Comments:Published PDF date : Qing Room 95 label text:PDF 133Stick incense holder in the form of an elephantPotters in the late Ming and Qing dynasties made copies of Ding wares at Jingdezhen in Jiangxi province, Zhangzhou in Fujian province and in other southern kilns. This incense-stick holder (one of a pair) is modelled in the form of a caparisoned elephants (saddled with a blanket and wearing bridles). Potters at Zhangzhou underfired the body below porcelain temperature. It is chalky white or ‘rice–coloured’ and potters covered it either with a white slip and a thin transparent glaze with a yellowish cast that crackled during the cooling process or with an opaque white glaze. Connoisseurs once called this type of ceramic 土定 (tu ding ‘earthen Ding ware’). Underfired porcelain with incised and applied details and clear glaze, fitted with cloisonné enamel incense holder Zhangzhou ware 漳州窯Zhangzhou, Fujian province 福建省, 漳州, cloisonné made in Beijing 北京Qing dynasty, cloisonné: Qianlong mark and period, AD 1736–1795 PDF 133白釉象形香插自晚明至清，江西景德鎮、福建漳州及其他一些南方窯口的陶工都仿燒定窯器物。此香插为模制，象形，象身覆坐毯、系缰绳。漳州陶工的烧造温度低于瓷器烧成温度。釉色为粉白色，或者說米色。陶工可能在黃色坯胎上塗抹白色化妝土而後罩透明釉燒成，在冷卻過程中形成開片，也有可能施不透明白釉燒成。鑒賞家們曾將此類陶瓷稱為“土定”。生燒瓷器，劃花，局部貼花，透明釉；嵌琺瑯香插漳州窯福建省漳州；琺瑯部分製作於北京清代；琺瑯帶乾隆本朝款，1736-1795年
