Product Description and Story
1. Covering the traditional Tianmu glaze using black pottery and black glaze stereotypes, we boldly adopted the concept of "ancient glaze new porcelain" to design a series of Tianmu glaze teacups, tea bowls and teapots. Let artworks enter homes and the exquisite gift market.
2. Although the functional orientation cannot be said to be innovative, the shape is extended from the Song Dynasty tea bowl, which gives people the aesthetic connotation of life. When using it, it is like returning to the tea-tasting scene in the ancient Song Dynasty. While tasting tea, you can appreciate the colorful and varied Tenmoku glaze. Your mind will seem to have entered another world, which increases the fun of tea tasting.
3. The shape adopts the standard pot, which conforms to the principle of ergonomics and is easy to hold. It is made of high minerals, has the function of activating water quality, and the glaze color is unique.
4.-DropGlaze Oil-Drop Tianmu, also known as Oil-Drop Black Glaze, is a famous ceramic glaze that occupies an important position in the history of China's ceramic development. The most representative ones are Jian Kiln and Jizhou Kiln in southern China. Henan, Shandong and Shanxi in the north have also produced it. Oil-drop Tianmu glaze is a glaze with a high iron content. During high-temperature firing, Fe2O3 will decompose into a large amount of gas. During the cooling process, the gas forms bubbles that spread over the glaze surface, forming a layer of hematite or magnetite crystals with a metallic luster, producing a clear interface and orderly distributed oil-drop-shaped crystals on the glaze surface. The effect resembles oil drops or raindrops, so it is called "oil-drop" or "raindrop" glaze. The firing process is sensitive to the thickness of the glaze and the small firing temperature range. The calmness, restraint, texture and varied oil-drop spots after firing are all the main reasons why Oil-drop Tianmu has become a famous glaze in ancient and modern China, and in modern times it has also become one of the indispensable ceramic collections in the collecting world.
