One of the most important features of Go kiln porcelain is that the glaze is "crispy", which is now often called "ghee light". But what kind of ghee light is, I'm afraid most people have never seen ghee. Even people who have seen it, because of the different quality and use of ghee, can not say what kind of ghee is light. This problem also exists in the identification of sheep fat jade.
The picture above is a modern imitation, glazed reflection is not "thief" and has not been chemically treated. Some people think that this is ghee light, like a slight sweat on the face. Actually, I think this is "orange peel glaze", not "crisp".
The picture above is another imitation, which is better done. Is the reflection of the glaze "crispy"? I think it's cheese light, not crisp light. But this light is still very capable of fooling people.
The imitation pictured above may be a Qing Dynasty imitation. The glazed reflection is stronger than the above two, but it can still not be said to be crisp, but it is like the water light after applying water.
The picture above I thought was crisp. At first glance, it looks as if the glaze is "crispy", and its reflection forms a scattering. This is a photo that is magnified by about 5 times. You can see that there are countless gullies the size of small nematodes on the glaze, but they are not the form of pits formed by acid-base corrosion. It is this extremely fine line groove that refracts the light to form a "crisp light".
Looking at the picture below, it is still this artifact, but the photo is magnified by 10 times. The shape of the small line groove should be visible around the light. I have a 15x magnification and look at the surface of the grooves very clearly, while other imitations do not have such trenches.
If anyone else thinks it's corroded, look at the picture below of this really corroded glazed lid box. It is a modern imitation with a glazed surface burned with quicklime. Although the glaze surface is folded, the destructive force of alkali burning can be clearly felt from the opening seam and the thin part of the convex rib glaze.
If you do not use quicklime to make old, the glaze of the imitation kiln should be like the following picture, very flat and smooth.
If the experience of this article is correct. All we need to do is prepare a magnifying glass of about 15 times. For the kiln ware on the stall, first check whether there are any small lines and grooves on the glaze surface. If not, just leave. If so, look at other aspects before making a decision. Because this article alone cannot be determined to be genuine.
