Yongle and Xuande Blue and White Porcelain Identification in Ming Dynasty

Yongle and Xuande blue and white porcelain are proud artists in blue and white porcelain, and have always been praised by the world. The main reason is the vigorous style of painting, which reflects the strong beauty of Chinese traditional paintings. Works that represent their artistic level are still official kiln products. In the Yongle and Xuande eras for more than 30 years, the artistic style of the blue and white paintings was generally the same, but there were slight differences in the shapes, patterns, and crafts. It was only nearly 30 years since the two were distinguished.

There is only one type of Yongle blue and white belt, namely the pressure cup. There are only three complete pieces of this cup in the world, and another one is broken, all hidden in the Palace Museum. Ming Gu Ying Tai's "Natural History" has three kinds of patterns: the double lion style, the halberd style, and the sunflower style, which are now handed down three times. The double lions and the sunflowers are all in the cup "Heilongjiang" system. Handball cups are Yongle blue and white flowers, and later generations are imitations. Ming Wanli and Qing Emperor Kangxi and Guangxu all had imitations, but the imitations were not shaped in the correct way. The size was larger than the original, the carcass was heavy, and the style was also rough. As long as you have seen the real thing, you will know it as a fake. In the early 80s, the National Palace Museum once brought genuine products to Jingdezhen to copy hundreds of pieces. Among them, there are dozens of fine craftsmanship. The shape, ornamentation, and blue-and-white hues are absolutely unique. They are the most successful ancient blue and white crystals. However, at the time, only a kind of sunflower kernel was imitated. Therefore, when you see this type of knowledge, you must be vigilant.

Xuande blue and white has a lot of money, paragraphs are mostly regular script, very few also have a cover book, the book section is not fixed. It is written in the bottom of the device, but also in the body. Although the font is not the same, but the overall style is more consistent. The "German" characters of the Chinese character are all one less in the "mind". This is a point to pay attention to during the appraisal. In addition, there is also no name, and the use of the blue-and-white script "Da-de-Jung-ji" or the seal "altar" is also produced by the official kiln. Mr. Sun Yizhou accumulated his life experience and summed up Xuande's knowledge and wrote songs: “Xuande’s years are full of bodies, and the seals are printed with dark and gloomy shades. Four pairs of single flowers are planted horizontally and horizontally, and the Jin Tang Xiaoyan is the most out of the group.” Mr. Sun’s experience comes from careful attention. Observe and earnestly summarize. If we want to learn how to identify the key points of their knowledge, the best way is to look at a few pieces of real material knowledge, memorize its calligraphy style, so that self will be integrated. The most recent imitation of Xuande's money has never been interrupted, but it has the characteristics of the present and is not the same as the real thing.

Yongle and Xuande blue and white styling mainly include pots, plates, bowls, cups, etc. The influence of West Asia is very obvious.

There are kettle pots, three-line bamboo pots, pot pots, etc. The jug spring bottle is used for the kettle body, and the two sides are each equipped with a first-class handle, and a flower-shaped thin piece is arranged between the flow and the neck of the kettle to support and fix the shape. It is designed to avoid deformation during the molding process. Another type of pot is a long-necked, cylindrical body with a cloud-shaped flow attached to the upper end of the neck. The mouth of the mouth is a gourd shape, and the handle is shaped like a crank. The three-line bamboo pot is only stored in the Beijing Palace Museum. The gongs and pots of the Yuan Dynasty had begun. Yongxuan continued to produce. Because its top was similar to a bonnet, it was named as a bonnet pot.

Bottles have a variety of shapes, including plum bottles, spring bottles of jade pots, double-lined flat bottles, and celestial bottles. Mei bottles are thin at the bottom of the Song and Yuan dynasties, and are equipped with seats. When the Ming Dynasty was not equipped with seats, the bottom end was widened to maintain the bottle's stability. Yuhu spring bottle in the Song and Yuan Dynasties bottle body thin, the Ming Dynasty was full of abundance. Double-lined flat bottles have flowers and grass as well as figures. The celestial bottle is a popular shape of Ming Yongxuan. It has a straight neck and a round body shape. The decoration is mostly a seawater dragon pattern. There are two kinds of blue dragons and blue and white lands.

In addition to the usual daily utensils, the dish is most representative of large plates with a diameter of between 30 cm and 40 cm. There are two kinds of round mouth and Linghuakou along the market. Different from the Yuan Dynasty, its picture is very simple. For example, Xuande's blue and white flowers and ribbons are hidden in the Palace Museum and are typical outstanding works of Xuande. The center of the plate painted three layers of patterns, the edge painted curly patterns, patterns painted a layer of folded branches and patterns, the center painted ribbon patterns, the layout is very sparse, the picture is simple, it is estimated that the drawings from the painting hall.

Bowls are the most common bowls with wide mouth and thick tires.
