Chapter 443 One-time draining (1 monthly ticket plus update, ask for monthly ticket subscription)

Maybe it's because the jade pot spring vase was used as a mold. Anyway, this piece of porcelain has witnessed countless times the process of kiln firing by Jingzhen craftsmen in the Yuan Dynasty.

Through it, Chen Wenzhe saw many technologies of the Yuan Dynasty, and let him know that in the Yuan Dynasty, porcelain kilns were also becoming more and more advanced.

It also allowed him to really see how the ancient porcelain kilns were built.

How would Chen Wenzhe know what a gourd kiln looks like without the jade pot and spring vase in his hand?

How does he know, how is this kind of kiln used?

If he came from a Jingzhen porcelain making family, maybe he could learn some of this ancient kiln firing technique, but without the foundation, he can only rely on himself.

Through the jade pot spring bottle, Chen Wenzhe saw the entire construction process of the gourd kiln, as well as the utilization process.

This let him know that the gourd kiln is actually a half-down-flame kiln with obvious advantages.

Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. This kind of kiln body is small, the kiln length is generally only 8-10 meters, the volume is not large, and the temperature difference between front and back is large.

However, such a small kiln mouth is very suitable for reproduction.

He can even make it smaller, because Chen Wenzhe must only fire high-quality porcelain, rather than firing ordinary daily-use porcelain on a large scale.

He has long wanted to replicate an ancient kiln mouth, truly imitate the ancient firing environment, and thus produce a batch of real antique porcelain.

This time through Yuhu Chunping, he got a chance, and let his kiln firing technology start to grow again.

It can be said that Chen Wenzhe's current kiln firing technology has begun to grow rapidly with the development of kiln firing technology in the Yuan Dynasty.

In the Yuan Dynasty, a series of technological advances directly allowed the craftsmen of the Yuan Dynasty to successfully burn blue and white porcelain, opening up a new era of transition from plain porcelain to colored porcelain.

Next, Chen Wenzhe witnessed the creation, progress, and prosperity of blue and white flowers.

After Ming and Qing dynasties and continuous improvement, blue and white porcelain has become the most influential peerless porcelain with Chinese national style and the most influence in the world.

From the Yuan Dynasty to the present, it has been dominant for 600 years. This is blue and white porcelain!

It was during this period that the craftsmen of the Yuan Dynasty not only invented the red glaze, but also created the red decoration in the glaze and the red decoration in the blue and white glaze.

The so-called in-glaze red decoration refers to painting various patterns on utensils with in-glaze red glaze;

The so-called blue and white underglaze red decoration is to decorate the same utensil with blue and white and underglaze red, so that the decoration is blue with red, which complements each other.

Seeing this, Chen Wenzhe finally saw blue and white, underglaze red, and blue and white underglaze red.

During this process, he saw how those craftsmen fired red and purple glazes.

These two glaze colors have improved compared with the Song Dynasty, especially the purple glaze is better fired.

During the Yuan Dynasty, high-temperature blue glaze was also fired.

These are fairly common, and the most important thing is that they have been fired into copper red glaze.

However, because the firing temperature was not fully grasped at that time, the red color of the fired copper red glaze product was not pure enough.

It's just that they can't fully control the temperature, but Chen Wenzhe can.

He only needs to understand the firing technique of copper red glaze. Controlling the temperature is his strong point.

Finally got the complete copper red glaze formula, which allowed Chen Wenzhe to burn blue and white underglaze red without any obstacles!

The copper-red glaze is well controlled, so he is not afraid to burn the copper-red glaze when firing blue and white.

In this way, the copper red glaze and blue and white can be perfectly combined, and the blue and white underglaze red porcelain can be fired smoothly!

Of course, there are still some details that need to be carefully controlled. After all, in the Yuan Dynasty, the firing of blue and white underglaze red was also a matter of luck.

Although he really wanted to end the backtracking now, go to the underground studio to burn a batch of blue and white underglaze red, and try to see if it can be successful, but Chen Wenzhe endured it.

Finally, he got a treasure with a long history, and he wanted to drain the knowledge contained in it all at once.

Therefore, next he saw the more exquisite sculpture craftsmanship of the Yuan Dynasty.

For example, the shadow-celadon Guanyin produced at that time not only has a dignified body and a plump appearance, but also has exquisite and thin garment edges.

Chen Wenzhe really didn't expect that he could learn sculpture and engraving techniques through a red jade pot and spring vase in blue and white glaze.

If he added his phantom carving technique, what kind of effect would the shadow-celadon Avalokitesvara be produced?

At this time, Chen Wenzhe knew that he had gained a lot this time.

And then, it was confirmed.

Because he gained even more later, it was also in the Yuan Dynasty, when craftsmen created decorations such as gold color, three-color glaze, silver-red glaze, trade blue glaze, and blue-and-white glaze patterns.

This changed the situation of ceramic decoration, which has always been dominated by a single glaze.

At this time, Chen Wenzhe saw too much firing of porcelain.

In that era, craftsmen in the Yuan Dynasty created many new types of utensils while inheriting various types of tableware, tea sets, wine sets, vases, stoves, boxes, and offering utensils.

Such as folding waist bowls, vases with seats, S-eared vases, octagonal plum vases, jade pot spring vases, large plates with folded edge flower mouths, high-legged bowls, large pots with lotus leaf lids, small carambola-shaped pots, Fengshou flat pots, and phoenix-shaped pots. There are a large number of new utensils with characteristics of the times, such as vases with skull caps and flat and round holding pots.

Among them is the later classic type - Yuhu spring bottle.

At this time, Chen Wenzhe knew that the jade pot spring vase in his hand might be the ancestor of all the jade pot spring vases in later generations.

Because of the era when it appeared, Yuhu Chunping was not considered a new type of utensil, and it was officially created and fired!

It has to be said that the Yuan Dynasty, a period of dark history that we have always considered, also invented many technologies.

Chen Wenzhe is willing to learn if he has technology.

Continue to look down, but unfortunately, there is nothing to gain next, because the jade pot spring bottle has walked out of the kiln.

Seeing this, the backtracking this time should be coming to an end.

This made Chen Wenzhe a little emotional, but soon he was attracted by some pictures.

Unexpectedly, at the end, he could get a taste of the ancient Silk Road.

He followed the jade pot and spring vase, walked out of the kiln and headed west.

The Yuan Dynasty paid special attention to foreign trade. With the increasing development of overseas trade, the export of Jingci porcelain also expanded.

At that time, the inland traffic was mainly to transport porcelain along the "Silk Road".

Porcelain, heavy and fragile like treasures, was transported from the inland to the border, and entered the deserts and grasslands of Central Asia through the borders, and then crossed the mountains to Persia and then to the Mediterranean.

According to legend, the ancients had a magical method for packaging and transporting porcelain, and this time, Chen Wenzhe saw it with his own eyes.

After people bought porcelain at that time, they put each utensil into sand and a little soybean wheat.

Overlap dozens of them, tie them into one body, and place them in wetlands.

Then sprinkle water on it to germinate the bean and wheat, wrap it around the glue and solidify it, and then throw it on the ground. Only those that are not damaged are qualified.

They were thrown from the car several times, only those who were as tough as before were carried.

Therefore, although the land travels thousands of miles, it is safe and sound, but its selling price is more than ten times more expensive than usual.
