黃釉瓷器型多樣、釉色獨特,時而展現恬淡嬌嫩之美感,時而變換溫潤淡雅之風韻。《通典》注云:“黃者,中和美色,黃承天德,最盛淳美,故以尊色為溢也。”一直以來,黃釉都是明清時期皇家的嚴控釉色,而黃釉瓷器則成為明清皇室的獨享瓷器,專為皇帝御用或為祭祀專用。隨著帝制的終結,黃釉瓷器因在皇權威嚴中刻下的印記而令它成為奢華、尊貴的象徵,而近年來在藝術收藏市場,在藏家眼中越發嬌豔潤澤,亮麗可人。或許,在市場的不斷髮掘下,它的價格終將與其等級相匹配。

弘治黃釉,詩意“嬌黃”,明代弘治時期,澆黃釉瓷器燒造技術達到歷史最高峰,因呈色淡雅,給人以恬淡嬌嫩之美,人們給它起了一個極富詩意的名字——“嬌黃”。弘治澆黃是在弘治年間創燒的一種極為名貴的精美器種,論之髮色前朝後世皆不及,是歷史上低溫黃釉的最高水準器,因其嬌嫩、豔麗、雋秀、精巧、小可、迎人的誘人風格令人愛不釋手。黃釉器的資料顯示,最早於永樂,但澆黃釉器只產於弘治,並採用了永樂甜白淺劃花工藝風格,更顯得嬌嫩、錦上添花。弘治黃釉器是專為宮廷燒造的器種,因而無論大小器物無一不精,是並列明朝六大器種(洪武釉裡紅、永樂甜白、永宣青花、宣五彩、成鬥彩、弘治澆黃)之一的名貴器種,正因此見之不易、得之更難。

而黃釉一般分為“澆黃”和“檸檬黃”兩種。明清時期大多的黃釉器都是“澆黃”,所謂“澆黃”,是指採用“澆釉”的方式來施釉,然後再經低溫焙燒而成,因此俗稱“澆黃”。“檸檬黃”則到清代雍正時才創燒出來。

明代弘治時期,澆黃釉瓷器燒造技術達到歷史最高峰,因呈色淡雅,給人以恬淡嬌嫩之美,人們給它起了一個極富詩意的名字——“嬌黃”。宮廷造辦處和景德鎮御窯廠的匠師,還嘗試利用從歐洲傳來的琺琅料燒造低溫單色釉瓷器。此後,推陳出新,相繼出現胭脂紅釉瓷器、“淡黃釉”等品種。主要見於雍正、乾隆、嘉慶、道光時期,尤以雍正時期的作品質量最好、受到的評價亦最高。

據《大明會典》載:“洪武九年定,私郊各陵瓷器,圜丘青色,方丘黃色,日壇赤色,月壇白色”。可見黃色專用於祭地神。據史料記載,孝宗已擬好廢除官窯的詔書,張皇后看後,提醒道“御用貢瓷可廢,但祭天地之禮儀萬不可廢也!廢則群臣不服,百姓怨怒!”孝宗認為有理,遂命御窯只燒單色釉青、黃、紅、白之祭祀用瓷。這也讓所有御窯藝人放棄了成化時五花八門的品種,只專注於燒製單色釉瓷,集中了全副精力,使得單色釉瓷更加精益求精。其中最成功的的無非是澆黃釉。

業內人士表示,在藝術品拍賣市場中,流傳有序的黃釉瓷器並不多見,卻總能以高價亮相,成交狀況一直位列前茅,價位高的已達數百萬千萬元,只要是官窯,又是精品,就具備潛力。在未來的幾年,黃釉瓷器的價格還會穩步繼續上升。
