Cloisonne, cloisonne
One of China's characteristic arts and crafts, it is made of red copper, which is made by kneading copper wires into various patterns, welding them on copper tires, filling them with enamel glaze and then firing them. During the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, Beijing produced a large number of enamels, most of which were blue, so it was called cloisonne.
Cloisonne, as an artistic handicraft, is made by drawing patterns on the surface of bronze ware with enamel of various colors, embedding copper wires or gold and silver wires around the patterns, and then firing at high temperature. This craft began in Jingtai in the Ming Dynasty, and it was only blue at first, so it was called cloisonne. Although there are various colors now, they still use their previous names. Because cloisonne has become the name of a craft, not a color, it is said that cloisonne is the son of Xuande and attaches great importance to the casting and smelting of bronzes and copper. Jingtai was deeply involved in it when he was young, but in casting, Xuande had reached the extreme and could not make a breakthrough, so he tried to find another way to win by surprise. Finally, cloisonne was created. Because the color planning in advance is extremely painstaking, after success, they also like it very much. The old ornaments of the royal family are all made of cloisonne, and there are countless porcelain materials. During the Chenghua period, they inherited the legacy and did not change it. Therefore, cloisonne artifacts are the most common in Jingtai and Chenghua periods. Later, it experienced Hongzhi, Zhengde, Jiajing, Qin Long and other dynasties. Although they were still fired, they all followed the rules and told false stories, which were not as good as Jingtai and Chenghua years in quality. After Wanli, although it was occasionally popular, it didn't regard setting up an official factory as a routine business as before, so there were few products in the future. It failed to revive in the late Ming Dynasty. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it was fired again, with many categories and good results. Although it can't be compared with Jingtai and Chenghua periods, it is not inferior to the products produced after Zheng Hong. Although there are cultural relics from Kang Yong today, they are no different from those made by Qianlong. In fact, it was made in Qianlong, with the year of Kang Yong engraved on it, but it was not made in Kang Yong.
Generally speaking, the copper of cloisonne tires in Ming dynasty is better, mostly copper tires, and the tire body is slightly heavier, so the shape is antique. The main color glaze used to imitate bronze is natural mineral materials with deep and bright colors, such as ruby red and turquoise green. At this time, the silk is thicker and the gilded part is thicker. Most colored glazes have sand holes. There are "Daming Jingtai Year System" or "Jingtai Year System", with both bottom payment and side payment.
Cloisonne craft in Qing dynasty is better than that in Ming dynasty. The tire is thin, the thread is thin, the glass is brighter than that of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no sand hole. The patterns are complex and diverse, but not as vivid as the ornaments of the Ming Dynasty. The gilded part is thin gold, but the gold is beautiful.
During the Republic of China, the overall level of cloisonne was not as good as that of the previous generation, with thin carcass, bright colors and rough workmanship. At this time, there were only "Shenyi" and "Dexingcheng", and the cloisonne made was fine in workmanship and good in quality. Many antique bronzes are imitations, or imitations of fine works and models of Qianlong period are carved. At present, cloisonne has many furnishings and is not practical.
Nowadays, the craft of cloisonne has been greatly improved, and various shapes and patterns have become the best gifts for us to communicate with international friends and relatives.
Cloisonne is a unique handicraft that combines porcelain and copper. To make cloisonne, firstly, we should use copper as a tire, then craftsmen draw pictures on it, then paste patterns on the copper tire with copper wires according to the pictures, and then embed enamel glazes of different colors in the patterns. Finally, it is made by repeated sintering, polishing and gold plating. Cloisonne is not only made of bronze and porcelain, but also integrated with traditional hand-painted and carved techniques, which is a master of China's traditional techniques.
