After the founding of the People's Republic of China, most of the ceramic products produced in Jingdezhen were affixed to the outer soles of porcelain by applique technology, and the text contents were "Jingdezhen in China", "Jingdezhen in China", "China in Jingdezhen in China" and "Made in Jingdezhen in China". According to Wang Zhiguang, since the 1980s, if the porcelain produced in Jingdezhen has the symbol of "Made in Jingdezhen, China", it can basically be concluded that it is exported porcelain, and it must be produced by a large state-owned ceramic enterprise.
In order to distinguish the products from those of these large state-owned ceramic enterprises, ceramic manufacturers with the nature of "large collective" and "small collective" will label their ceramic products with numbers or letters. These English letters and numbers often represent the identity of a "large collective" enterprise, such as the job number of Yuejin Porcelain Factory is "6" and the job number of Shengli Porcelain Factory is "7".
In the ceramic warehouse in Wang Zhiguang, the reporter found a famille rose 375 earring cup produced by the original Xingguang Porcelain Factory. The bottom of the cup is "Made in China, Jingdezhen, China = n =". At that time, the operating nature of Xingguang Porcelain Factory was a "large collective".
According to Wang Zhiguang, the most powerful "collective" ceramic enterprises in Jingdezhen at that time were Hong Guang Porcelain Factory, Shuguang Porcelain Factory, Guangxin Porcelain Factory and Sculpture Porcelain Factory, and each porcelain factory produced different styles of ceramic products. However, neither the top ten state-owned porcelain factories nor the "large collective" ceramic enterprises will mark their own enterprise names in their collections, but the ancient kiln porcelain factory is an exception. The bottom of the small blue-and-white bowl produced by the factory in that year was uniformly marked with the words "Jingdezhen Ancient Kiln" in blue.
The former Hong Guang Porcelain Factory once branded ceramic products as "cold kilns", which is also a special case. All the "cold kiln" porcelains are sold in Taiwan Province, not in Chinese mainland. The ceramics produced by these old ceramic enterprises in Jingdezhen will also adopt a style similar to "candle", and the most representative one is "Dragon Ball Cabinet".
Xu Xiaode, a staff member of the Industry Management Section of Jingdezhen Porcelain Bureau, told the reporter that the trademark "Dragon Ball Cabinet" was registered by Jiangxi Ceramic Industry Company in the 1970s, when it was authorized to be used by Jingdezhen Porcelain Chemical Plant (now the predecessor of Sanlei Company). This chemical plant printed a large number of "Dragon Ball Cabinet" decals and sold them to many ceramic enterprises with certain production conditions and guaranteed product quality. Therefore, the decal of "Dragon Ball Cabinet" can be seen on a large number of ceramic products in that year.
Tian Feng told reporters that Jingdezhen had produced "Memorial Porcelain for the Founding of the People's Republic of China" in the early days of liberation, with the red words "Memorial for the Founding of the People's Republic of China" at the bottom. He once saw such a set of daily-use porcelain in Soong Ching Ling's former residence. Before the Cultural Revolution, Jingdezhen ceramic enterprises produced a large number of antique porcelain in exchange for foreign exchange, with the foundation of "Qing Gan Long" and "Qing Guangxu". At that time, the antique porcelain of the original art porcelain factory used the "Qing Gan Long Nian system" and other basic funds, not handwritten or carved, but directly stamped.
"In the past, many state-owned ceramic enterprises, including' large collective' ceramic enterprises, made the bottom payment in the form of seals and did not like to write by hand." Tian Feng also mentioned that the decals on the surface of porcelain appeared as early as the 1950s. "At that time, decals were baked with charcoal fire."
It should be said that ceramic brushwork belongs to a special decorative technique, which can not only reflect the historical changes, but also reflect the development of human civilization to a certain extent. However, ceramic collectors must be reminded that "money knowledge" can only be used as one of the bases for ceramic appreciation, but not as the "master key" for ancient porcelain identification, let alone as absolute evidence for distinguishing the authenticity of ceramics.
A senior expert on ancient ceramics told reporters that it is no secret that the parts with a sense of money, such as the bottom of a bowl or a bottle, are grafted with the finished ceramics that were fired later.
