Brief introduction of Fengxi porcelain firing technology:
Applicant: Fengxi District, Chaozhou City, Guangdong Province
Since the Neolithic age more than 8000 years ago, porcelain has appeared in Chaozhou, Guangdong Province. After the Song Dynasty, Fengxi in Chaozhou became the center of ceramic production, which has continued to this day.
The firing techniques of Fengxi porcelain include carving, molding, carving, kneading, pasting, carving, engraving, printing and pressing. The decoration methods are also rich and colorful, among which carving and kneading are the most famous. Fengxi porcelain artists are good at portraying characters and animals by means of realism, exaggeration and deformation. The products are of high artistry, brilliance and unique charm. Among the firing techniques of Fengxi porcelain, the unique one is the whole body hollowing out technique, which is a combination of colored porcelain and molded porcelain flowers. That is to say, the original blank is carved with various patterns, molded with porcelain clay, and then fired in the kiln. In addition, there are multi-level hollowing and three-dimensional porcelain flowers and other unique crafts, which can be called outstanding skills.
With the change of the times, the system of porcelain production enterprises changed, and the original creators scattered. Many old porcelain artists were forced to change their ways in order to make a living. Most of the young and middle-aged artists went to business, resulting in the situation of no successors. At present, the production of Fengxi porcelain has greatly shrunk, and some skills have been lost, which is in urgent need of protection and rescue.
