Appreciation of blue and white porcelain

Identify a blue and white porcelain to master the following points:

(a) Look at the shapes of bottles, jars, and the like. Take a closer look at its rim, neck, shoulder, abdomen, and sole to see if there are features of the Yuan Dynasty. Also identify the shape of the tire. Body weight, comprehensive analysis of the shape. In the Yuan Dynasty, the general shape of the carcass, such as bottles and cans, was thick and hard.

(b) look glaze color element blue and white porcelain glaze white micro flash, Ying Run translucent, but there are blue and white porcelain white or partial blue. In the early Yuan Dynasty (Yanyu Period), blue and white porcelain glazes such as bottles and cans were used to make transparent white glazes, touch the glazed surface like a sense of glutinous rice, and sometimes the glaze had a matte color, and the green color was slightly blue-gray. Visibly brownish, look closely at the white spots on the glazed glazed surface. A small number of body glazes can be seen on the fine crumb layer. Oblique light sees the glaze slightly revealing irregular glaze wire stripes. The white glazes, the shroud glazes, and the white-glazed blue-and-white porcelains that began firing in the middle of the year are mostly white-white, slightly bluish green, and are white-glazed, with a transparent glassy texture.

(3) Looking at the blue-and-white color of blue-and-white blue and white porcelain is not stable, and the blue-and-white color of the blue-and-white porcelain is dizzy. There are two types of blue-and-white flowers: one is rich in color, and the other is rich in green and rich, with thick black rust, commonly known as “black louse”. When touched, the blue glaze on the glazed surface is uneven. This is the unique coloring effect of the imported “Su Mu Bo Green” material; the other is the domestic material, the blue and gray in the blue and green color of the homemade material, and some The color is blueish grayish or blueish blue with flashes of gray. The peony pattern of Yanyou's blue-flowering hair color is deep in the cloud of the fetus, like a lurking luster on the fetus. The blue-and-white floats and the glazed surface are closely attached. The halo and blue-flowering are deep-fried. The floating blue-and-white glaze has thick black silk and small dots. The blue pattern is decorated closely to the glaze and slightly concave. This is also the basic point of identifying the Jingdezhen Yuanqinghua and porcelain.

(4) The ornamentation of the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty can be divided into two categories. One is the use of imported materials painting decoration, with full composition, rich layers, neat painting features. For example, the pattern of the large plate is composed of three to five layers of dense patterns. The patterns of the bottles and cans are composed of three to eight patterns. The pattern is characterized by the coordination of the guests and the complexity of the subjects. The motifs are varied and varied. The story is composed of tangled flowers, algae, lotus ponds, double phoenix flowers, opening and closing branches, and bamboo and stone flowers and fruits. The floral pattern has the characteristics of large flowers and large leaves. Among them, the leaves of the entangled lotus leaf are painted in a gourd shape. The border of peony ornament is painted in a white beaded shape, the auxiliary variant lotus petals are often spaced, and the interior trim has blue-and-white features. Another kind of blue-and-white painting is made with domestic materials. Its pattern has the characteristics of smooth and unrestrained, pattern composition is relatively simple, and the drawing is relatively coarse, and various floral patterns are more common.

(five) look at the inner wall of the blue and white porcelain bottle, the tank wall is not glazed, the inner wall is sand tires, the body is generally made using a piece of adhesive, so the abdomen and the bottom of the device often leave obvious fetal traces. There is no trimming in the connection between the inside of the plum bottle and the shoulders, so there is a rough feeling. The inner wall fetal punctures are mostly fetal rims with a bulge of about 1 to 2 mm. The thickness is irregular, and the hand feels smooth and delicate. The sand on the inner wall of the bottle is slightly yellowish. The inner wall of the sand hole and the thin wall of the inner wall are obviously visible. The upper part of the belly is generally not repaired, and the lower abdomen to the bottom has a lot of trim marks. The inner wall of the bottle is clearly visible. . The strong light obliquely looks at the inner wall of the dizzy sand eyes and flashes a starlight spot, emitting a light, also known as a cloudy sunshine spot.

(6) Looking at the bottom of the Yuan Dynasty The bottom of the Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white porcelain vases and cans were mostly indented in the foot, and the foot was thick and thin. A few feet were lateral oblique. The digging feet were shallow and deep, mostly dug shallow feet. In the case of bowls and bowls, most of the feet are obliquely chamfered. However, whether they are scorpions or circulators, they have a more regular and irregular feel. Bottles, jars, and the like, some of which have a tight feeling of foot sand, and some have a slightly loose sense of fetal quality, small trachoma and black paste pits are clearly visible, and some of the plantar micro-prominence was chicken-like heart. Bottles and cans have swirling marks on the soles of the feet. They are red and flaming red, and some of them are visible at the bottom of the circle and on the bottom of the feet. There are dark enamel spots of different sizes, and there are natural Explosive.

(7) It is also very important to see the color of the blue-and-white elements of the bottle and canister. The outer feet of the bottle and jar are generally thicker with a thicker enamel showing water-green color, but also have a duck egg blue color. The body's glazed surface tends to appear blue-white. Light blue or yellowish brown. In the early Yuan Dynasty, the blue-and-white porcelain bottles and cans were obviously colored, and the color was different from that of the air in terms of dryness, humidity, temperature, and seasons. In the early and middle (Yanchao period) of the Yuan Dynasty, slight sweating was sometimes observed on the glaze of blue-and-white porcelain glazes, such as bottles and cans. Generally, it was a hot weather season. There were blue and white glazes in the early and middle dynasties of the Yuan Dynasty, and most of the blue and white glazes on the Shufu glaze. There is no air bubble. There will be bubbles on the blue and white porcelain, white glaze, and white glaze of the blue and white glaze that have been fired from the middle of the year, but there will be two types of bubbles, small bubbles, and most of the blue and white porcelain glazes will look dry and transparent.
