What is Ruyao?

question 1: what is a ru kiln? Ruzhou territory (now Linru, Henan), hence the name. It is one of the five famous kilns in Song Dynasty. There are two parts, one of which was selected by the government as the palace porcelain in the late Northern Song Dynasty. The glaze is moist, azure, thin, with tiny Zhi Ding marks on the bottom. In the Song Dynasty, Ru kiln was the first place to evaluate celadon, and in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Ru kiln was also the first place to evaluate the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. It took a short time to burn porcelain in this kiln, which was recorded as "rare in the near future" in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty, Deyu Factory in Jingdezhen once imitated it, and in the Yongzheng and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty, Xirao Nian, Tang Ying and other overseers imitated it in large quantities, but few people were confused. There are three sites in Linru, Yanhedian, Zhahuagou and Xiaren Village, where folk green glazed porcelain is fired. Now it is called Linru Kiln, which is a part of Ruyao. It takes a long time to burn porcelain, mainly burning green glaze, with printing and engraving decoration, mainly printing; There are many similarities between the decorative patterns and Yaozhou kiln, but the quality is inferior to Yaozhou kiln, and the history of porcelain burning is later than Yaozhou kiln, obviously influenced by this kiln, belonging to Yaozhou kiln system.

Ru Ci is one of the five famous porcelains in Song Dynasty. The most famous porcelain is Ru kiln. Craftsmen in Ruyao put precious agate into the glaze, and burned it into Ru Ci, which is as blue as the sky, with jade-like face, cicada wing pattern, rare morning star and sesame Zhi Ding glaze meeting typical characteristics.

Ruyao is located in Ruzhou City, Henan Province. After liberation, it was once called Linru County, which was called Ruzhou in ancient times. It is the first famous celadon kiln in the north. It was founded and fired in the Northern Song Dynasty. It took a short time and the number was small. The shape of the ware is simple, but the glaze is warm and soft, like suet jade in a semi-dull state, and the decorative techniques of Ding kiln and Yue kiln are intercepted to form a unique artistic style.

The late Linru Kiln was called Linru Kiln. Among them, the name "Feng Hua" was the Tang number of Song Gaozong Liu Fei, and some people said it was carved by later generations.

Ye Zhen's "Tan Zhai Bi Heng" in the Southern Song Dynasty said: "In this dynasty, Dingzhou white porcelain was hard to use, so Ruzhou was ordered to make green kiln ware, so Hebei, Tang, Deng and Yaozhou knew about it, and Ruyao was the first." It shows that Ru kiln is accepting the task of the court and burning Ru Guan kiln ware, making the technology of northern celadon the highest in the country. In the porcelain-making process, it created a fragrant gray tire, which surpassed all celadon in the south before. In the firing process, the Zhi Ding mark which was fired by the method of full-glaze burning was unique in its fineness and regularity. Ru kiln mainly relied on a small amount of iron contained in the glaze to burn it into pure azure in a reducing atmosphere, which made the cracked piece on the glaze surface of Ru kiln become a kind of decoration, resulting in unconscious defects in the firing process (due to the inconsistent expansion coefficients of tire and glaze) It can be seen from the above that Ru kiln adopted the glaze color of southern Yue kiln and absorbed the printing technology of Ding kiln, creating a special style of printing celadon. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhou Hui's Qingbo Magazine said, "Burning in Ru kiln palace is forbidden, and there is agate powder as glaze." Ru kiln products have fine soil, hard fetal bones and moist glaze color, and the glaze contains agate powder, resulting in special colors, including egg white, azure and pink. Especially, azure is the most precious, pink is the best, sky blue is precious, and it has the reputation of "the clouds break after the rain". The glazed house is as thick as a pile of fat, as jasper, and the clasp is as sweet as fragrance. The glazed trachoma reveals crab claw patterns, roe patterns and sesame flowers. Ru Ci's firing, with small Zhi Ding full of glaze.

Ru kiln is an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty, which is used by the court. It is rarely circulated in the market and among the people. In the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a document that said, "Ruyao ... can only be sold if it is returned to the imperial palace, which is especially difficult to reach". Explain that its value was extraordinary at that time. Its products, first of all, the best are of course for the royal family, and those who fail are allowed to sell in the market, so most of the products of Ruyao are used to worship the court. Mr. Li Kuchan, a famous master of Chinese painting, once said, "It is hard to say that a museum in the world is perfect without you." Since the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Ru Ci, a court official, has used utensils and treasures, which are regarded as treasures and are more expensive than Shang, Yi and Zhou Ding. There is also a widespread word of mouth among the people in Ruzhou, that is, "even if you have a wealth, it is not as good as Ru Ci".

