Chapter 100: Lang Kiln Red, Sacrificial Red, Cowpea Red
"Can this still be fun?" Hu Yunde laughed, "Why don't you disperse?"
"Hey, how can there be such a thing!" Luo Yuze hurriedly raised his hand, "The things I brought are yellow, why not hold a little money here?"
Chen Yongjun didn't seem to want to play anymore, "Your Dingyao can't be seen by ordinary people, it's yellow here, I'm afraid I'm going to go out somewhere else, right?"
"How can this be called Meng? Even if it is an old imitation of the Republic of China, such a color is rare······ Luo Yuze said, and suddenly looked at Hu Yunde, "Mr. Hu, Uncle Ning was embarrassed to ask me just now, what did you bring this time?"
"I also brought a piece of porcelain. Yesterday the discussion was so hot, I didn't have a turn for a while. ”
"Can't get out?" Luo Yuze's eyes rolled.
"It's a thing of Daya Zhai. However, the price is high, unprofitable, and only suitable for collection. ”
"Tell me what it is?"
"Kangxi official kiln ······"
"I'll go, it won't be the blue and white general jar, right?
"It's not. It's a small piece of red glaze······"
"Red glaze? Kangxi? That's Lang kiln red?"
Lang kiln red, a well-known monochrome glaze variety in the Kangxi official kiln.
In the forty-fourth year of Kangxi, Lang Tingji, the original political envoy of Zhejiang, was promoted to the governor of Jiangxi.
Jingdezhen is in Jiangxi, and the imperial kiln factory is in Jingdezhen. Lang Tingji's governor of Jiangxi was in the position for eight years, during which time a new type of monochrome glazed porcelain appeared in the Imperial Kiln Factory.
The glaze color is like blood, so the folk call it chicken blood red. Later, this red glaze spread to Europe, and Europeans called it ox blood red.
However, in the imperial kiln factory supervised by Lang Tingji, he preferred to call ruby red.
These names are all descriptions of glaze color, and for this category, it is called: Langyao red.
If you want to be poor, burn Lang Hong.
Lang kiln red copper as a colorant, the kiln to reach a high temperature of 1300 degrees, copper is very unstable at high temperature, so the color is extremely difficult to grasp.
So the yield is very low, so it is precious.
As soon as Wu Duo heard Luo Yuze say that Lang Yaohong was red, the identification knowledge in his mind also came out.
The glaze of Langyao red is bright, and the glaze has a glass sense of light, which has a strong visual impact.
Lang kiln red glaze thick, fetal bone white, after firing the mouth will be because of the glaze water deflow to form a "lamp grass mouth"; in order to prevent the glaze water from flowing through the foot, will scrape out a two-layer platform on the outside of the circle foot to block the glaze water, so that it can not flow.
This is the so-called "blurting out the foot does not flow".
"You don't take out such a good thing!" Luo Yuze obviously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
I like antique literature, but whenever I see or even hear about good things, it's like a greedy person smelling the fragrance of food and a lustful person seeing a beautiful woman's posture, sometimes it's really hard to control.
Wu Duo was also thinking about it. At the same time, I thought to myself that when I went to Daya Zhai in the future, my entry would definitely be greatly accelerated.
"It's not Lang Yaohong. Hu Yunde looked at Luo Yuze's appearance and couldn't help laughing.
"Mr. Hu, you can't finish what you have to say in one go, but you're shaking me to death!" Luo Yuze exhaled a long breath.
"It's you who are in a hurry to ask questions. Hu Yunde got up, "That's it, since you don't have fun, let's go and have a look, otherwise you kid will have to mumble nonsense." ”
"Okay, let's go!" Luo Yuze thought about it, what Hu Yunde brought was definitely not a bad thing, and he said that it was the official kiln of Kangxi, so he didn't ask, and just kept a little mystery.
Unexpectedly, Wu Duo couldn't hold back, "Uncle De, it won't be a red glaze, right?"
"Your appetite is too big!" Hu Yunde showed a helpless expression, "No. Let's keep guessing!
The sacrificial red glaze appeared earlier than the Langyao red, and it was rarer, the color was not the same, it was deeper and more stable, and it did not flow glaze and did not blur out, because it was mostly used as a sacrificial vessel and was named.
Sacrificial red glazed porcelain, which appeared in the early Ming Dynasty, is most famous for Xuande sacrificial red. Speaking of which, I have to sigh at the artistic level and pursuit of Emperor Xuande; Xuande Dynasty produced so many good things, which are inseparable from the emperor; moreover, Emperor Xuande's attainments in calligraphy and painting are also very high.
It can be said that the red glaze of later generations did not reach the level of the Xuande Dynasty, including the Kangxi Dynasty.
In fact, although the historical data is inconclusive, many scholars speculate that Langyao red is very likely to be a similar new variety derived from the unsuccessful firing of sacrificial red.
It's just that after this new variety came out, everyone found out: Oh, yes, so they didn't give up and insisted on continuing production.
As a result, the sacrificial red glaze is still a famous product, and Lang kiln red has also become a famous product.
When Wu Duo heard this, he simply didn't guess.
Chen Yongjun also followed them to Hu Yunde's room, but he never spoke, but smiled slightly after learning that it was not Lang Yaohong and Saihong.
As a result, what Hu Yunde took out was cowpea red glaze.
It is indeed a small piece, less than 20 centimeters high, and the maximum diameter is about 4 centimeters.
Although it looks like a bottle, because it is a skimming, it is more appropriate to call it "zun".
This is a cowpea red glazed laiphane zun.
This cowpea red, the color is not very easy to describe, slightly darker than Langyao red, slightly brighter than the sacrificial red; there are also two characteristics, one is that the red glaze is often mixed with green spots, and the other is that the red is uneven, deep and shallow.
Because it resembles red cowpea skin, hence the name.
Cowpea red glaze only appeared in the late Kangxi period, although it is not as famous as sacrificial red and Lang kiln red, but it is only used as a palace vessel, and the output is also very small, so it is also very high in value.
In addition, cowpea red glaze is a more formal name, and it also has an artistic name, called "beauty drunk".
And the shape of the device in front of him is very similar to a radish, and Raphane means radish, but Radish Zun is definitely worse than Radish Zun.
The bottom paragraph is a double-circle blue and white regular script with three lines and six characters: the Kangxi year of the Qing Dynasty.
"I'll just say that it's impossible for Mr. Hu to bring something bad!" Luo Yuze praised him, "If you take out this thing publicly, someone will definitely grab it!"
"If you don't grab it, what price does it depend on, what if I set five or six million?" Hu Yunde looked at Luo Yuze.
"Five million? That's a lot of money! Three million is about the same. Luo Yuze haha, "Three million plus a little for me!"
"I'm talking about five or six million, not five million, and the accurate pricing is a minimum of five or six million for old customers and old acquaintances, and ten thousand can't be lowered. "Hu Yunde interface.
"That's really bad for the city. Luo Yuze spread his hands, "This thing has to be auctioned to get the price you said." ”
At this time, Chen Yongjun suddenly spoke, "I remembered one thing, in the nineties, in the old lotus antique market in Yanjing, someone once spent one hundred and eighty yuan to pick up a cowpea red glaze Laihua Zun ······."
