Therefore, the production of this shadow celadon in the Song Dynasty must have been very large. How big is the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun"? In the Japanese country, South Korea, and some countries in Southeast Asia, it has actually been unearthed!

And the powder box, as a common daily necessities for women in the Song Dynasty, is of course very large. But no matter how big it is, after all, it is only used by women, and it is estimated that it is difficult to compare with the two things that need to be used, bowls and teacups. The reason why the compact has been handed down a lot is also because the device is small and closed, and it is not easy to break.

But the so-called large quantity is only relative, after all, it is a thing of the Song Dynasty, and it is a famous variety after all. Even if it is such a most ordinary shadow blue powder box from Raozhou kiln in the Song Dynasty, as long as it is intact and filmed, hundreds of thousands are still possible.

But this stall owner, the old man, put such a thing in a pile of high-imitation and ordinary porcelain of the Republic of China.

"Boss, how do you sell this small porcelain box?" After Tang Yi was optimistic, he spoke.

The old man glanced at it, "This small compact is not bad, don't look small and simple." ”

Tang Yi didn't squeak and waited for the old man to make an offer.

"Six hundred!" The old man groaned for a moment and spoke.

Tang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he really regarded it as an ordinary powder box during the Republic of China. Sometimes this eyesight is just one step away, and if a good thing is thrown in a pile of ordinary things, it may not be recognized. What's more, this small compact is a real thing to study the eye, and there are no models and decorations that can be studied.

"It's a pretty color, can it be cheap?" Tang Yi asked.

"This is green and white glaze, also known as shadow green, if it is from the Song Dynasty, it is not worth 100,000 or 200,000. And this is not a new thing, the Republic of China, six hundred is not expensive! The old man replied.

Look at it, you say it yourself! If it was the Song Dynasty, it would be the Republic of China! Sometimes it's not the kind of eye-catching that you don't know anything about, you know it's possible, but you just don't think it's it! It's also a kind of eye-punching. In the final analysis, it is still not enough.

"Okay. Then I'll be happy, too. Tang Yi ordered the money, "Boss, I'm from the north, it's rare to see this kind of blue and white glaze, can you ask where this thing came from?" ”

The old man was very happy when he saw Tang Yi, and he was also very happy, so he borrowed money and packed the small powder box, "It was collected in the rural people's homes, and there is nothing to say." ”

Tang Yi nodded and put away the small compact.

This Raozhou kiln system is one of the four major kilns in the south of the Song Dynasty, and the other three are Longquan kiln, Jizhou kiln, and Jianyao kiln, all of which are very famous. In the Song Dynasty, the once famous Yue kiln was already very weak.

The porcelain capital of the Song Dynasty, after the creation of Yingqing, there were many kilns. One of the characteristics of this is that there are many craftsmen and merchants who come and go, and there are almost all over the country. And there are many northerners, because the Liao and Jin grew during the two Song dynasties, the north was not peaceful, and many northerners also ran to the south.

Craftsmen and merchants from all over the world made a large number of porcelain from the porcelain capital circulate. Therefore, it is normal to receive this compact in rural Shaozhou. In particular, this compact has a simple shape and no complicated ornamentation, which is more in line with the fact that it should be used by ordinary people at that time.

Gao Taiming understood it, and said in his heart, why didn't I catch this shadow blue powder box in a daze? couldn't help but pat Tang Yi on the shoulder.

Liao Moer and Cao Xuanqi also looked at what Tang Yi bought. Cao Xuanqi naturally couldn't understand it at all. In her eyes, six hundred yuan to buy such a small porcelain box on the ground is really a loss, although she knows that it may be an antique. This compact gives people a direct visual experience, unlike the kind of ancient artwork that looks like an emperor, which is worth a lot of money.

However, utilitarian utensils and works of art are sometimes relative, such as a large number of utilitarian shapes in ancient times, which later became pure works of art, and the plum bottle was a wine jar from the beginning. This little compact, which is now also a work of art.

The four of them continued to walk inside, and came to a porcelain-based stall, Cao Xuanqi pointed to a relatively tall celadon beast ear, "Look, the color is about the same, but it's much more magnificent than the small powder box that Tang Yi bought." ”

Liao Mo'er smiled bitterly, is this the same thing? The shape is different, and the color is not the same! She lowered her voice and said in Cao Xuanqi's ear, "Sister Cao, this is something from the Longquan kiln, it is a typical celadon, and it is completely different from the shadow blue just now. And, the one you're talking about is a high imitation. ”

Things that seem very different from the insider's view, but the layman looks almost the same, but Cao Xuanqi didn't bother with this, "High imitation? Can you see it from so far away? I really like this look. ”

"If you like it, you can buy it, it's a few hundred dollars, and it's okay to be an ornament. But this kind of thing, you can go back to Yanjing and buy it again, Panjiayuan has it. Liao Mo'er said again.

Longquan kiln is the kiln mouth of Zhejiang Province, the color of celadon is of course different from the shadow blue, it is more verdant.

To this day, the popularity of Longquan kiln may be higher than that of Yingqing, which has something to do with the developed economy of Zhejiang Province today, and also has something to do with the fact that Longquan is more famous, such as Longquan Sword, which many people know.

There is one point worth mentioning here, Longquan kiln and one of the five famous kilns of "Ruguan Brother Junding" can be related.

The issue of the kiln site has always been controversial. However, there is a saying that many people agree with, that is, in Longquan.

It is said that there were two brothers in Longquan at that time, the elder brother was called Zhang Shengyi, the younger brother was called Zhang Shenger, and the kiln presided over by the elder brother was the brother kiln, and the kiln presided over by the younger brother was not called the younger brother kiln, but called the Longquan kiln.

However, the best period of the five famous kilns was in the Northern Song Dynasty, but the best period of Longquan kiln was the Southern Song Dynasty. Most of the Longquan kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty are that kind of bean green, and the tire is thick and the glaze is thin, and there are open pieces, which can be corroborated by the brother kiln. In the Longquan kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty, there were more beautiful plum greens and pink greens, and on the contrary, the tires were thin and the glaze was thick, and there was basically no opening.

Cao Xuanqi nodded and listened to Liao Moer. Originally, following three connoisseurs, if you buy it indiscriminately, it will be hopeless.

Tang Yi looked at Cao Xuanqi, "I have something from Longquan Kiln on hand, I can sell it to you if you like, anyway, I sell it to anyone." ”

"I can't afford anything from the Song Dynasty." Cao Xuanqi waved her hand again and again, "Your little powder box is worth so much money!" ”

"Who said it was from the Song Dynasty? It was from the Qing Dynasty. Tang Yi couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that it was the Longquan kiln in the Song Dynasty, would I be willing to do it?

Indeed, the Longquan kiln has been in existence since the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty, and it did not end until the Qing Dynasty, with more than 1,600 years, which can be regarded as the longest kiln system in Chinese history.

"Oh!" Cao Xuanqi nodded, "I really like this verdant color!" The second half of the sentence "looks better than your little compact" she held back and didn't say it.

"yes, it's beautiful. In the late Ming Dynasty, Longquan celadon was exported to Europe for the first time, which directly shocked the Europeans! Tang Yi said a few more words, "It is said that only the nobles could afford it at that time. Entertain guests with Longquan celadon, you have to have a little heart, and you may be taken away by the guests! ”