Guanru kiln has been burned for about 2 years, and there are few handed down products, so rare things are precious. According to the current statistics, Ru kiln wares have been handed down in the following places: 2 pieces in Beijing Palace Museum, 21 pieces in Taipei Palace Museum, 8 pieces in Shanghai Museum, 7 pieces in British David Foundation, 1 piece in Tianjin Museum, half in Guangdong Provincial Museum, 1 piece in China Hong Kong collector Luo Guixiang, 4 pieces in Japan, 5 pieces in the United States, 1 piece in British private collection, and 67 and a half pieces in total.

Due to the unknown documents, few sites have been unearthed. Where is the entrance of Ruguan kiln? The mystery of Ru kiln has been puzzling researchers of ancient ceramics in China. The search for Ru kilns began in 195s, and it was not until 198s that it was discovered in Baofeng County, Henan Province ... > >

Question 2: What kind of Ru kiln is better? First of all, aesthetically, Ru kiln plays with glazed surface, and the closer it is to the texture of jade, the better its hair color will be. It should be natural, and the very pink feeling is likely to be a toner. It should have the unique orange peel texture of Ru kiln, not too dull or too bright. A good Ru kiln has a strong sense of butter and a natural orange peel texture. In terms of workmanship, it is best to do it by hand. If it can be done by semi-hand, it is also possible, with a regular atmosphere, fluency and charm. Then you can refer to the reputation. Shiqiao is very good. Needless to say, Tianyu Kiln and Xiaofang Kiln, personally, I feel that the glaze of the Pushi style in the wood kiln of Ruyao is very good, and it looks like jade.

Question 3: What brand of Ruyao tea set is good? I have seen many brands of Ru kiln, and every Ru kiln with different brands and different prices is a different consumer, just like the rich buy sports cars and watches, while ordinary people buy ordinary cars and ordinary brand clothes. Both of them are consumers, but their consumption views are different. Among ordinary people, many of them buy famous cars, but they are all very low-key. This is the problem of values. Similarly, some people buy Xiaofang, an expensive Ru kiln. Xiaofang's imitation of Ru kiln is in place, but it is still imitation after all, and there is no such artistic conception as burning kiln in the ancients. Compared with ordinary people, if you want him to buy this kind of Xiaofang Ru kiln, a cup will cost thousands and tens of thousands, so they will feel unworthy. Of course, I believe that many collectors in China are willing to spend this money. In fact, what I want to say is not to deliberately pursue brands when buying Ru kilns. Most brands are artificially hyped. Most of us ordinary people just want to play in Ruyao. So why not give up and choose the Ru kiln that is more cost-effective? I have observed that most of the markets imitate you, and I think that Ju Baolong and Bai Cai want to be closest to Xiaofang. The price is indeed one-tenth that of Xiaofang. Let me talk about Ju Baolong and Bai Caiba.

Ju Baolong Ru Kiln

The starting point is lower than that of Bai Cai, and there are no famous people who founded it. However, the team behind Ju Baolong's scenes is also an excellent ceramic artist in Taiwan Province. Based on their love for Ru Kiln, their quality and appearance features are recognized by domestic customers. Thus, the Ru kiln technology has almost reached the top in China. A person can't give up his original appearance and pursue fame and fortune because he is famous. Jubaolong Ru Kiln is based on a love for Ru Kiln, and only then can the most beautiful Ru Kiln reappear in front of the world. Maybe some people haven't heard of Jubaolong Ru Kiln, but you can play with it carefully in your hand. Jubaolong Ru Kiln has a delicate glaze, crystal clear and moist glaze, thick as a pile of fat, and its color is refreshing and pleasing to the eye. It will show different colors under different lights, and it will be as gentle as jade when held in your hand. Like the classic Song Dynasty Ru Kiln, it is made of matt glaze.

I hope you haven't touched what you have seen with your own hands, and don't listen to the one-sided hype on the Internet. Only when you have really used it can you evaluate a commodity with your heart. Ju Baolong Ru Kiln is struggling for ordinary people to see Ru Kiln handed down from ancient times. The price of Ju Baolong Ru Kiln is cheaper than that of Bai Cai, because it was sold to our customers closest to the cost price in the early stage for development. It can't be said that its quality is defective or rubbish. I have seen a lot of people saying that other people's brands are rubbish. Do you really play with the goods with your heart?

Bai Cai Ru Kiln

It is well known that the originator of Bai Cai Ru Kiln is He Baihui. In recent years, the technology of Ru Kiln has been researched and developed, and the modeling technology has been recognized by the majority of customers, which also makes Bai Cai brand known to most people in China. However, in recent years, the quality of products entering the market is only average. Bai Cai Ru Kiln is really good, but He Baihui is just a ceramic artist. He just makes his own products for everyone to enjoy. The Bai Cai Ru Kiln in the domestic market is produced by OEM, so it is difficult for us to see the first-class Bai Cai Ru Kiln. Like Jubaolong Ru Kiln, Baicai Ru Kiln adopts matt glaze, and all Ru kilns in history have matt glaze.

