Zibo Ceramic Culture with Unique Mature Characteristics

China is an ancient country, and China has many cultures with a long history, which are the crystallization of human wisdom. Zibo has a long history of ceramic culture. In the long history, Zibo's ceramic skills have advanced by leaps and bounds, and people's continuous progress has made the ceramic culture more exquisite. The following Shandong culture brings you the unique and mature ceramic culture of Zibo, Shandong. Let's study together.

Zibo ceramics has a long history, and has made great progress in the production of fine arts ceramics, both in modeling and decoration. The eggshell pottery they produced at the end of Neolithic Age, and the "raindrop glaze" and "MC Davi glaze" produced in Song Dynasty are still regarded as treasures by all countries.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Zibo fine arts ceramics constantly innovated on the basis of China traditional ceramic art, and gradually formed a unique style with simple modeling, novel decoration and gorgeous colors. In the research of glaze color, we have made remarkable achievements, not only restoring the long-lost raindrop glaze, MC Davi glaze and Xia Yun glaze, but also creating new red gold crystal glaze, chicken blood red glaze, Venus glaze and dozens of black glaze.

Precious raindrop porcelain, also known as oil drop porcelain, is evenly covered with silver dots on the black glaze. The dot is as small as a grain of rice. When tea is served, they shine, and when wine is served, they are silver and dazzling. There was a saying that "a bottle the size of a ruler and a jar the size of an inch are regarded as supreme products, and a cup of tea and wine is a treasure on earth". Raindrop glaze is called "Tianmu glaze" in Japan. This porcelain tea set is an unparalleled top grade in Japanese tea ceremony.

Another precious glaze, tea powder glaze, is a matt glaze containing crystalline minerals. The ancients praised: "Tea powder is yellow and miscellaneous green, delicate but not vulgar, gorgeous in flowers, beautiful as jade, the most eye-catching." All kinds of stationery, bottles and cans made of this glaze are pure in glaze color, simple and elegant.

In painted pottery painting, there has been an original development in recent years, which has solved the problem that Wujin glazed pottery and painted pottery can not be matched since ancient times, especially the method of whitewashing painting, which has opened up a new realm for ceramic decoration. Among them, Li Fen painted pottery hanging plate is the most prominent. It is painted with black gold glaze on the ceramic body, with artistic glaze as pigment, and combined with traditional Chinese painting through woodcut. When depicting the most vivid details, use special tools to apply powder, thus enhancing the three-dimensional sense of the picture; After firing "kiln transformation", various colored glazes show unexpected magnificent and colorful artistic effects due to mutual infiltration, overlapping and diffusion.

Zhu Yigui, a famous craftsman, drew a bamboo chicken hanging plate with a diameter of 50 cm. When Comrade Deng visited the United States, it was presented as a "national gift" to the US Senate and House of Representatives. Their flower cat 6-inch hanging plate won the second prize of 1980 national ceramic new product. They also used this painting technique to produce ceramic murals such as Song of Hundred Birds, Song of Spring and Peacock Girl, which are rich in color and unique in style, and are well received by the art world.
