In the late Ming Dynasty, Zhangzhou porcelain had misunderstood foreign researchers. First of all, the name is wrong. The foreign scientific name is Swatow Ware, which is mistaken for such a Shantou export. Now everyone knows that it is the exit of Zhangzhou Yuegang, so it should be called Zhangzhou instrument. The name is important to academics. What is more related to the collection is how to correctly identify Zhangzhou instruments.

There is a "Shantou" colorful can in foreign auctions and stores. Phoenix wears peony, children, lions and other paintings, and many sauces are rough. The following is one of the pairs in the recent US auction. See Figure 1, 2, 3.

At that time, the shoulders were soft, but it was faintly felt that the glaze, paintings and bottoms were not understood, and they were like a late Ming and Kangxi, or they were not very like. After Xingtou, I forgot that the information accumulated in the subconscious. When I suddenly thought of it, I often had a new understanding.

This can is different from early products in three aspects: First, the glaze color does not match, compared with the late Ming Dynasty in Figure 6 Zhangzhou Museum; and compared with Kangxi's green glaze, this can of this can of green vitality (see Figure 7, left for Kangxi , Right for this product). The second is the colorful rigid board, and the flat -painted alum red peony is not as living with Kangxi (see Figure 8, the left is Kangxi, and the right is the product). Third, the bottom foot is wrong, and the rough feet are not late (see Figure 9, the left is late Ming, and the right is the product). Therefore, the colorful device similar to the first and this can should be the imitation of the late Qing Dynasty and later.

It can also be regarded as life and death, and the dispute between the barbaric is heavy from Taishan. It can also be obedient to change, depending on all things like clouds. When you forget the dispute, a new idea will be blooming in your heart one day, so you know that the real pseudo -pseudo -growing is accompanied by growth.
