Ming Dynasty, Tianqi Period Yellow-Glazed Teapot Stand
Tea Elegance in Turbulent Times: A Glimpse into Ming Literati Taste

The teapot stand (hucheng), an essential component of Chinese tea ceremony since the Tang and Song dynasties, served both practical and aesthetic purposes—catching drips from teapots while embodying refined table manners and literati sensibility. During the Tianqi reign (1621–1627), such stands typically adopted a shallow dish form, with yellow glaze standing out for its technical difficulty and courtly associations.

Rare Yellow Elegance Amid Decline
Yellow-glazed wares required a second high-temperature firing, making them technically challenging and costly. While blue-and-white remained widespread, yellow-glazed examples—especially from imperial kilns—were rare due to political upheaval. Civil unrest, peasant revolts, and Manchu invasions nearly halted official kiln production in Jingdezhen, rendering extant “Tianqi nianzhi” marked pieces exceedingly scarce.

Cultural Echoes from Official and Folk Kilns
While official wares favored plain yellow glaze and minimalist formality, folk kilns produced more freely decorated versions, featuring sketch-like landscapes or flowering branches. These seemingly unrefined motifs express a rustic spontaneity that resonated with Ming-era literati ideals of harmony with nature and modest elegance.

明天啟 黃釉壺承
動盪中的茶韻:明末文人風雅之器

壺承,源自唐宋茶道文化,是中國古代茶席中不可或缺的核心器具,主要用以承接壺底滴水,保持席面潔淨,同時亦為品茗雅集增添禪意與格調。至明清時期,壺承多製為淺盤狀,天啟年間尤見黃釉與青花二式,其中黃釉製品因工藝複雜、需二次高溫燒成,存世官窰器極為罕見。

黃釉難得,官燒尤珍
黃釉屬高難度釉色,須經兩次燒成,方能呈現色澤均勻、潤亮明快之效果。天啟時期政局動盪,後金南侵、農民起義四起,導致景德鎮官窰幾近停燒,官方瓷器產量銳減,帶「天啟年製」款者可謂鳳毛麟角,彌足珍貴。

文人品味,雅俗交融
官窰壺承多為素色釉面、形制樸素,寓含宮廷莊重;民窰製品則喜以簡筆山水、折枝花卉為飾,筆意灑脫,別具野逸之趣,與晚明文人推崇的自然恬淡、返樸歸真理念相契,為一時風雅所寄。
