What is the difference between modern celadon and ancient celadon?

The difference between modern celadon and ancient celadon is mainly manifested in the following aspects:

1, raw material difference. There are two kinds of ancient formula porcelain clay: purple clay for black tires, which generally contains 3 ~ 5% iron, up to 15%, and is used for firing objects with deep glaze; The white tire is made of broken porcelain stone, similar to Jingdezhen porcelain clay. Modern porcelain clay is antique, but the raw materials are not as exquisite as ancient times;

2, the difference of kiln. The ancient kiln site is Chai Kiln, and now it is a cultural relic protection unit. Modern celadon uses electric furnace and gas kiln to burn paper, and the firepower is different.

3. Different shapes and decorations. The ancient glaze color is represented by pink and plum, and the decorative pattern is decorated with plastic piles and decals, with exquisite workmanship. Many modern glazes are made by molds, but their exquisiteness is not up to the ancient standards.

To sum up, the achievements of ancient celadon can not be separated from the "ingenuity" of craftsmen at that time, and modern imitation can not reach the level of materials, technology and labor input at that time. (Of course, there are a few people who deliberately restore the high imitation of ancient crafts, but after all, it is not the mainstream. )
