Ceramic Color of the major components
The color of porcelain glaze and fetal or minerals contained in the closely related components, the same mineral content of the ingredients because that can change a different color. Pottery containing iron oxide usually produced the clay, because sintering temperature and different degrees of oxidation, the color is yellow, brown-red, brown, gray and other colors. Add in the clay minerals other components, can also fired into the other color, but rare. And the porcelain has always been matched with species richness and variety, are briefed as follows:
(L) Celadon: Oxfam green high-temperature glaze porcelain. Green enamel of the main color material is iron oxide, the content of 2 percent. Glaze as the number of iron oxide content, the thickness of the glaze and iron oxide reduction of the level of high and low, showing a depth of different colors of different colors. If more iron oxide in the glaze to restore ferrous oxide, then glaze on the side Green, otherwise Pianhuang, and this atmosphere of the firing. Roasting pottery firing atmosphere that the nature of the flame, the flame oxidation, reduction and Yan Yan are neutral. Full of flame burning that fuel the flames generated carbon dioxide; reduction in fuel flame is burning in the course of hypoxia, a large amount of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, hydrogen, such as carbonation of the flame; neutral flame is something in between. Use of flame firing, glaze, yellow; flame burning with the partial reduction Green. Celadon often "a film" to decorative items, the so-called open-glaze porcelain layer is the result of births, glaze expansion coefficient different and the crack. The Geyao handed down to the surface for the combined size of a film, small-profile yellow, black large profile, it is "Watkins wire," said. Southern Song Dynasty GUANYAO good application of the most open-and-child thin (Cheng Hui, black), the enamel layer rich (a powder blue, yellow fire, Qinghui, and other colors) the characteristics and utensils Kouyan down because of the glaze and Wei Lu fetal color and utensils at the end of As the pie pad foot pad and open burning tyres, I said, "I Rail Purple Foot," to peace. Yue Yao-celadon and well-known to the world, his works show a special "Yuguotianqing" color, texture Rubing Siyu, after spread to foreign countries, a Chinese porcelain masterpiece.
(2) and porcelain: Oxfam black high-temperature glaze porcelain. Glaze in the iron oxide content in more than 5 percent. Shang and Zhou when the original black porcelain, when the Eastern Han Dynasty Shangyu kiln fired porcelain glazing thickness of the black uniform, a black glaze, Heihe and several species of large number of species to the Song Dynasty Heiyou there. Jian kilns which produced the Tu Hao Wen, Wen drip, Yao changed, and so Chawan, is due to the higher volume of iron in the glaze, kiln firing a longer holding time, the reduction in the flame burning, the glaze in the large number of iron oxide crystal precipitation , Finished Liuguangyicai show that the special pattern, each one carefully looking both self faction, is rare for the precious tea.
(3) white porcelain: Oxfam transparent or opaque white high-temperature glaze porcelain. In a long-term practice, kiln master craftsman to further change the rules of the porcelain was produced in celadon on the basis of reducing the content of iron oxide in the glaze, use of flame burning, white glaze general in the pan-green or yellow, Reduction flame burning glaze Fanqing, "Green white porcelain", "Green Show" said. Tang Dynasty white porcelain production has been highly developed, the most important skills excellence of the North Xingyao, produced by the white porcelain such as silver like snow, with a time of the Southern Yue Yao famous porcelain production, the WHO said the "North-South Green."
(4) Color Youci: a single application of various colors for the high-temperature Youci collectively. The main coloring agent with iron oxide, copper oxide, oxidation and drilling. To the iron oxide as a coloring agent Qingyou, Heiyou, Seyou sauce, such as Huang You. With copper oxide as a coloring agent of the Begonia RED GLAZE, Mei Guizi glaze, red glaze, Shek RED GLAZE, RED GLAZE, cowpea RED GLAZE, are reducing flame burning, burning flame if oxide, a green glaze. To cobalt oxide for the coloring agent of porcelain, fired after the deep blue mixed. In addition, the yellow-green crystalline glaze is also an iron color Youci, commonly known as "tea at the end."
(5) Caici: You Xia Cai Cai Glazed porcelain and collectively. You Xia Cai is the first porcelain in the blanks on the pigment used for decoration, Zaishi green, yellow or colorless, transparent glaze, fired from the heat. Glazed pottery is the color of porcelain in the firing on all kinds of pigment used mapping patterns, and then from the low-temperature baking.
(6) blue and white: You Xia Cai one of the species, also known as "white glaze blue and white." In the green and white on the use of cobalt oxide pigment绘成logo pattern, Oxfam, transparent glaze, firing at high temperature. In the firing, the use of flame when the dark blue and white color, with reduction flame is bright blue and white color.
(7) You Lihong: You Xia Cai one of the species. The porcelain on the green with copper oxide with the pigment to draw logo pattern, and then Oxfam transparent glaze, the reduction produced from high-temperature flame.
(8) Choi Doo: You Xia Glazed blue and white and color combination of varieties, also known as the "amuse color." First in the blue and white porcelain used on the green pigment drawn hook pattern as the contour, who used high-temperature firing a transparent glaze, and then as the contour in the red, yellow, green, purple and other colors painted filled by low-temperature Baking from. In addition to filling color, there are points Choi, and Choi, with several types of color.
(9) multicolored: Glazed varieties of color, also known as the "hard color." In the white porcelain has been fired, with red, green, yellow and purple color paints, and other logo pattern, from the low-temperature baking.
(10) Fencai: Glazed varieties of color, also known as "soft color." In the firing of porcelain on the use of arsenic with the "white glass" primer, then paint color rendering all kinds of painting, from the low-temperature baking.
(11) Fa Langcai: Glazed varieties of color, also known as "Citai painted enamel," top firing on the white porcelain, and enamel paint materials. Enamel compound of the main components of borate and silicate, with the different metal oxides, with low humidity after baking a variety of colors, mostly yellow, green, red, blue, purple and other colors for the end, then Painting all kinds of flowers, birds, landscapes and Zhu Dan, such as design, decoration is a sense of uplift.
