Jingdezhen's porcelain kiln

Speaking of the kiln as early as the Neolithic Age, China has invented a "cave kiln" used to Shaozao pottery. Shang and Zhou dynasties, there is a flame or a round-the kiln and kiln side, but at the time of porcelain and pottery kiln Shaozao with no special kiln, Shang and Zhou dynasties, like the original porcelain and pottery Hardware Yin Wen is the same kiln Fired. With the continuous development of the system Porcelain, kiln gradually separated from the Tao and become specialized Shaozao porcelain kiln.

According to form, there are kilns kilns steamed bread (round kiln), Long Yao, class kiln, gourd-shaped kiln, egg and other kiln. Steamed bread kiln and the Long Yao is the most common, and longer in use , North Plains to make more use of steamed bread kiln, and the mountains of the South, Mid-levels while the construction of the mountain Long Yao; on the following talk about these shapes of the furnace.

Steamed bread kiln, also known as "round kiln," and bore kiln fire room together for a steamed-shaped space, therefore its name. Steamed about kiln seen in the late Western Zhou Dynasty, has been adopted so far and it is popular in the north of the shapes of the ceramic kilns, Yao Men from the fire chamber, the furnace room, chimney, and other parts, living soil dug out to repair or Blank, built from brick. Steamed bread kiln is characterized by easy to control the speed of warming and cooling, moisturizing and good for roasting thick matrix, under high-temperature glaze porcelain larger viscosity; However, it is warming up, slower than the cool, firing a relatively long time, And before and after the kiln temperature, not evenly distributed from top to bottom, so defective that easy.

Long Yao, also known as a long kiln, according to the slope or tilt mound construction, and more in the long kiln 30 to 80 meters between the shape of the past, it is called Long Yao. Long Yao Yao Tou sub-structure, the kiln bed, the back-end of three parts. Long Yao seen in the Shang Dynasty, the era of both Long Yao Yin Wen firing pottery Hardware, and the original blue bake, known as the "co-fired ceramics kiln with" the late Eastern Han Dynasty to the end of the co-fired ceramics kiln with the Situation, there have been special porcelain firing of Long Yao. Since then, the gradual growth of Long Yao, North Korea and the inclination of the structure has been improved so that the results improve burnt Long Yao, Song and Yuan period, there has been a Long Yao kiln in the indoor multi-channel block masonry wall, its Is divided into several small rooms, located off the lower part of pyrotechnic firewall holes so that the room between the same room with, the so-called "sub-Long Yao room." Until today, some areas of the South is still in use Longyao firing ceramics. Long Yao of the characteristics of the building is convenient to put on a burn large, high-yield, the heating, cooling rapidly and easily restored to maintain an atmosphere suitable for roasting matrix thin, high temperature viscosity smaller lime glaze Blue and White Porcelain, so it was Long Yao said is the cradle of porcelain.

Ming-class kiln seen in the kiln of Jiande, Song and Yuan Dynasties from the sub-Long Yao developed from the room. It is based on materials such as brick according to tilt the slope of the building, the inclination of 21 degrees, Yao Men from the fire chamber, a number of rooms and chimneys, and so on, each room in turn connects to the next since the end of the formation of class levels, so Called "class kiln." It installed burn-Long Yao large, high-yield and easy to control or steamed bread kiln, the temperature at a speed of the advantages at the same time have the strength to save fuel, suitable for burning of German white porcelain kiln, and other components with high potassium, Viscosity under high-temperature glaze in large porcelain.

Ceramics section of knowledge

Under normal circumstances, the all-Ru, without decoration. Because of its thick glaze, good tires described above. In that case, there is no history of the band patterns of Ru it? Great Britain Verde Foundation, a washed Ru, oval-shaped, inscribed in the middle of the two relative to wash fish. Because of its thick glaze, carved fish vague, very difficult to see. As a result of the Qianlong period Huapu court records, it was "optimistic with floral patterns" pattern. Eunuchs who have read a half-day, two to the head as well in the first two, so recorded as "wishful floral patterns." Ru said that this should not look at pictures is to see in-kind are not clear. This wash Ru, now there are two things in the world, a major in the United Kingdom Verde Foundation, a National Palace Museum in Taipei.

generally like porcelain, first of all have to look at the porcelain section know, that is, porcelain turned to look at the bottom of what to write. TV speech, to buy the fake porcelain, doubled at the end of the following Liangzi read: Western Han Dynasty. Have become a joke! Not the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Han people to know how he is a Western Han Dynasty.

in the Song Dynasty, porcelain and there is no written under the section of the system, only the written part of the porcelain section. Ru such as the section that so few know: the first is the A, B, C. We have a very simple code, in accordance with the order. However, this number is not the time to write to burn up, are then cut up the.

