Jingdezhen Porcelain - The History of Porcelain

       China is the birthplace of porcelain, and the invention of porcelain is a great contribution of the Chinese nation to world civilization. The word "porcelain" in English also means "China." Around the middle of the Shang Dynasty, which dates back to about 1600 BC, early porcelain appeared in China. Because its body and the firing process of the glaze are still rough, and the firing temperature is low, it shows primitiveness and transitional characteristics, so it is generally called "primitive porcelain." The invention of "porcelain" began in the Han Dynasty, and it became mature by the Tang and Five Dynasties; it reached its peak in the Song Dynasty, with the Ding, Ru, Guan, Ge, and Jun kilns. Famous for thousands of years; the Yuan Dynasty saw the emergence of new products such as blue and white and underglaze red; the Ming Dynasty inherited and developed the traditional Song porcelain, with the Xuan De and Cheng Hua kilns products being particularly outstanding; the Qing Dynasty had an elegant and simple style, slightly inferior to previous times, but it was superior in delicacy and splendor, with the porcelain made during the reigns of Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong being particularly outstanding and amazing.

 Porcelain evolved from pottery, and its invention was a gradual exploration based on the experience of the ancient Chinese people in the production of white pottery and printed hard-pottery. The production of porcelain requires three conditions: first, the raw materials for porcelain must be rich in minerals such as quartz and sericite; second, the firing temperature must be above 1200°C; and third, a high-temperature glaze is applied to the surface of the vessel during the firing process.

Jingdezhen Porcelain - The Prestige of Porcelain

      Porcelain, Jingdezhen, and China are one concept abroad, demonstrating the global status of Chinese porcelain. However, in modern times, compared to foreign countries, the ceramic industry has fallen behind significantly. In recent years, thanks to the efforts of ceramic artists and artists in Jingdezhen, modern art porcelain has begun to attract attention from overseas collectors. Collectors and ceramic enthusiasts have started to recognize that modern art porcelain is an undeniable new collection hotspot. The important molding process in the Jingdezhen hand-made porcelain technique was initially established in the Song Dynasty. Within the ceramic industry, the division of labor has become increasingly refined, with the widespread use of techniques such as pulling, stamping, trimming, repairing, dipping in glaze, and stirring glaze to create porcelain blanks. Then, techniques such as box-burning, cushion-burning, and support ring burning are used for firing. During the Yuan Dynasty, the "binary blending method" of adding kaolinite to porcelain stone and the blue and white underglaze painting technology were invented. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Jingdezhen porcelain industry further developed, with the saying, "It takes the combined effort of one mold to complete the product after 72 hands. Some of the fine details cannot be fully described."The system of porcelain-making skills has been essentially perfected, with each step of the process reduced to the simplest form possible. Those who work with clay focus solely on clay processing, those who pull the porcelain focus solely on the pulling, and the painters and dyers work separately, with the painters focusing on painting and the dyers on dyeing. This detailed division of labor has increased the efficiency of porcelain-making. Every aspect of the industry has skilled craftsmen with unique talents, and the Jingdezhen porcelain-making industry has reached its historical peak.
