Review of Cloisonne Process

Cloisonne is an important metal handicraft in China. To make cloisonne, firstly, we should use red copper as a tire, then craftsmen draw on it, and then stick corresponding patterns on the copper tire with copper wires according to the drawn patterns, and then embed enamel glazes of different colors in the patterns, and finally make it through repeated sintering, polishing and gold plating. Cloisonne is not only made of bronze and porcelain, but also integrated with traditional hand-painted and carved techniques, which is a master of China's traditional techniques. This kind of copper enamel was founded in Jingtai period of Ming Dynasty, and it was named cloisonne because the bottom glaze of enamel color was mostly blue. Modern cloisonne has become the name of handicraft, not the color.

Cloisonne craft not only uses bronze craft, but also absorbs porcelain craft. At the same time, a large number of traditional painting and carving techniques are introduced. It is a complex technological process integrating metallurgy, casting, painting, kiln industry, carving, chiseling and hammering, and it can be called the pinnacle of traditional crafts in China. Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a saying that "a cloisonne has ten boxes of official kiln wares". The technology of Taihefang cloisonne has been passed down, and the new technology has been developed and studied. At the same time, Taihefang cloisonne can also be customized privately according to your own preferences.

Cloisonne is the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient working people. In the historical changes of Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, industrious and intelligent craftsmen and artists created brilliant cloisonne culture with their own hands. They hammered the copper plate into a tire shape with simple tools, cut the silk into different patterns such as flowers by hand, filled in glazes of various colors with spatulas, and sintered the glazes on the copper tire pinched with torches. Visitors can also see the few cloisonne art treasures left at that time, and some cloisonne treasures from the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are also circulating among the people today.

According to our quality standards, a cloisonne artifact of the Ming Dynasty is obviously different from the cloisonne product produced today. Nowadays, cloisonne has obviously improved in silk, blue, grinding, appearance, polishing, copper and sand holes. Because the production conditions are many times better than those in ancient times 500 years ago. Reduce sand holes to a minimum, thus greatly improving product quality. Today, cloisonne is still made by hand, and it has to go through complicated technological processes such as tire making, twisting, welding, bluing, burning, polishing and gold plating.

After the founding of New China, the development of cloisonne experienced the changes of the times and made great progress, including cloisonne and cloisonne. Cloisonne products are divided into two parts: Di Chin Cloisonne and Landy Cloisonne. Cloisonne filigree is divided into three parts: Di Chin filigree, Yin Di filigree and Randy filigree cloisonne, and filigree cloisonne also includes Di Chin filigree and Yin Di filigree products. Cloisonne is deeply loved by people all over the world and has become an indispensable ornament and enduring handicraft in home life.

In the early 1980s, the "Platinum Crystal for Enamel" developed by Master Zhang Tonglu, who is known as the "First Cloisonne in China", won the national patent. This kind of "platinum enamel crystal" breaks through the limitation of traditional cloisonne craft and traditional metal matrix, and uses traditional painting decoration techniques such as ink painting, traditional Chinese painting and western oil painting to create art on the plane, making cloisonne murals, cloisonne screens and other handicrafts. 20 13 Zhang Tonglu's new work Bright Future was released in Beijing.