The second, written under the clear text, for example, write "from China". "From China," what do you mean? Bong-Yokado, the Southern Song Deshou Palace of the side hall in a palace, is the Song Emperor Zhao Gou of Chong Fei Liu Guifei place in a lot of writing "from China," she Ru are used. Recorded in the history books, Liu Guifei also a little talent, will paint a picture, the two sides have her own chapter, a freshman small, engraved "from China" and has since covered Huawan above. Hua Feng-section of Ru Liu Guifei should be a private thing.

the National Palace Museum in Taipei to have a paper mallet bottle, is also inscribed above "from China" was mentioned, keep an open space in the middle. Emperor Qianlong see, can not be reconciled, and myself have to think what some bearing. In fact, say, the status of Emperor Qianlong higher than Feizi. Qianlong wrote the poem inscribed above: "Dingzhou evil white-bearded, Yu Tao Extraordinary and tender green. I want to its copper Canal locks, END at the end of the old iron nails over." Hammer this paper is a bottle of the original I write small, by the Qianlong period, I had broken, bordered by a copper ring. "I want to lock their copper Canal", which means I want to become a little strong, had no choice but to use copper on the package. Emperor Qianlong of a broken bottle still cherish this, do you think about later, I will certainly be a Ru. So far the bottles are still the National Palace Museum in Taipei, then trimmed with brass ring.

know there is a paragraph, just write a single word: Cai. Is a name that immediately look up at that time have a high official surnamed Cai's who? Do not have to search, Cai Jing ah! One person, on top of people. Four of the Song Dynasty calligraphy and the Soviet Union, yellow rice, Cai, "Miss" should refer to the original Cai Jing, written in beautiful words. But because he is a traitor, he was "Cai" Cai Xiang has been replaced. Chinese people have a very strong likes and dislikes, you are a bad guy, they go for you. Cai Jing to the position at that time, it is entirely possible to use Ru.

Under normal circumstances, the all-Ru, without decoration. Because of its thick glaze, good tires described above. In that case, there is no history of the band patterns of Ru it? Great Britain Verde Foundation, a washed Ru, oval-shaped, inscribed in the middle of the two relative to wash fish. Because of its thick glaze, carved fish vague, very difficult to see.

Eunuchs who have read a half-day, two to the head as well in the first two, so recorded as "wishful floral patterns." Ru said that this should not look at pictures is to see in-kind are not clear. This wash Ru, now there are two things in the world, a major in the United Kingdom Verde Foundation, a National Palace Museum in Taipei.

Ru features section with the knowledge

What characteristics do? Recorded in ancient books were a bit vague, saying that "truncactus pattern." Truncactus put it very abstract patterns, books, records are not clear, that is to say more or less glazed opening of the film texture Maomao Zaza, and we see the crabs are small truncactus sharp burr, is the feeling.

The second point is "open Yulin Zhuang film." Your attention, Ru open-glazed porcelain piece with all the film did not open, the crack is diagonally on the point of view, rather than the straight forward. Diagonally on refractive index will be watched very beautiful.

Xiang Hui is the third child. We could see the Ru, is a child of light gray, as incense burned after the fall of Xiang Hui. Very thin child, under normal circumstances, and the child at the end of the same thickness. General porcelain, are at the end of thick, thin-walled.

Ru Guo Zu is burning, sesame nails. The so-called "burning Guozu" very professional, refers to a foot of the porcelain glaze, to glaze over wrap. "Sesame nail", refers to the foot with a small branch of the nailing, porcelain sticks in the air to burn, burn well, there will be a few at the bottom of the glazed, it is very particular about the process. In fact, from a scientific point of view, the half-cooked Ru is a child, did not Shaoshu is like a half-cooked bread. Why did it half-cooked? Ru is not Shao Shu, the Shao Shu If it's not on the glaze so beautiful. Ru can not burn the temperature reached 1,300 degrees to 1,200 degrees on the line. Sometimes in the pursuit of art, will not be able to strictly abide by the laws of science.

fourth point is that Ru glaze of blue-day show. At that time, and other kiln mouth, its color is blue days, we can see that the standard color. CAO ZHAO, in the Ming Dynasty "to the ancient grid" in this way: "Ru, the North and Song were burned. Light cyan, there are those who really truncactus patterns, patterns are not particularly good soil vein Zi-mei, thin Also very rare. "This is the CAO ZHAO Ru on the precise description, it is the color of light cyan, the glaze is very nourishing, if the book is even more rare. Ming Dynasty who was very reasonable, but we have to be flexible. For example, he said, "There are those who really truncactus patterns, patterns are not particularly good." Truncactus there really is a pattern, not better, compared with around this. , Said today, and there are no standards. Existing Ru, most of them have really truncactus pattern, but there are also a small number of non-open films, the so-called "no particular patterns were good."
