Chapter 1425: A Box of Fragments
After drinking tea, Wu Qingshan, who was originally interrupted by the arrival of Huo Sining and Gu Xu, spoke again:
"Uncle Jiang, I bothered my master to help pull the strings out this time, I really want you to help. I brought all the things www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion, don't be busy refusing first, look at my things and then decide, what do you think?"
Wu Qingshan said this to the thin old man sitting opposite him.
Huo Sining had some doubts about the identity of the old man opposite, although she had never deliberately paid attention to it, but she had also read newspapers and magazines, the old man in front of her, she felt that he looked very familiar, and now she heard Wu Qingshan call this person Uncle Jiang, Huo Sining faintly guessed a few points in her heart.
The thin old man on the other side was silent and did not speak, but his eyes did not reveal an unhappy look, Wu Qingshan saw this, and hurriedly took out a shockproof foam box from the backpack behind him.
opened the box and saw more than a dozen large and small fragments exposed inside, and several people who were originally careless suddenly sat up straight, and even Huo Sining's eyes widened.
These porcelain tiles are irregularly shaped, round or flat, rounded or sharp, with a base and a waist, and can be seen to be composed of a fragment of a whole piece of porcelain that has been broken.
......After seeing the features on these porcelain tiles clearly, Huo Sining couldn't help but gasp, and the expression on his face froze.
"You ......"
The lean old man had opened his mouth wide in shock, and the old man was speechless for a long time, and at last his face regained a solemn and serious look, and with trembling hands he picked up a piece of broken porcelain in the foam box, took out reading glasses and put them on, and took out a magnifying glass to observe it carefully.
Huo Sining's gaze also fell on another piece of broken porcelain, the same movement as the lean old man, even the old man Shi Ronghe couldn't help but stretch out his hand, and each pinched a piece of broken porcelain and put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look.
The outer wall of these porcelain tiles has a glazed surface, and the color of the glaze is very special, if you have to describe it in Chinese, I am afraid that it is the most appropriate to describe it with a poem, that is: the rain has broken the sky and the clouds, and this color will be the future.
This poem is the Song Dynasty royal special imperial kiln fired the first batch of Ru kiln, kiln officials asked Song Huizong to name its color, Song Huizong gave the imperial approval, after that, azure color is the color name of Ru kiln porcelain.
That's right, these pieces of broken porcelain in front of me are the authentic broken cloud blue, just like the color of the sky after the rain and the sky is clear, which looks natural and warm and exquisite.
However, Huo Sining has not seen Ru kiln, the real Ru kiln is actually very close to this azure cloud breaking color, but compared with the color on these broken porcelain tiles in front of him, Huo Sining always feels that the heat and senses are still a little worse.
But if it weren't for the Ru kiln, the azure glaze at the mouth of other kilns would definitely not reach this level.
The color of these broken porcelain pieces is more verve than the azure glaze of the Ru kiln, if it is not the Ru kiln, is it ......
Huo Sining had a bold assumption in her heart, but she was afraid that she would say the wrong joke, so she could only hold this idea in her heart first, waiting for Shi Lao and Mr. Jiang in front of her to speak first.
Facts have proved that Huo Sining's guess is not whimsical, after the old Mr. Jiang carefully checked the glaze texture of the broken porcelain piece in his hand, the old man said with a little trembling:
"I have imagined countless times, the real firewood kiln will be what the color will be, and even go out to observe the sky when the heavy rain is clear, our Jiang family has been living on curium porcelain for generations, and has come into contact with countless famous kiln porcelain, but none of the porcelain can achieve the effect of breaking through the clouds and the sky. ”
So I have always felt that the records in the book are exaggerated, in fact, the so-called color of the firewood kiln is actually the result of the ancients adding oil and vinegar to spread the truth. ”
"But now that I see these fragments in your hand, I am finally willing to admit that I was wrong, this is the cloud breaking azure I was looking for, this color is exactly the same as the clear sky after the rain when I was young and waiting under the eaves, looking up at the clear sky after the rain, ......"
As soon as these words came out, several people in the stone pavilion were in an uproar, and the old man Shi Ronghe stood up immediately, and asked eagerly: "Old Jiang, are you sure this is a firewood kiln?!"
Jiang Lao stood up and took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Blue as the sky, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, sound like a chime, moisturizing and fine lines." There are many coarse loess, and the fine color is different, which is the crown of all kilns. Although the porcelain was broken, it could still be seen that it should be in the shape of a whole moon cloud disk. ”
"These fragments are loess tires, and the lower part is not glazed, which shows that the conditions for firing this plate were extremely limited at that time, and then look at the shape and color, whether it is glaze or color, it is completely consistent with the characteristics of the firewood kiln recorded in the history books. ”
"Of course, without instrument testing, of course I don't dare to fully pack the ticket, but I am seventy percent sure, this should be more valuable than what Yuan blue and white Chenghua Doucai, more in line with the name of 'tile is worth a thousand gold'. ”
Wu Qingshan on the side was already dumbfounded, he heard Jiang Lao say so much, his mind was blank, and after a while, he asked dryly: "Jiang Lao, you said this is ...... Firewood, firewood kiln? No, not Ru kiln?"
As soon as Shi Ronghe saw Wu Qingshan's appearance, he knew that his apprentice might not have figured out the situation at all.
In fact, it is true that the reason why Wu Qingshan took this opportunity to bring these pieces over was because he always thought that these broken porcelain pieces were Ru kiln azure glaze, and he didn't think of these things with the firewood kiln at all.
He underestimated the true value of these broken porcelain pieces, but he didn't expect to get back a bunch of legendary firewood kiln fragments!
In the 5,000-year history of China, there have been many varieties of fine porcelain, and in the Song Dynasty, the development of porcelain reached its peak.
At this time, the five famous kilns Ruguan Ge Junding can be said to have reached the peak of the world's porcelain.
However, this does not mean that these five famous kilns are completely invincible, in fact, there is another kind of porcelain that stands proudly above the five famous kilns, that is, the firewood kiln.
The firewood kiln is the porcelain created by Chai Rong, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty five generations later.
Later generations knew that Zhao Kuangyin was wearing a yellow robe, but they didn't know that what Zhao Kuangyin took away was the world of Chai Rongchai's family.
The evaluation of Chai Rong in the history books is still very high, but what the world can remember is often the winner, and the achievements made by the successful and defeated are often directly ignored or simply ignored.
Chai Rong is the emperor, but he is an emperor with a special habit, this emperor does not like the meat forest wine pool, does not like to sing poetry and painting, but is very interested in ores and soil, and research and firing porcelain, especially the firing of unique porcelain, is his greatest preference.
