Contemporary blue and white porcelain collection lotus lotus sharp angle

Blue and white porcelain, first in the Tang and Song Dynasties, matured and perfected in the Yuan Dynasty. At the turn of the Ming and Qing dynasties, blue and white porcelain declined from prosperity. The vicissitudes of life of blue and white porcelain have also been bearing the cultural precipitation, which has attracted increasing attention. “Little Lotus was only exposed at its sharp corners.” With the flourishing development of contemporary blue and white porcelain, a wave of contemporary blue-and-white porcelain collections quietly blew up. “The prime brooch depicts the blue-and-white strokes and the thick and faded peony is like the makeup of yours.” In the past two years, a song “Blue and White Porcelain” has helped people re-understand blue-and-white porcelain. Recently, the reporter interviewed Mr. Huang, the general manager of Guzhen Ceramics, and he talked to reporters about his experience of collecting blue and white porcelain over the years.

History: Culture goes back to life Blue and white porcelain has become popular in the past two years, and more is due to her ornamental value. One white, one green, simple and clean. Mr. Huang told reporters that blue-and-white porcelain is the best thing to see. The blue-and-white flower is a sub-glazed color that is colored with a cobalt material and is fired at around 1300 degrees Celsius. For this reason, the ancients have a cloud: "The multicolored is too beautiful, and the distinctive and fresh air, while the blue and white flowers are floating and unrestrained." From Yuan Dynasty till now, it is popular in the ceramic decoration with its unique Qingli and elegant decorative style.

Speaking of blue and white porcelain, Mr. Huang said that the young, Qing also! The use of blue-and-white materials to paint on the porcelain blank is similar to ink painting on rice paper. The material is divided into five colors and is fickle. The blue-and-white flowers are painted on the porcelain blank, with thick, strong, light, and light shades. The level to enrich the color of blue and white, especially the pattern of waterway processing, shows the author's mind and focus. (Waterway, a professional proverb, meaning the blank part of the pattern decoration, it is not a blank but a tangible pattern.) And it is precisely this, the blue and white decoration with its white and blue patterns, side by side, the color is elegant and fresh, Is an important representative of Chinese ceramic decoration, the traditional pattern of green patterns, in the hundreds of years of development history, has a deep cultural heritage, has been inherited and developed.

Current situation: Collection has just emerged. In the past two years, contemporary blue and white porcelain collections have begun to show dew.” Mr. Huang said that in the past, the craftsmen painted blue and white porcelain vases and pieces mostly, and now more authors have turned to drawing teapots and Teacups, even followed by trends, were affected by changes in the creative direction of Gaogong (the “national senior technologist”), and contemporary blue and white porcelain were more concerned than the previous two years.

However, since the drawing of blue and white porcelain has not yet come out with a clear standard, most of the blue and white porcelain are still flowing into the hands of collectors through the channels of various commercial companies. Mr. Huang frankly stated that whether a piece of blue and white porcelain has a collection value or an ornamental value depends to a large extent on the author’s self-cultivation and his personal background accumulated over the years. Instead of focusing solely on the titles and reputations of the craftsmen, they should not only focus on the martial arts.

It is understood that China's blue-and-white masters are also very few. The most famous ones are Wang Xiliang, Wang Enhuai, Xiong Gangru and others. Mr. Huang personally praised Wang Chenfeng, Xu Fanghua and Yu Guowang, among which Wang Chenfeng is more proficient in painting landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, beasts, etc.; and Xu Fanghua is good at painting Buddha statues; etc. Contemporary Cai Huafang’s Cai Xiaofang from Taiwan has selected many of his works as “ National ceremony" porcelain.

Appreciation: How to find a blue-and-white porcelain piece worthy of collection in contemporary blue and white porcelain? Mr. Huang said that there are three main points in the identification of the key. First is the "birth of the earth" of the blue-and-white porcelain works. The best material for the drawing and texture is the kaolin of Jingdezhen. Second, it is the skill of the painter. “In all styles, people are the most expensive, followed by mountains and rivers, and even beasts and birds and flowers.” Mr. Huang also told reporters that the quality of figure paintings depends on whether the figures are realistic or not. There is a sense of movement; landscape painting, on the other hand, focuses on three-dimensionality, sense of depth, and motion. The third point is to look at the color of the painting. The glaze is the brilliance of the blue color. Whether it is in line with the standard, the so-called color increase is uneven, but the color is light. Blue and white porcelain is very demanding on the firing temperature. "If the glaze is too thick, it will look like a cocoon. If the glaze is too thin, there will be pinholes. For this reason, people who are really the masters of blue-and-white drawing are often making their own ingredients, and most of the authors will only The other hand bought a good glaze on the hand.” Mr. Huang bluntly.

Direction: The collection is not very thin. Due to the long history of blue and white porcelain, the blue-and-white porcelains that are photographed at a high price are almost old blue and white porcelain. At present, there are also many special high-grade blue and white porcelain on the market. Mr. Huang told reporters that some high imitation blue and white porcelain can be as high as 99% in fidelity, and it is easy to cause confusion at the auction site.

Mr. Huang believes that the modern blue and white porcelain decoration techniques grafted the traditional blue and white porcelain language symbols, making it both inherited and developed, highlighting the important artistic value and cultural connotation of contemporary blue and white porcelain, and the significance and value of the collection of contemporary blue and white porcelain will also become increasingly prominent. .
