I Can Extract Abilities From Antiques

57. Complete Secret-Color Porcelain Firing Process

Early in the morning, 2:30.

Hu Muzhi lay on the bed with his eyes open, looking at the ceiling.

At this point, it is not because he is not sleepy, but because there are only 20 minutes left in the countdown of the secret color porcelain of the five-petal sunflower mouth ring.

Time passed by minute by minute.

With that number completely zero.

[Ding, the ability to extract the secret-colored porcelain of the five-petal Kuikou ring foot was successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining the secret-colored porcelain firing process. 】

As the system's voice fell, Hu Muzhi's mind kept pouring into the craftsmanship of secret-color porcelain firing.

You must know that the main reason why secret-colored porcelain has been elevated to a mysterious position is that it is technically extremely difficult.

In addition to the glaze formula, different heats and atmospheres can make the glaze color very different.

In order to make the glaze green and uniform, and to burn the same glaze stably, that difficult technique has long been lost.

But now Hu Muzhi already knows that the key to the production of secret-color porcelain is to create a reducing atmosphere in the kiln. In this atmosphere, the iron oxide in the glaze is reduced, and the glaze color is purer cyan. On the contrary, the iron element in the glaze is still in an oxidized state, and the glaze color is yellowish in the blue, so it is still ordinary celadon.

Not only that, the firing process of the secret-colored porcelain is very particular, and a special saggar, that is, a porcelain saggar, is required.

When firing utensils with this kind of saggar, the saggar must be sealed, and the saggar and the lid of the saggar are sealed with glaze.

When using this kind of porcelain saggar to make secret-colored porcelain, it ensures the strong reducing flame state in the saggar, and the oxygen outside cannot enter, which prevents secondary oxidation during cooling.

Fired in a strong reducing flame atmosphere, the glaze color is restored well, so the color is relatively green. The products fired by this special process are the real secret-color porcelain.

In addition to these, the clay, glaze, and temperature requirements in the kiln during firing are explained in detail.

If it is said that a hundred steps to penetrate Yang, the ingenuity and ingenuity, Wang Xizhi's cursive brushwork is an improvement of Hu Muzhi's ability, then this secret-color porcelain firing process allows Hu Muzhi to open up the knowledge of the method that has disappeared for thousands of years.

Hu Muzhi can't imagine what kind of sensation it will cause in the antique ceramics world if this firing method is made public.

the next day.

Liulichang Guxuan Pavilion.

A relaxing day begins again.

When chatting with Xia Heze, the other party suddenly mentioned Zhang Jun.

"Muzhi, did you know? That Zhang Jun came directly to my house to find my sister yesterday." Xia Heze said.

Even if Xia Heze didn't mention it, just mentioning it reminded Hu Muzhi of the day Zhang Jun let him take the blame.

But Hu Muzhi was certain that Zhang Jun didn't see anything that day.

The reason why it is so certain is that Hu Muzhi only saw a beautiful back later.

Anyway, it's free time. It's not bad to listen to Xia Heze's storytelling. Hu Muzhi asked, "Then what?"

"Then he was blasted away by my sister. Before she left, my sister told him clearly that it was impossible for two people, and asked him not to come next time." Xia Heze said.

"Your sister's way of rejecting people is really straightforward." Hu Muzhi smiled lightly.

"That's not true, but before leaving, I don't think that Zhang Jun has given up." Xia Heze said.

Just as the two were chatting, a middle-aged man with a national character face and a somewhat dignified appearance walked into the store.

"Mr. Wang."

When Hu Muzhi saw the person coming, he got up and shouted.

The person who came was Wang Degui, who helped restore the backgammon board by Hu Muzhi.

"Muzhi, Heze." Wang Degui greeted the two with a smile, and placed a brocade box in his hand on the coffee table.

"Mr. Wang, I remember, you seem to have bought a backgammon in our store, right?" Xia Heze said half-jokingly, meaning you won't return it today, right?

"You kid..." Wang Degui laughed: "I came here today mainly to ask Muzhi for help."

"Help? Is there something to fix?" Hu Muzhi asked.

Wang Degui nodded, and opened the brocade box on the table.

I saw a blue and white porcelain inside.

The bottle has a garlic mouth, a neck, and a round flat belly. Symmetrical ruyi ears are attached to the mouth and shoulders, a breast nail pattern is raised in the middle of both sides of the abdomen, and the feet are in the shape of a wall.

Ruyi pattern is painted on the edge of the bottle, and the belly is decorated with six-pointed star consecrated light extending around to form a hexagonal brocade-style consecration. Plum pattern for a week.

At a glance, Hu Muzhi has a judgment on this blue and white: blue and white flower brocade double-eared flat vase.

"Blue and white porcelain, it looks good," Xia Heze said.

"Can you tell what age it is?" Wang Degui asked with a smile.

"Well..." Xia Heze watched it for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason. In the end, in order not to be embarrassed, he said truthfully: "I can't see it."

"Yongle blue and white." Hu Muzhi said slowly.

Yongle blue-and-white porcelain was among the top three blue-and-white porcelains in the Ming Dynasty.

The quality of Yongle blue and white porcelain is better than that of Chenghua blue and white porcelain. The porcelain body is finely washed and has less impurities. Although Emperor Yongle reigned for 21 years, the quantity of Yongle blue and white porcelain was far less than that of Xuande blue and white porcelain.

This is inseparable from the fact that Emperor Yongle's emphasis on politics and compassion for the people's livelihood has reduced the situation of laboring the people and hurting the money.

Yongle blue and white has a particularly remarkable feature, that is, blue and white porcelain basically uses Su Ma Li Qing.

This is the imported material brought back by Zheng He's voyages to the West.

Su Ma Liqing has three characteristics. First, the color will fade when fired; second, the iron content of su material is too high, which will cause rust spots; Uneven feeling.

Hu Muzhi judged that this is Yongle blue and white through the first two characteristics.

"Great." Wang Degui gave Hu Muzhi a thumbs up.

Before Hu Muzhi spoke, Xia Heze said proudly, "That's right, don't look at whose master?"

"Oh? Do you worship Muzhi as your teacher?" Wang Degui asked curiously.

"I think so too." Xia Heze smiled bitterly, "It's just that Muzhi refused to accept me."

"But in my heart, I have already decided that Muzhi is my master."

"So it is." Wang Degui showed a stunned expression.

"Mr. Wang, from the front, there seems to be no problem with this blue and white." Hu Muzhi said.

"Because the problem is on this back." Wang Degui said, and took out the blue and white porcelain from the brocade box.

It turned out that on the back of the blue-and-white porcelain, there is an obvious trace of bonding, and it is not made by professionals.

"Muzhi, I'm here today because I want you to help me ask your friend who repaired it to see if this thing can be repaired better?" Wang Degui said.

ps: Today's 5th watch, but there's something going on at night, the next watch will be a little later, sorry, sorry.
