Identification method of true and false purple clay pot, method of identification of true and false

Some white dots (starlight) and black dots (iron melting point) can be seen on the surface of the pot made of real purple sand ore, which is a purple sand pot.

Quartz ore and non-fusing iron in the mine are formed after high-temperature firing. To identify the real and fake purple clay pot, you can pick it up and take a look, whether there is starlight and iron melting point, if not, then it is definitely not a real purple clay pot.

Different purple sand mud materials will have different starlight melting points. Some chemical pots will add fine sand and other things to make the appearance of starlight melting point.

The popularity of the purple clay pot is because of the unique double porous structure, which can be used overnight to make tea without rancidness and can present the original taste of tea. Therefore, if the purple clay pot is real, then it must be breathable and absorbent. Pour some hot water into the purple clay pot to warm the pot, pour boiling water outside, and you can see that the surface of the pot has hanging water and absorbs the phenomenon, which means that it has the nature of the purple sand pot, which is a real purple sand material, otherwise it is a fake.

Different muds have different air permeability, such as vermilion mud pots, due to their high innate density, their air permeability and water absorption are worse than other muds.

Look at the color.

Yixing purple clay pot is rich and diverse, and the texture is clear, the color is round, showing a matte texture.

Fake purple clay pot, single color, generally only orange-yellow, there is a feeling of yellow mud when you look closely, and the color is dull and has no luster. Look at the condition.

The shape of the purple clay pot is changeable and exquisite, the production is fine, and the details and proportions are paid more attention.

However, the fake pot is rough in production, the shape is dull and stiff, and the details are handled casually, which looks relatively vulgar. Listen for the tapping.

If the sound of the pot is crisp and pleasant, and the sound stops, it is generally a real pot. The knocking sound of the imitation pot is dull and short, and if the sound is slightly too high, it may be a new pot; However, if the sound is too sharp and crisp, it is mostly imitated by chemical mud. Feel the texture.

A good purple clay pot should give people a warm, comfortable, delicate but not slippery touch.

Fake purple clay pots generally feel very rough, or they will be slippery and greasy to the touch.

Look at the stamp engraving.

When purple sand artists make purple sand pots, they will stamp their own exclusive stamps on the bottom of the pot, the lid or the handle, and some of them are directly engraved with a knife.

Celebrity seal engraving will not change for many years, or even for life, it can be said that the seal is the most direct basis for identifying the author of the purple clay pot.

But now the imitation will also imitate the engraving of the seal, this kind of high imitation, it is easy to make people deceived, so to buy a famous pot, it is best to learn more about the author's style and the previous works of the engraved chapter, so as to be sharp-eyed. Watering.

Watering on the top of the true purple clay pot, the water will spread out into a relatively uniform piece, and will not form obvious water droplets, and then it will gradually be absorbed by the pot after a short time.

However, when water is poured on the clay jars and porcelain, it will form noticeable raised droplets until it finally dries.

An introduction to the definition of the authenticity of the purple clay pot.

Certificate: Generally, the purple sand pot has a handwritten certificate of the maker, the certificate is usually rice paper, brush writing, calligraphy handsome, the value of the good purple sand pot is more reflected in the calligraphy and painting skills, stamped with the seal, and the seal is consistent with the purple sand imitation of the bottom of the pot.

The methods of identifying the authenticity of the purple clay pot are: color, specific gravity, appearance, texture, impurities, watering, etc.

1. Color. You can identify the authenticity of the purple clay pot from the color, the color of the real purple sand pot is thicker and not bright, but the color is bright, the body of the pot is complete and fine, and the fake color is more vivid, it looks like it gives people a colorful feeling, and it is easy to fade after a long time.

2. Specific gravity. Or identify the real from the specific gravity, the real purple clay pot will have an obvious sense of abrasion in the hand, the tire pot is thicker, the texture is dense and hard, and the fake weight is very light, and it will feel light in the hand.

3. Condition. The real purple clay pot has a changeable shape, fine workmanship, and pays more attention to some details, while the fake shape is relatively single, looks a lot stiffer, and even the details are very casual and blind sail spring processing, the overall lack of aura, looks more fake.

Purple clay potIdentification of authenticity can be passedLook at the texture, measure the weight, look at the color, and touchSpout, sunflowers, and traces of cohesion are distinguished from these six aspects

1. Look at the texture.

The real purple sand pot has not undergone any chemical treatment, only made by a high degree of polishing and carving, the section is relatively rough, the sand on the surface is more obvious, and the fake one is smoother to the touch, and the sand is very small.

2. Measure the weight.

The texture of the real purple clay pot is hard and thick, with high density and a large proportion, if you put it in your hand and weigh it carefully, you will obviously feel a certain pressure feeling, and most of the fake ones are caused by filling, and you feel light and fluttering in your hand.

3. Look at the color.

The color of the real purple clay pot is relatively dull, it looks thicker, and the aura is overflowing, while most of the fake colors are caused by chemical treatment, and the color of the surface is too bright, and it is easy to appear black after a long time.

4. Touch the spout.

Generally speaking, the purple clay pot with poor materials is made by the machine as a whole, the production speed is fast, and the production speed is directly mass-produced, so the inside and outside of the purple clay pot are particularly smooth. The real purple clay pot touches the spout with your hands, and you will find that it is relatively rough and cannot be particularly smooth.

5. Sunflower.

The real purple clay pots made of purple clay are basically all handmade.

So the bottom of the pot on the inside will have a distinct sunflower shape. Counterfeit purple clay pots, on the other hand, usually do not have sunflowers, and there are upward stripes at the inner junction between the bottom and the body.

6. Traces of cohesion.

Generally speaking, most of the real purple clay pots are all handmade, so there will be obvious traces of connection between the spout, body and bottom of the pot. At the junction of the two blocks, there will be traces of a circle of joints. The fake purple clay pot is formed in one piece, and there will be no traces.

The method of identifying the authenticity of the purple clay pot is as follows:

1. Bright or weird colors are fake. The pot with particularly bright, bright and weird colors is basically a chemical material, and the colorful and bright colors in nature are warning colors.

2. Is there any weight after getting it in your hand (except for thin tires). Fake material, thin tire pot is relatively light, easy to break, and there is no sense of weight in the hand; The weight of a real purple clay pot is average, and a purple clay pot needs about half a catty of mud.

3. Whether there is a good sense of "sand". The surface of the pot is thick, and the particles of the pot are wrapped in a layer of slurry on the surface, or the particles can not be seen, so the "mud pot" is not, because the air permeability is greatly discounted, and the taste of purple sand is lost, and the purple sand pot should pay attention to the "sand" feeling.

4. The particles are not clear and dissolved, and there are no pores in the cross-section. Look at the raw ore particles of the pot to be clear. In some pots with chemicals, the chemicals wrap the granules, and the particles are not clear.

Features of purple clay pots

The purple clay pot does not taste good, and the tea does not change color when stored in the tea, even in the middle of summer, the tea brewed is still not easy to spoil. Due to the long time of brewing tea, the tea slowly penetrates into the pottery, and if you only soak in water, there is also a clear tea fragrance.

The purple sand pot is an "antique" with collectible value, and the works of famous masters are often difficult to find. The purple clay pot used to be a unique handmade clay handicraft in China, and now it is also made in large quantities by machines. The raw material is purple sand mud, which originates in Yixing, Jiangsu, and is also known as Yixing purple sand pot.