I would also like to say that many Ru kilns on the market are made of chemical glaze, and they are all imitations of ancient Ru kilns. I won't talk about the brand here, and everyone who has been playing Ru kilns for a long time knows it. Chemical glaze Sichuan is harmful to drinking tea because agate powder is mixed in clay and other chemical minerals are mixed to moisten glaze color. However, before the works of Zhenru Kiln are used, their appearance is sub-smooth, and the ice crack fine lines are almost invisible. Only after being used slowly will the ice crack fine lines appear, and the first-class Ru Kiln will continue to open for ten years.

Question 4: Which brand of Ruyao tea set is good? Do you know how much this friend has budgeted? To put it simply, you can look at the host and Henglian's batch production lines, which are very disciplined. If you are higher, you can look at two brands, Bai Cai and Zhan Ding. The glaze color is very good. At the high end, there are handmade works by Xu Dejia or Wu Yuanzhong's studio, which are unique. Then there are the things of Lao Henglian, which are less on the market. The tires are very thin and the strong light can be bright. The high-end Xiaofang kiln is worth collecting, and its color is warm and moist. In addition, there are some personal works by famous Taiwan Province artists, and I hope they can help you.

Question 5: What is the glaze material of modern Ru kilns? Search on Sanwei Porcelain Pavilion on Taobao, and you may find the answer you want, so you won't remember the website.

Question 6: How do you raise Ru kilns? What do you mean by opening the glaze? Opening the glaze is a natural cracking phenomenon of porcelain. There are two reasons for cracking: first, the mud extends in a certain direction during molding, which affects the arrangement of molecules; Second, the expansion coefficients of green body and glaze are different, and the shrinkage rate of glaze layer is large when it is cooled after baking. Therefore, cracking was originally a shortcoming in porcelain firing; However, the open glaze (i.e. crack glaze) made by people who have mastered the law of cracking has become a special decoration for porcelain. This product was found in Ru, Guan and Ge kilns in Song Dynasty. Geyao products in Song Dynasty are the most famous. Open slices, also known as ice cracks, are divided into eel blood, gold wire, light yellow roe patterns according to color, net patterns, plum patterns, fine lines and so on according to shape. At present, the market is generally based on the opening of large pieces. The products of Jubaolong Ruyao can control the size and shape of cracks, and the technology is better. The cup can be opened in large pieces and small pieces, and the teapot can be opened in large pieces. Second, you can search the information of Jubaolong Ruyao to see the cultivation of Ru Ci. 1. Wash the inside and outside of Ru Ci when playing, so as to avoid oil pollution from contacting Ru Ci; 2. When in use, you can moisten the surface of Ru Ci with tea juice with a pot pen, and appreciate the gradual formation and change of cicada wing lines on the surface of Ru Ci. After long-term use, the lines are more ancient; 3, after use, the tea residue should be cleaned, that is, washed with water to dry; 4, when not in use, can be placed in a dry, clean room.

Question 7: What is the difference between Ge Kiln and Ru Kiln? The celadon Lanting is uncomfortable. It feels a little rough. The color of the host is quite beautiful, but it is said that it only looks like a Ru kiln. View the original post > >

Question 8: What kind of tea leaves are used for tea sets in Ruyao? It's doomed to be small or large when you choose a cup. It has nothing to do with tea.

Question 9: What's the difference between Ruyao and Ru Ci, and its characteristics? The porcelain fired in Ruyao is called Ru Ci. Ru Ci, a modern tea set, only continued the craft, and was not fired in Ruyao.

Question 1: What is Ru Kiln? What is it made of? Is it expensive? Ru Kiln is the first of the five famous in Song Dynasty. The kiln site is today Qingliang Temple in Baofeng County, Henan Province. Because the firing time is extremely short, it is more than 2 years. Nowadays, the amount of surviving is quite rare. According to relevant statistics, the world can determine about 6 genuine Ru kilns. The whole world! It can be seen how many. There is nothing strange about the porcelain tires in Ruyao. They are made of porcelain clay. After firing, the tire becomes: fragrant gray, hard and thin, and the fetal bone is thin. The glaze of Ru kiln is very mysterious. Zhou Hui, a Southern Song Dynasty man, said in Qingbo Magazine: "Burning is forbidden in Ru kiln palace, and agate is used as glaze". It can be seen that it is unusual. The authentic color of glaze is sky blue, with blue in the green. The glaze color is very moist. Some glazes have very fine slices. Ru Kiln is burned by Zhi Ding, with traces of Zhi Ding at the bottom. Zhi Ding is small, with traces as small as sesame, and its branches are irregular. Let's talk about it briefly, for your reference!
