Color-painting

Color-painting:
Color-painting is of two sorts overglaze painting and underglaze painting. Overglaze painting, with five colored painting or fencai as its example, is to outline Zhuming pigment and to fill them with warious colors on the already glazed surface of the porcelain, before it is placed into a closed oven for a further baking at a comparatively low temperature from 700 to 800กข. Underglaze painting is to paint with qinghua underglaze red and other pigments on the body before it is glazed. Its feature is that all the colors are under the glaze formed at high temperature and thus will never fade away.
