Development of Chinese Ceramic History
As one of the four ancient civilizations, China has made great contributions to the development of today's world. As we all know, in addition to China's four great inventions, ceramics is also one of China's great inventions. But what do you know about ceramics? How much do you know about the development of Chinese ceramic history? Here is a brief introduction to the development of China ceramics history and other related knowledge.

I. History of Chinese Ceramics (Development of Ceramic History)

In the history of ceramic development in China, apart from the "four great inventions", the most striking thing is ceramics. China's English name came from this. But most people know nothing about ceramics. In their eyes, ceramics are integrated. In fact, pottery and porcelain are completely different objects. Before pottery appeared, clay was used to make blanks; Porcelain was produced later, and it was made of porcelain clay, and the kiln temperature of the two was different.

1. From the legendary Yellow Emperor Yao Shun to the Xia Dynasty (about 2 1 century-BC16th century), painted pottery marked its development. Among them, there are typical Yangshao culture, Majiayao culture and Qijia culture later discovered in Gansu. After liberation, a large number of beautifully made painted pottery were unearthed from the prehistoric site in Anbanpo, Xi 'an.

2. In the Han Dynasty from 206 BC to 220 AD, jade and metal were no longer the main creative materials for artists and craftsmen, and pottery was paid more attention.

3. During the Six Dynasties (AD 220-58 1), the rapidly rising Buddhist art also had a corresponding influence on ceramics, leaving obvious traces on the modeling of this season's works.

4. The Tang Dynasty (AD 6 18 to 970) is regarded as a great period in the art history of China. The technology of ceramics has been greatly improved, and many exquisite porcelain varieties have appeared in large numbers. Even using today's technical appraisal standards, it can be regarded as real high-quality porcelain.

5. The history of Chinese ceramics flourished in the Song Dynasty (960- 1279) and began to be exported to Europe and Southeast Asian countries. Famous kilns with different characteristics, such as Jun kiln, Ru kiln, Guan kiln, Ge kiln and Ding kiln, have sprung up all over the country, and their products are becoming more and more colorful.

6. The history of China ceramics to Ming Dynasty started from 1368 to 1644. During this period, Jingdezhen's ceramic manufacturing industry was absolutely the best in the world, occupying a prominent position in technology and art, especially blue and white porcelain.

7. After the founding of the Republic of China, a number of ceramic research institutions were established in various places, but their products simply copied some foreign designs and did not develop at all.

2. History of Chinese ceramics (origin of ceramics)

1. Ceramics is the general term for pottery and porcelain. As early as the Neolithic Age about 8,000 years ago, people invented pottery.

More than 2.9000 years ago, China ancestors engaged in fishing and hunting and agricultural production activities, which not only started the most primitive building activities, but also invented and used fire.

3. In the long-term labor practice of transforming nature, with numerous successful experiences, pottery, an artistic creation that has become one of China's ancient cultures, began to be manufactured and used, which opened the "Neolithic Age" in the history of human development.

4. The earliest painted pottery originated in the Yellow River valley, especially in Jinghe, Weihe and eastern Gansu in Shaanxi. The first phase of Dadiwan culture in Longdong is one of the earliest painted pottery cultures in the world, which is not only regular in shape, but also simple in painted patterns. During this period, pottery wheel technology appeared, and pottery making became a special technology.

The above is the development of China ceramics history and the origin of ceramics introduced by Bian Xiao. Ceramics is not only one of China's great inventions, but also a symbol of China's long history. The above contents hope to let you know the history of China ceramics.
