My system is not decent

Using the craftsmanship of secret color porcelain, it is impossible to apply thick glaze on this thin bowl.

Because secret color porcelain is different from ordinary celadon, not only represents the highest level of craftsmanship in celadon production, but also has a different glaze.

Abnormal clarity is the effect, and this effect must be achieved because the glaze layer is as thin as a cicada's wing, and the fetal quality is fine, clean and dense.

Therefore, the craftsmanship of making secret color porcelain is very particular.

Because the tire is thin and the glaze cannot be thickened, the moisture in it must be handled carelessly.

If it is not handled well, just the bubbles in the firing process will completely destroy the beauty of the porcelain.

Therefore, the success of secret color porcelain firing depends on the porcelain clay, glaze color and temperature.

In the secret color enamel, a considerable part of the iron oxide is reduced, and the glaze color appears as a relatively pure blue color;

On the contrary, when the reducing atmosphere is weak, a considerable part of the iron in the glaze remains oxidized, and the glaze color shows a greenish-yellow tone.

Secret color porcelain is the highest quality porcelain in Yue kiln, and its firing process mainly has three steps.

First of all, it must be the selection and processing of porcelain clay. Having seen the production process of ancient kiln workers, Chen Wenzhe summed it up. The main process is to use special crushing, washing, corruption, and kneading processes to achieve a high degree of "vitrification." .

This belongs to the level of mud training. As for the previous crushing and washing, with the help of modern tools, it is much more convenient and better than ancient times.

The subsequent corruption and kneading, one involves the secret recipe, and the other depends on the craftsmanship.

The secret recipe is easy to understand, but it takes time to complete.

In fact, for modern people, this has already been studied very clearly.

After all, there is a professional tire mud factory, and they can prepare whatever kind of mud you want.

For example, to clean the bottom trough for the production of purple clay teapots, it needs to be aged as much as possible.

Therefore, as long as you have money, you can easily buy some qualified mud.

As for the craftsmanship of refining mud, Chen Wenzhe is not worried.

As long as he has seen the techniques of ancient kiln workers, he can learn it, and he can do it better.

After the tire is completed, it is waiting to be glazed.

Glaze color is also the key. Glaze purification is to remove impurities in the glaze and improve the glaze application method.

The whole body is glazed, and the method of supporting nails is adopted after glazing;

Here, Chen Wenzhe can also use the skill of sesame nails, which is the benefit of versatility.

After the glaze is applied, it is put into the sagger.

The firing of secret-color porcelain does not allow the porcelain to come into contact with the fire. Instead, the secret-color porcelain body is put into a porcelain sagger for firing, one vessel for one box, and the gap between the box and the cover is sealed with glaze water.

The last is temperature control. Through the control of the furnace temperature, a different kind of high-temperature airtight environment can be achieved in the sagger, so that the secret-colored porcelain that won the emerald color of Qianfeng will appear.

After smoothing out the craftsmanship, coupled with many more sophisticated techniques, the porcelain produced at this time should be able to reach the level of the legendary firewood kiln, right?

Regardless of whether the legend is true or not, Chen Wenzhe regards it as true.

It is said that the porcelain produced by Chai Kiln is "green as the sky, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, sound like a chime, moist and fine with fine lines."

Exquisitely crafted and of unrivaled brilliance, it was the best porcelain in many kilns at that time.

This is Chen Wenzhe's goal. What he can achieve now is as thin as paper.

The next step is to look at the firing effect of the glaze. If it is possible, it will definitely be as bright as a mirror.

As for Qing Rutian, I'm afraid it's not enough.

This blue, if it is sky blue, it would be too difficult to fire.

Not everyone can fire the glaze color of sky blue after the rain.

So, take your time, one day, he will be fired.

Besides, he is now more and more familiar with the treasure burning technique, and he is more and more confident in making high-quality goods.

The reason why Baoyao is mentioned again is entirely because the legendary firewood kiln is the creator of Baoyao.

It is said that at that time, Chai Kiln mobilized the best craftsmen and artists in the folk, carefully designed, strictly formulated, continuously improved the process, and improved the product quality.

They creatively mixed agate, emerald jade, gold and other raw materials into the glaze mud, integrating scientific formula, fire control, smooth lines, pattern modeling, fashion of the times and human soul perception.

Only in this way can the porcelain of "Baoying shoot the eyes, but the light can be used to catch the arrow. Baoying has it, but the arrow is not inevitable. It is rare to say the least." This should be the earliest treasure-made porcelain!

Now Chen Wenzhe can control the glaze to form yellowish green, greenish green, or even emerald green, but he can't make it bluer.

Of course, he can still make ordinary blue-medium blue, but he still can't make a pure sky-blue color.

So, does this kind of porcelain really exist?

Yes, but unfortunately not in China.

In 2015, a blue lily vase with the blue color of the sky was exhibited at the neon Sunshine Art Museum in Takeo City. It was suspected that it might be the "chai kiln", an official kiln in China that had been lost for thousands of years.

This exhibition is also the first time it has been made public.

Therefore, it is not without reason that the current Chinese people hate the little devils. Many of our national treasures have been robbed by them.

Know the shame and be brave. Although the craftsmen in their country are very good at boasting, the craftsman spirit is still worth learning!

After making four small lotus flower bowls, Chen Wenzhe stopped.

It should be almost there, no need for more.

Looking at the remaining small bowls, the craftsmanship of this thing is simple, and the production speed is very fast. If he is not careful, the quantity produced is a bit too much.

"Monochrome porcelain is very active in the market recently!"

Monochromatic glaze is considered to be the highest state of porcelain collection.

Everything goes from simplicity to complexity, and from complexity to simplicity, and the same goes for appreciating porcelain.

The pink of peach blossom, the red of early sun, the green of emerald, the blue of deep sea...

Pure and simple, returning to the true, the purest beauty.

In fact, these are dog skins. In the final analysis, it is because of the market.

It turned out that Chen Wenzhe had never cared about the market, but Li Jinli couldn't help caring about it.

Therefore, he was forced to know a little bit.

Monochromatic porcelain has been very popular in the market recently. Of course, it is antiques that people are after.

However, how much are antiques?

Besides, how many people can afford the price of tens of millions or hundreds of millions?

Therefore, the high price of monochrome porcelain antiques will inevitably stir up the monochrome porcelain market among modern artworks.

Li Jinli talked about it more times, so he didn't mind doing more.

Anyway, white porcelain, celadon porcelain, and ruby-glazed porcelain are also monochromatic porcelain, which will not affect his creative path at all.

White porcelain small bowls, celadon small bowls, and ruby ​​red glaze small bowls can all be made.

However, when white porcelain is used on small bowls, it always feels that there is not much advantage.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe couldn't help drawing a few more times, and made ink and color porcelain with the effect of ink painting!

After finishing it, he didn't feel satisfied, so he simply made a Handicap Zun.
