Porcelain has been the pride of the Chinese for thousands of years, but the British broadened their thinking on kaolin white porcelain, let themselves go, and mixed about 40% of beef bone powder into the porcelain clay, giving birth to heresy - bone china. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

More than 2,000 years ago, China exported ceramics to Europe, and the Venetian merchants who watched a lot of banknotes flowing to the East were of course not idle, and countless craftsmen on the glass islands of Venice have been working hard for this.

It wasn't until the seventeenth century that one of the skilled craftsmen got the thin fetal porcelain produced in Jingdezhen, which was as thin as paper, as white as jade, as bright as a mirror, and as sound as a chime, and sold at an extremely expensive price in Europe.

A piece of porcelain can be exchanged for an army, and lamps made of thin porcelain have a more fantastical and mysterious effect than glass lamps.

The unconvinced British were thinking of selling crows to China. Before the film, there was a bit of work, for example, they began to work porcelain, adding bone meal and aluminum powder to the clay to achieve a less transparent milky white color of the glass.

It's a pity that the imitation is always imitation, and it has not fully achieved the effect of thin porcelain, so it will change the sales variety, since there is no effect on the inverted animal bones, so I turned to the plant and extracted C17H19NO3 from it.

Since there is a possibility of bone china, then you can give it a try.

Fortunately, during his internship in Jingdezhen, Zhao Chengping did not focus on the painting of glazed patterns like other students, but carefully understood the differences between the five famous kilns in China and the firing methods of porcelain from other countries in the world with the potters.

I don't remember anything else, what I remember most clearly is about the temperature of bone china, the firing temperature of ordinary white porcelain is about 1300 degrees, and bone china is about 1200 degrees, and in the firing process, the shrinkage rate of bone china is very large, the finished product will shrink by about 20 percent, and the ordinary white porcelain is only 7 percent, so the shape is very easy to deform, if you want to burn a bowl or plate or something like that, you must put it in a special mold to fire.

As for such a complex shape, it is definitely not suitable to use bone china for firing.

Zhao Chengping grabbed a handful of soil: "This kind of soil can only be made to make porcelain with simple shapes, and what I want to do cannot be burned with this kind of soil." ”

He paused, and then said, "Actually, I'm also curious why the Yiren carry bone china clay. What the hell are these people here for? ”

Listening to him finish talking about bone china, Luo Xinyuan, who was originally very angry about not being able to complete it in time, was angry, and he had also seen bone china, if it was sold in China, it might be sold at a good price.

"Is it too late now?" Zhao Chengping asked the potter.

The potter shook his head, there were still seven days before delivery, and Zhao Chengping's reservation was really huge, and only half of it could be burned, and half of it couldn't be rushed out anyway.

The capacity of each porcelain kiln is limited, and the potter's grasp of the heat is also a very difficult thing to say, and there is also the possibility of kiln change, although the kiln change may appear more peculiar color of the unique product, but more likely to burn out very bad things.

Therefore, Zhao Chengping did not want to hand over this matter to too many porcelain kilns to share the matter.

If there is such a big gap in half, it will have a very huge impact on the delivery, Zhao Chengping has a pair of pinched porcelain clay in his hand, Luo Xinyuan looked at the pile of deformed porcelain, and was speechless for a while.

In addition to porcelain, there are several options: metal, just like the earliest material of Weizhen, is bronze, but there are not too many copper and tin mines in the local area, and a large number of them have to be transported from other places, and bronze fans need to be remade, and the time is only afraid that it will be delayed more.

There is also lacquerware, but lacquerware can only be used as drinking utensils, not as sake jars.

In the case of clay pottery, it is easy to get a large amount of clay, and the molds of pottery and porcelain can also be used, which is not a problem, and the success rate is higher.

The only problem is the final decoration, the porcelain looks gorgeous, warm and shiny, but the pottery looks much worse.

Although Zhao Chengping has wonderful brushstrokes, no matter how good-looking the flowers and plants are, they can't show anything on the loess background, and they can only match the style of ink and wash landscapes.

Don't worry, think about it carefully, Zhao Chengping closed his eyes, and Luo Xinyuan was also searching for something that could be used for delivery in his memory.

Suddenly, the two opened their eyes at the same time, happened to look at each other, and said in unison: "Day. Ben pottery. ”

For the Yi people, China and Japan. Ben, all belong to the far east, although the day. Ben experienced a series of changes in advance, such as the Black Ship Switch, the Meiji Restoration, etc., but for Europeans, the Japanese . Ben's handicrafts, like Chinese objects, have not yet entered the Western market in large quantities.

If on the day. On the basis of this pottery, with the design of Chinese style, it is an unprecedented bold attempt.

And can be the day. The combination of the sophistication and the atmosphere of China requires the designer to have a deep understanding of the cultural traditions of both countries.

Just now Luo Xinyuan can also think of the day. This pottery shows that he also has some insight and must be able to do this job.

Zhao Chengping asked, "Brother Luo has also seen the sun." This pottery? ”

Luo Xinyuan smiled: "I'm ashamed to say that when Brother Zhao was studying in the provincial capital, my father sent me to study in the East, but unfortunately, I didn't learn anything after all, so I had to come back in disgrace." ”

I thought that Luo Xinyuan would only be with Japan when he was doing business. This pottery has some contact, but I didn't expect that people have already gone abroad and seen the world.

"Brother Luo is so powerful, I don't know which university you studied in Japan?" Zhao Chengping asked.

It was obvious that Luo Xinyuan was stunned for a moment, and then he paused, and then said, "Imperial University." ”

"Imperial University? The one in Tokyo? Amazing, top student of Tokyo University, I thought you would go to Japan. This Army School. Zhao Chengping tentatively chased after him again.

Luo Xinyuan smiled: "Army red deer." ”

"You're in the navy, you're going to be ashamed." Zhao Chengping answered smoothly.

The two looked at each other and smiled again, and Luo Xinyuan asked, "How do you still know this?" ”

"Well, I listened to my classmates when I was studying in the provincial capital." Zhao Chengping put down the porcelain clay in his hand: "Since I want to make pottery again, then I have to make a design drawing again." ”

After laying the paper, Zhao Chengping thought about it for a while, and drew on the paper the most stylish Japanese sake bottle he had ever seen in his memory. (To be continued.) )
