Ru Porcelain originates from the 11th century Song Dynasty and is renowned for its monochromatic sky-blue glaze. Monochrome glazes, characterized by their purity, simplicity, and beauty, have long held an esteemed position in the realm of ceramics as a high-level artistic achievement.
Ru Porcelain typically features a bright, glass-like glaze, most commonly a light sky-blue color. However, there is another glaze known as the Archaistic Glaze, which is darker and has a soft, elegant texture. The production of Archaistic Glaze pieces is significantly more challenging, with considerable differences in the firing process and greater complexity in achieving a successful outcome.
What is Archaistic Glaze?
The core concept of Archaistic Glaze lies in emulating the raw materials and formulas used in ancient times to create the glaze. Whether the resulting pieces can achieve the texture and color reminiscent of heirloom-quality Ru Ware depends on the artisan’s mastery of factors such as kiln temperature and atmosphere, rather than merely the glaze’s color.
Color itself transcends distinctions of antiquity, modernity, newness, or age. Some specific colors evoke a sense of simplicity or the naturally aged effect of time, which aligns with human perception and subjective experience. This blend reflects both the artistry of nature and an aesthetic that hearkens back to history, representing a return to classical beauty. More accurately, these hues and aesthetics embody a retro palette and vintage style.
