Chapter 374: Egg White Fulu
"Who said this porcelain doesn't come with a paragraph?" Xu Beiwu smiled.
"When did I become blind?" Fei Fei couldn't help but look at the bottom of the small jar again, there was really no money!
Xu Beiwu said with a smile, "Who said that the money must be on the bottom?"
Fei Fei is completely clear now, this person is not only a master, but also came to Huoyunxuan, some time ago, the yellow glazed tripod furnace of the brother kiln was too noisy.
However, this person does not seem to have any malicious intentions.
"Sir, your surname, how about sitting down and talking?" Fei Feiyi stretched out his hand and let Xu Beiwu to the Eight Immortals table by the window of the store.
"My surname is Xu. Xu Beiwu did not refuse.
Fat Bi respectfully made tea, and after the tea, he handed over a big front door, and waited for Xu Beiwu to take two sips, and then he was relieved. It seems that although someone picked up a leak in the store, it is not stuffy.
"Huo Yunxuan is quite famous for being an old kiln in the industry. But porcelain all the way, it's not just the old kiln, boss, you haven't heard of the Shufu porcelain, right?" Xu Beiwu directly broke it.
Fat Fei suddenly realized, no wonder the white glaze of this jar is a little special, blue, it turned out to be eggshell green!
The so-called Privy Council is the Privy Council of the Yuan Dynasty, the highest military organ of the Yuan Dynasty, and its status is self-evident.
In a narrow sense, the Privy Council requires the Fuliang Porcelain Bureau, and the customized porcelain is the official kiln in the official kiln of the Yuan Dynasty.
There is also a broad sense of saying that in the official kilns of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a similar style of fine porcelain. The Privy Council is dedicated to customization, after all, it is a minority, and the official kiln supervised by the Fuliang Porcelain Bureau has also produced a considerable part of porcelain of roughly the same quality and system, which is also collectively called Privy porcelain by later generations.
This said that the cardinal porcelain, Fei Fei suddenly understood two points, the first, is the egg white glaze just mentioned.
Second, the fetus of Shufu porcelain is also different from most porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty. The porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty was generally thicker and bulkier. The porcelain clay used in the porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty is not the kaolin clay common in the official kilns of the Ming and Qing dynasties, but the macang soil, which is not delicate enough. However, the cardinal porcelain is relatively delicate, although the porcelain clay is still made of hemp clay, but the production is more cumbersome and fine.
However, I understand two points, but there are still two points that I don't understand.
"Mr. Xu, thank you for your advice. But there are two points I don't understand, you said that this small jar is Shufu porcelain, but I don't see the characteristics of Yuan Dynasty porcelain, the Yuan Dynasty is basically a big jar. And this, the shape is a bit weird. Fat asked.
"You're lacking in the glaze. Xu Beiwu said unhurriedly.
Fatty nodded repeatedly. He is indeed a short board in this regard, and the glaze of the old kiln is basically monochrome glaze, and he is relatively proficient. But the porcelain outside the old kiln, the reason why his level is not high, the key is in the understanding of the glaze, others, such as the color characteristics of the Yuan blue and white flowers, the shape, carcass, and color materials of the Ming and Qing official kilns, which are okay. Of course, the so-called lack is relative to the master.
"This egg white glaze, in addition to the blue color, also has a milky feeling, it must be the real product of the official kiln, and there is no need to look at the shape at all. You must know that the Yuan Dynasty was very short, and the kind of egg white advocated by the Yuan Dynasty court was not liked by the Han people. Yongle in the Ming Dynasty burned a sweet white glaze, and the egg white glaze has never been seen again. Xu Beiwu said with a smile.
Fat wanted to speak and stopped, although this had been made very clear, but he had preconceived ideas, and he couldn't solve the knots of this shape in his heart.
Xu Beiwu looked at him, "That's it, you see this egg white glaze, which is a transitional variety from monochrome glaze to underglaze color." ”
The fat is a little transparent, and this layer of window paper is finally opened, "I understand, this small can, no, this half-bottle and half-canned thing is actually a transitional variety between the plum bottle and the big can." This shape is actually the foundation for the Yuan blue and white jar that appeared in the future. Moreover, the printed pattern on this is also open and closed, which is in line with the floral decoration of Yuan blue and white. ”
Xu Beiwu nodded approvingly, "You are transparent." What else do you not understand?"
Fei Fei pointed to the jar, "There's no money down there." You just pointed out the cardinal porcelain, but as far as I know, the standing pieces of the cardinal porcelain, there are paragraphs, are engraved in the print with the word "cardinal", but this is not, only under the peony, there are two words: "Fulu". This is a commonly used blessing language among the people, plus the previous understanding, I concluded that it was a Ming Dynasty kiln. ”
"In fact, most of the official porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty did not carry a paragraph. And the word Fulu is strictly an inscription, not a paragraph. Therefore, to conclude that the cardinal porcelain, you can not look at this. But since you brought it up, I'll talk about it. Xu Beiwu took a sip of tea and continued:
"The inscriptions that have appeared in the cardinal porcelain, the most famous, are naturally the two words of the cardinal. But there are more than these two, Fu Lu is also one of them, and Taixi is relatively well-known. Fulu and Taixi may not be specially customized by the Privy Council, but they must be official porcelain supervised by the Fuliang Porcelain Bureau, and most of them are used by princes and nobles. So in a broad sense, it also belongs to the cardinal porcelain. ”
Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. Don't say that there was no Internet available back then, and even now, this type of vessel may not be searchable in the cardinal porcelain.
Fei Fei was completely convinced, pulled Xu Beiwu and didn't let him go, saying that he had to set a good table.
Xu Beiwu still did not refuse.
When the two were eating, Fei Feicai took advantage of the strength of three glasses of wine to ask Xu Beiwu for his specific name.
As soon as Xu Beiwu said, Fatty was in a trance for a while, and suddenly remembered, "You, you are Master Qin's senior disciple, right?"
"Oh, have you heard of me?" Xu Beiwu was really a little surprised by this.
"I used to be an apprentice in a kiln factory in the porcelain capital, and I didn't learn much about it, but I have heard a lot about this industry!"
"You're not bad, you've become a boss from an apprentice!" Xu Beiwu said with a smile.
In this way, the two are considered familiar. came and went, Fei Fei had to worship Xu Beiwu as a teacher, Xu Beiwu didn't promise the title, but he promised to teach some things. Of course, you can't teach it to outsiders.
Later, Fei Fei entered the Xuanwu Pavilion of the Celestial Planet Tower. Because of the lack of attainments in glaze, he worked hard in this regard, and finally not only looked at the level of glaze, but also made porcelain glaze is not low, especially the glaze of porcelain. Hence the nickname Fatty.
After chatting for a while, Xu Beiwu and Sun Zhongyuan offered to leave. Before leaving, Xu Beiwu told Lao Hong that after revealing the woman's letter tomorrow, he could contact Sun Zhongyuan directly.
The next morning, Sun Zhongyuan had just finished breakfast when he received a phone call, but it was not Lao Hong, but Miss Dong.
