Ancient history of the Song Dynasty Ceramics

Ancient history of the Song Dynasty Ceramics

These ancient records, have a huge impact on future generations, the collection of Song Ci, Yanbi Chen Ru. I know as much about who he is also aware of the record, I sometimes chat with him said those words, he read the book a lot, and then determined to Ru collection. He compared this determination, told me: "I am not in possession of non-Ru, other things are not." This is when I say? More than 20 years ago! To this day, he does not have to buy one of them. He's a great determination, but he did not know of Ru rare.

collection to a large extent, I think it is a down-to-earth, is also a Suiyuan. Today, we can not say that we do not have the opportunity to meet Ru, but little chance. You buy lottery tickets may be unintentionally prize; but you have to buy non-winning goes, it took a strong, it is a difficult job for him. This friend of mine is to buy non-winning goes, so today he did not buy the. His attitude is very firm, told me: "My Collection otherwise have been ming, amazed, I will certainly give you a close look at the Ru!" I really hope that he will be able to meet Ru, but the aspiration of the deal .

Ru their scarce, so precious. In the history of various types of literature, it is highly. As for the Royal Ru, to the use of the emperor. People in the Southern Song Dynasty well, "the old martial arts" in a period of record: "Shaoxing October 21, the first Emperor Fortunately, the River Prince ... ... ... ... Bong-Jin Zhang Ru a bottle washing one, a censer, incense-in-one Hong-ball, four lights, the second son of Yu, a pair of incense, a Lian, a small Lian. "Ru total number of pieces of it? 16. This is all the Song of the historical documents recorded the largest number of Ru, said that the first Southern Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Gou, in 1151 to Prince Zhang Qinghe Xunxing home, he may come out here, into their home. Zhang was flattered, of course, are the emperor to their home. He took a group of Ru into the porcelain from the Emperor, which at that time is very precious gift, so be careful of "the old martial arts" in the detailed notes.

here said that most of the Ru porcelain is easy to understand, such as "incense burner," we think more or less know what it is; "co-Xiang", is certainly covered. In that case, "a Lian, a small Lian," what is it? It was speculated that it was a box stove, and some professional books, which they called the "Lian." Coincidentally this matter, which is now the world's Lian-to-deposit on the two, a small freshman. Some of the largest in the United Kingdom Verde Foundation, a diameter of 23.8 cm; a small diameter of 18 cm, are in the possession of the Imperial Palace in Beijing. So it was that the ancient books in the two is that the two "great Lian-and small-Lian," made it very clear. Beijing's Forbidden City that I personally took Lian, very light.

Ru why this precious? There are historical records, "the magazine-ha": "Jin Shao Ru palace, with agate for the glaze." This very important document, proposed by the Ru glaze is shown by the agate. We know that the ancient Chinese jade and agate on the full awe, agate is a very valuable material. Shaozao in Ru, glaze Riga at the end of the agate, the luster of Ru glazed porcelain with other different. There is a coincidence, the week so why write? Yu was the local production agate. So, this is not smoke without fire. History has never recorded any other porcelain, in the glaze used in the agate. But from a scientific point of view, the agate What can have a glaze on the benefits and there has been no conclusion.

the Five Dynasties period, the Kingdom of Wu Yue Qian's regime Shaozao also a lot of secret porcelain color. At that time, Wu Yue Kingdom in Hangzhou area, happened to be secretary of the regional production of porcelain color, so there are a large number of colored porcelain secret. At that time, kept secret porcelain color on the floor tribute to the Northern Song Dynasty Emperor. The latter part of the Five Dynasties, Wu and Yue States to reach an agreement with the Northern Song Dynasty: to be at Wuyue tribute. Qian regime do not want to go to war, and they feel that they can not play with the fundamental Zhao Kuangyin this battle, so he surrendered.

recorded in the history of a lot of time this story. Was Jiao Wu Yue Zhao Kuangyin to the Northern Song Dynasty capital of Kaifeng, he dared not go, because there Nantang Li Yu in front of them an example. Li Yu is not going to let Song Taizu exterminate the final. Out of the Southern Tang, Wu Yue, Wang helped a lot of busy, in other words out of the army. Southern Tang exterminate, to honor the emperor Wu Yue Wang, told him to go to Kaifeng, he would not dare to go up. By Kaifeng, the emperor treated him to send a gift. Before I left last time and give him a package, said: "This package, you may look now, also on the road Do not look, look after the home." At that time, from Kaifeng to Hangzhou, to go for a long time. Wu Yue Wang whispered on the road, this could not help but read the package open, the bag is it? Secretary of State is on the Memorial, the emperor to kill him or leave him in Kaifeng, let him go back. In other words, Zhao Kuangyin's famous phrase: on the side of the couch, how could other people sleep? At that time, the South fell 78 such people, one must pick up the Northern Song Dynasty. By Wu Yue Wang here, Zhao Kuangyin magnanimous mind and let him go back. He particularly Thanksgiving, he said: "I am three years later on a trip to Kaifeng, I do not counter, I do not sleep, I will serve you."

