Yue kiln porcelain Yue kiln porcelain appraisal

The reason why the Yue kiln porcelain is famous in the world, because she is not only good glaze like jade, like ice, and the shape of the superb and exquisite, exquisite sculpture, many objects of a thousand ceramics, loved by people at home and abroad and treasured. Yue kiln research, it can be said, from the shallow level and gradually to the depth of the depth, breadth expansion. Appraisal level, also from the surface and inside, from the general point of view of antiques, and gradually to the archaeological typology research, the porcelain for the science of the total trial.

The identification of porcelain is a science, is one of the components of ancient artifacts. In the archaeological excavations of ancient tombs, ancient sites, ancient kiln sites unearthed a lot of porcelain products of various kilns, there are relative age and absolute age of the artifacts, these artifacts for us to identify the standard ware. According to archaeological excavations and scattered cultural relics in the porcelain products, in the identification of the artifacts, to master the shape, pattern, glaze, firing process and paragraph inscription of the five main points. These five main points should be combined with each other organically. And after the 1950s, a more systematic scientific and technological research of ancient ceramics gradually launched. Similar to the mid-1950s, the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Metallurgy and Ceramics was established within the Chinese ancient ceramics research group, that is, the Chinese Academy of Sciences Shanghai Institute of Silicate. From the 1980s or so, scientific and technological testing methods formally involved in the identification of ancient ceramics. The Palace Museum of ancient artifacts, research librarian, the National Heritage Identification Committee member Feng Xiaoqi specializing in ancient ceramics, she told reporters that there are many ancient ceramics on the technical identification, including measurement of composition, measurement of age.

"Technical identification of ancient ceramics identification has a certain help", Feng Xiaoqi pointed out that the Palace Museum in 2005 when the pottery research center was established to purchase a number of instruments, in the past two years began to apply to the identification of ancient ceramics. Started the year before last, as part of the Song dynasty official kiln porcelain research project, they use non-destructive testing instruments to complete the analysis of more than 50 pieces of ceramic artifacts test work, "which is still playing a role in the Palace official kiln research to help, the use of instrumentation, we found that part of the official kiln composition belongs to Henan. Has been considered by the academic community is the Southern Song dynasty official kilns, but close to Henan should be the Northern Song dynasty in the north of the production". The traditional empirical appraisal by experts is based more on personal experience and experience. Appraisers are in the establishment of the standard ware system in the case of comparison identification. Appraisers long-term contact with a large number of ancient ceramics standard ware, in the brain to establish a database encompassing ancient ceramics of different kilns in various eras of the nature of the law. As a result, the appraisal of the appraisal time, contact with the "standard ware" of the number of identification of the key.

And technical appraisal also need to continue the accumulation of combat, the establishment of the database. "Due to the late start of China's technology appraisal, database accumulation is not much, so there are also deficiencies. In contrast, Oxford University testing due to the early start, the database has accumulated more, relatively more credibility," Feng Xiaoqi told reporters, in the two identification methods have deficiencies, the most reliable is the combined use of the two identification methods.
