The brilliant color of Koji pottery is due to the glaze, which provides a feast for the eyes. The glaze can be traced back to the low-temperature lead glaze used during the Warring States Period in Qin. It was further developed in the styles of Han green glaze, Tang Sancai, Song Sancai, Liao Sancai, Jin and Yuan Sancai, and Ming and Qing Sancai. In Taiwan, the glaze plays an indispensable role in architectural ceramics. The development of glaze and ceramic art in Taiwan has remained mature over time. Glaze research involves continual testing and experimentation. In this study, we mixed glazes with white lead, red lead, quartz, feldspar, and kaolin in the traditional manner and used cobalt oxide, copper oxide, copper carbonate, and other metal oxides as colorants to demonstrate the luster and color that Koji pottery is capable of. We generated the basic hues of red, pink, orange, yellow, light yellow, grass green, dark green, aqua blue, dark blue, purple, brown, and black and used a transparent glaze to adjust the color according to hue and lightness requirements to create a set of 109 swatches of Koji pottery glaze. Low-temperature lead glaze technology should not be limited to ancient pottery restorations and architectural decorations, but should be widely used in living ceramics and cultural and creative products. Doing so will popularize the art form and thus ensure that glaze techniques can be passed down. |