after the death of Zhao Kuangyin, Song Dynasty ascended the throne, Pacific country for three years, Wu Yue, Wang once again into the city, King did not want to let him go back, the Kingdom of Wu Yue on a complete surrender. Later, the Southern Song Dynasty moved the capital to Lin'an, Hangzhou is the fact that the territorial Wu Yue Wang. Wu Yue Wang called money (touch-tone), Hangzhou today, there are security tower, was built tower is to be able to protect him. "History of Song," recorded: "(Wu Yue Wang) and rejuvenating the country at peace for three years to March North Korea, and Vietnam ... ... into the 50,000-matter, the 50,000-hold more thing." Tribute on a 100,000-color porcelain secret, all - Su, there are trimmed with Phnom Penh, the record shows that at the time secretary-color porcelain is a very important item on the tribute.

Yue as a result of improvements in color secret of porcelain, later led to the Song Dynasty kiln production system. Began to talk about the next talk of the Song Dynasty kiln system - the five major Ming Yao.

There has been a late Tang Dynasty porcelain, Chinese porcelain to the impact of very large, colored porcelain called secret. Color secret, a secret means of color, full of mystery. In fact, the secretary-color porcelain is improved version of Yue. Today, many products are improved from generation to generation, in the history of the Yue as well keep improving. We said, first called Yue color yellow sugar, brown sugar, like a little yellow. Certainly not as good-looking yellow green, so green it slowly to the transition to the pursuit of the green. Peru color of porcelain color on a very green.

now, clearly found the secret color porcelain is Famen Temple in Shaanxi. Famen Temple of single storage article that read "secret color porcelain," the number of cases. Famen Temple because of the discovery of these things before we passed a thousand years of secret color of porcelain answer opened. No one knows the original "secret color," What is the color in the end, it is a secret color, is a Bengxiang you see color.

Famen Temple in Fufeng key to the town of Shaanxi, Li Yuan Tang Gaozu department name, the temple dedicated to Buddha's finger bone relic. Buddhist relic of this is the crown by seven letter suite, a set of one of the most inside the letter containing the relic. Famen Temple because of the sudden collapse of the towers, salvage excavation in the country, found under the tower there was a palace. From the palace to find a good buried in the middle no one harassing,一千一百一十三年buried. All the items are buried at the time, clearly written text, a total of 2499 unearthed cultural relics. The ceramic industry of China's greatest contribution is to clear the secret is what color porcelain. Famen Temple because the secret of porcelain color, a lot of folk in the past can not explain all the things solved. Famen Temple in the Tang Dynasty's Buddhist to do when a very grand, all worship, the king presided over the ceremony in person, so Limai Famen Temple is the highest level of certain things, such as a large number of gold and silver. In that case, secret color porcelain buried a total of how much? 14. Gezhuo front of a bottle of robusta, and the remaining 13 are put in a box. Miyazato to "clothing accounts," stated: "The secretary-color porcelain bowl 7, with 2 silver edge; secret color porcelain plates stack (disc)-a total of six." Clear, everything is on a On.

I like the first time porcelain met a lot of colored porcelain secret, but do not know at that time. Famen Temple is not unearthed, no one knows what is secret porcelain color. I always feel that the color of porcelain with different Yue, in accordance with the standards Yue, the green is not correct. This secret color of porcelain price also fluctuated, a lot of people do not know how it is going on. At that time, I was told that the green porcelain may be burned area of Longquan, kiln I also unknown. At that time I was not very clear, unlike now. I remember one time, there are a lot of personal use, I choose to buy a 12, while the remaining have to give up, and now would like to particularly Unfortunately, at that time they should have bought.

to the secretary-color ceramic, porcelain palace features began. Later, the "kiln" in the Song Dynasty was formed in the Song Dynasty was not the concept. The only difference is that colored porcelain secretary, began to shape the kiln. For example, the Tang Dynasty poet Xu late at night, wrote a poem, "Yu Gong Cha Mi-color light" and "Gong" is a tribute to show color porcelain is not a secret for the emperor's burning, but the emperor as tribute, with it Guan some of the characteristics of the kiln is a prelude. Poetry is so written: "Cui transition into the new Green lovely color, formation Gong Wu Jun, first served. Qiao out into the moon surface, the light thin ice Xuan Lv Yun-sheng." He described how this beautiful porcelain, as it Into the moon surface, thin ice Lv Yun-sheng, are kind words. We note, however, show that the poetry in secret color of porcelain is not the color yellow, but the green.
