China has a long history, many cultural kui treasures have been born, and many Chinese cultures have had a profound impact on the world, such as silk, porcelain, Chinese kung fu and so on. In English, "porcelain" and "China" are the same word, that is, "china", which shows the influence of Chinese porcelain.
The Ming Dynasty scholar Chen Fengming once wrote a poem "He Nian Bi Like Lingyan Qi", which praised the beauty of porcelain.
In China, the word "porcelain" was first seen in the Shuowen Jiezi, but the original porcelain had already appeared in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and the word "porcelain" referred to "pottery" before the Han Dynasty. Early porcelain was dominated by celadon porcelain, and there was a great breakthrough in the development of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and blue-glazed porcelain appeared.
Sui and Tang Dynasties produced carved flowers, strokes, flowers, through-carving and other porcelain pattern decoration skills, the five generations of porcelain production technology is particularly superb, the North Porcelain System of Henan Wood Kiln even has the reputation of "tiles worth thousands of gold", the Song Dynasty Jianyang kiln to burn black glaze (also known as Tianmu glaze) porcelain is famous.
In the Song Dynasty, the society was open, and the porcelain was also exported overseas, and the famous kilns at home and abroad were Yaozhou kiln, Cizhou kiln, Jingdezhen kiln, Longquan kiln, Yue kiln and Jianyang kiln. And the famous "porcelain capital" Jingdezhen is also named after the production of porcelain for the court during the Song Jingde period.
As we all know, Japan has a lot of contacts with our country in ancient times, learned a lot of culture in our country, according to historical records, in Japan's Kamakura period (China's Southern Song Dynasty to Yuan Dynasty period), Japanese monks to China's Zhejiang Tianmu Mountain Buddhist Temple to study, once brought back the tianmu mountain bowl, that is, "obscure heavenly eye".
During the Song Dynasty, the Obsidian Tianmu Bowl has two major characteristics, one is that there are circular spots, and the other is that the spots shine around the blue brilliance, and the flare will appear in the sunlight and a certain temperature conditions, and the Obsidian Tianmu is also the most precious variety in the Tianmu glaze.
However, it is regrettable that the Obsidian Heavenly Eye has long been lost in China, and there are currently only 4 Song Dynasty "Obsidian Heavenly Eyes" in Japan, which are now national treasure-level cultural relics.
In recent years, people's attention to cultural relics has become higher and higher, so there have also been many treasure hunting programs, and in Japan, there have also been cultural relics treasure programs, and collector Koji Hashimoto has come up with heirlooms, which are actually "Obscure Heavenly Eye" porcelain, which is immediately estimated at 25 million yuan after the identification of Japanese experts.
Because the "Obsidian Heavenly Eye" is really rare, the news of Japan's reproduction of the Obsidian Heavenly Eye has also spread to our country, which has aroused heated discussion among Netizens in China, but a Chinese aunt named Li Xinhong in our country feels more and more familiar the more she looks at it, and after staring at it for a while, she clapped her hands and smiled: "This is what I made, and I also sold 80 pieces." ”
It turned out that Li Xinhong was a porcelain craftsman, fascinated by porcelain since childhood, after graduating from primary school, he bought a copy of the "Song and Yuan Ceramics Compendium", according to the above method to start firing ceramics, 20 years later, Li Xinhong's craftsmanship of fired ceramics is also pure fire, and has accumulated a lot of experience, and the porcelain she fired is also very popular.
At that time, Li Xinhong also saw the history of "Changing Heavenly Eyes", so she imitated one, but the result was not as good as Li Xinhong's intentions, so she sold it cheaply, and did not expect that a few years later, this porcelain was actually on the Japanese treasure hunting program, and it was also regarded as a genuine product.
Later, Li Xinhong still let her son who studied in Japan explain the reason, so the Japanese side also found a lot of professional treasure experts, through advanced scientific methods, and finally determined that this is indeed a fake, but this matter also gave Li Xinhong free publicity, so her ceramics are also more and more popular, and the products are exported to Japan, South Korea, Singapore, the United States, etc.
