "Hundred Flowers Picture" and so on.

It means that thousands of flowers present auspiciousness and a prosperous life.

Its complicated process, rich colors and colorful paintings are the most popular colored porcelains, showing the incomparable magnificence and dignity of the prosperous empire.

There are two types of Wanhua porcelain, black ground and white ground. Due to the laborious production and huge cost, the finished products are rare. The white ground is rare, and the black ground is even more rare.

The Black Land Wanhua series is the top rare category of Baoyun Pavilion. On the one hand, the scarcity is due to the extremely difficult firing of the Black Land.

During the firing process, it is very easy to have bulges, bubble eyes, etc.;

On the other hand, due to the complicated decoration, if there is a mistake, the whole area will change, so the yield is very low.

On one utensil, there are no less than thirty kinds of colors.

Before painting, all the pigments must be prepared. Hundreds of color materials need to be adjusted in the early stage, and the final painting and dyeing must go through the hands of several people and enter the kiln several times.

It often takes several months to complete a project.

The overall design of Wanhua decoration is ingenious. Although the picture is dense but not chaotic, the distribution of flowers and leaves has its own priority, and the interspersed is reasonable.

Its brushwork is exquisite, tactful and stretched, showing a soft and beautiful posture;

The enamel color material is bright and magnificent, and it reveals a unique and rich sense of oil in the glass texture.

Every flower on the utensil needs to be rendered and colored in layers after the outline is outlined.

Afterwards, details such as pistils and veins of flowers and leaves are carefully drawn, and the layers of enamel color materials are full of three-dimensionality.

Such enamel colored ware is obviously more difficult to fire than other enamel colored ware, and it is obviously more precious.

Also, Baoyun Pavilion is no ordinary place.

Up to now, in 2017, Baoyun Pavilion was rated as an intangible cultural inheritance base by the Jingzhen Municipal Government, and has become the leading brand of Jingzhen enamel color.

They specialize in the techniques of enamel and colored porcelain of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty.

Their works are exquisite in shape, exquisite in workmanship, elegant and luxurious in quality, which is the transformation and inheritance of the tradition and innovation of ceramic culture.

The shape of the vessel is changed from the conventional, the proportion of the shape is soft and full, showing the beauty of femininity and elegant aesthetic taste, showing exquisiteness everywhere.

Works belonging to Baoyun Pavilion, the enamel color is dignified and atmospheric, three-dimensional and vivid, and the side and foot decorations against it are also exquisite and extraordinary, implying that a hundred flowers will be auspicious, and the prosperity will be peaceful.

The design is unique, the flower patterns are cumbersome, the petals are colorful, the whole picture is orderly, the distribution of flowers and leaves has its own priority, tactfully stretched, presenting a gorgeous and noble temperament.

Baoyun Pavilion adheres to the concept of small but exquisite, just like the building office of the Yuanmingyuan in the Qing Dynasty, striving for excellence in the output of art.

Every piece of work they make puts a lot of effort into it as if it were a work of art.

From design, composition, color matching, drawing, firing, almost all processes are supervised by professional masters.

And all this stems from the love of enamel, the mission of enamel inheritance.

The works of Baoyun Pavilion are worth a word.

Of course, expensive is because of scarcity.

The products produced by Baoyun Pavilion belong to the top-level scarce category and are extremely difficult to produce.

During the firing process, bulges and bubbles are very easy to appear; in addition, due to the complicated decoration, if there is a mistake, the whole area will change, and the yield is very low.

Therefore, the quantity is scarce, which leads to the phenomenon that Baoyun Pavilion is expensive.

Then there is the Wanhua craft, even if this craft is not used on enamel, it is also the top craft.

In 2017, CCTV Variety Channel launched a cultural exploration program - "National Treasure".

The first episode of the program showed the world the unique "delicate and charming" aesthetics of Emperor Qianlong.

Different from the "fairy aesthetics" of his father and grandfather, Qianlong's slightly deviated aesthetics have always been known for their complexity, capriciousness, and beauty.

It was even dubbed "the flower of wealth in the world" by netizens because of the many elements and too strong colors.

The unique style always allows us to easily distinguish which one was made in the Qianlong period from a pile of porcelain.

People in the world only know that he flaunts his skills, but they don't know that what he flaunts is actually the inclusive mind that should be in a peaceful and prosperous age.

Of course, it is also the demeanor and mentality that a great country should have, and it is the culmination of thousands of years of Jingzhen craftsmen.

Just as "Tao Ya" said: "When it came to Qianlong, it was extremely beautiful, and it was so exquisite that it was almost magical."

Although it is not as bright and majestic as the blue and white of the Yuan Dynasty, it is not as bright and dignified as the Ming Doucai.

In 2015, at the Autumn Auction of China Guardian Xiangjiang, a "Three-legged Stove with Crown Ears without Showing All Flowers" was sold for a high price of 223 million RMB.

There are quite a few such high-quality Wanhua series porcelains in China.

Among them, the classic is the gourd bottle with thousands of flowers hidden, which is also collected by major museums in my country.

For example, the National Museum has collected one, the "Gourd Vase with Ten Thousand Flowers Uncovered" in the year of Qianlong.
