Pastel porcelain, also known as soft color, is a kind of glaze decoration on porcelain. There is a saying that the development of pastel porcelain "begins in Kangxi, excels in Yongzheng, and flourishes in Qianlong". Pastel porcelain is a kind of porcelain with pastel as the main decoration method. It is named after the lead powder in the color material. First, pastel needs to be kiln twice to be successfully produced. First, it is fired at a high temperature above 1300 degrees. Then the outline of the pattern is drawn on the white body porcelain that comes out of the kiln, and after filling the coloring material, it is baked at a high temperature of more than 700 degrees Celsius for the second time, and the work is considered complete. The painting of pastel porcelain is exquisite, the color is soft and has a sense of relief, which makes the picture full of strong national characteristics. ◤Characteristics of pastel porcelain The most notable feature of famille rose porcelain is that it is rich in layering and combined with the elegance and softness of traditional Chinese poetry, calligraphy, painting and seals, it produces a unique beauty of porcelain. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52693404492_ea22280175_z.jpg ◤Characteristics of holding pot: The inside and outside of this hexagonal pot are glazed, and the water flows out smoothly from the outlet hole. There are two nail patches on the upper round cover, four nail patches on the edge of the pot, and three nail patches somewhere on the body of the pot. What is "鋦"? It is explained in "Ci Hai" as "鋦子, a kind of nail with curved ends, used to repair objects with cracks." Why is there nailing? In the early days, if the ceramics with collection value were damaged or cracked, the ancients would ask porcelain craftsmen to drill holes in the ceramics with dancing drills or bow drills, and put them on the tiles. Install nails one by one between the cracks. From the current point of view, it seems that staples are embedded on the surface of porcelain, and the raw material of these nails is mixed with gold. This kind of ancient Chinese repair technique "Porcelain mending with nails" makes old objects reborn in another attitude, with an extraordinary artistic conception. There is a Taiwanese proverb: "Purple a dish to mend one's heart." In the early days, due to the lack of supplies, porcelain was mostly considered practical, but now it seems that it also has the function of spiritual healing. Like the dowry left by her natal family, family heirlooms passed down through generations...etc. What is repaired is not only the external defect of the vessel, but also the warm memory full of heart. ◤Material: Porcelain ◤Size: bottom diameter about 7.5 cm; height about 9.5 cm ◤Total weight: about 290 g ◤Origin: China ◤Price: $ 18,000 ◤Quantity: This is the only one, a century-old collection, worthy of favorite collection by Chinese famille rose porcelain lovers The maintenance method of porcelain is as follows: 1. Wash by hand when cleaning, because the porcelain body glaze is delicate and easily scratched. Remember not to use rough cloth to clean, so as not to scratch the porcelain surface. 2. Wash the porcelain with water, the water temperature should not exceed 70 degrees, and do not soak the porcelain in hot water for too long, so as not to affect the external appearance of the porcelain. 3. After the porcelain is cleaned, let it dry naturally, or wipe it with a soft cloth, and do not put it in a drying equipment such as a high-temperature disinfection cupboard. 4. If there are stains on the porcelain, it is best to wash them off immediately, and don't let the stains stay on the porcelain for a long time. If the porcelain is stained with tea or coffee stains, use lemon juice or vinegar to clean it. 5. When cleaning porcelain in winter, it is necessary to control the water temperature to prevent the porcelain from bursting due to freezing or hot water. It is best to use wooden basins or plastic basins to clean porcelain. Avoid using porcelain basins and Cement basins to avoid damage to the porcelain. ※Ancient pieces more than ten years old are brand new and unused.
