Tianjin Porcelain House Experience Ticket

Description

Porcelain House - It is not a "house" in the traditional sense, but a "porcelain art museum" pieced together with millions of pieces of ancient porcelain shards and thousands of complete porcelain items. It is also a vivid carrier of the collision of Chinese and Western cultures and the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage skills. From the French-style bungalows of the Republic of China to today's "Tianjin Internet celebrity landmark", the Porcelain House has become a unique cultural symbol of the city with nearly a hundred years of historical accumulation and more than ten years of ingenious transformation. Approaching the Porcelain House, the first thing that hits the vision is the "brilliant feeling" of the entire building being wrapped in porcelain pieces. Whether it is the exterior wall, roof, pillars, or door and window frames, stair railings, and even the rockery and sculptures in the courtyard, they are covered with dense porcelain pieces. Under the sunlight, the different colors of porcelain pieces refract a warm luster, like a "flowing porcelain art scroll." According to statistics, the renovation of the Porcelain House has used a total of 1 million pieces of ancient porcelain shards, 13,000 complete porcelain pieces, more than 300 porcelain bottles, and dozens of porcelain plates and bowls. These porcelain materials cover many periods from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the Republic of China, and the variety is amazingly rich: there are both famous kiln porcelains such as blue and white, famille rose, Jun porcelain, and Ru porcelain, as well as folk common blue and white porcelain pieces; there are both colorful "underglaze red" porcelain pieces, and elegant "shadow celadon" fragments. There are many treasures among them, such as some Ming and Qing official kiln porcelain pieces, although they have been worn out over the years, you can still see the delicate patterns and exquisite craftsmanship. These porcelain materials are not stacked randomly, but are carefully selected and classified. Zhang Lianzhi's team classifies the porcelain pieces according to color, age, and pattern, and then splices them according to the architectural structure and aesthetic needs: the exterior wall is based on blue and white blue and white porcelain pieces, and is decorated with red and yellow famille rose porcelain pieces; the roof is arranged with complete porcelain bottles into a "wavy shape" to simulate the effect of traditional building tiles; the rockery in the courtyard is pieced together with porcelain pieces of different sizes to create a "layered" artistic conception, and even a Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain bottle is placed on the top of the rockery, which becomes the visual focus.
