The legendary Lu family has been handed down from generation to generation for 130 years. Looking at the fire of China Jun porcelain, it experienced the historical vicissitudes of the Qing Dynasty, from the strong outside to the weak, the warlords scuffled, and the strong enemy invaded to the new-democratic revolution. Among the six generations in the past hundred years, there are many people who have devoted their lives to Jun porcelain, but their history is unknown. The following is just a brief introduction to several founders' representatives in the history of Lujia.
Lu Zhentai (1825 ~ 1892) was the founder of restoring Jun porcelain in the late Qing Dynasty. The boy from Mi County, Henan Province fled his hometown with his father and settled in Shendong Town, where he worked as a potter and farm worker with his brother Zhong Zhen.
In the fifth year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (1879), the two brothers found a lot of porcelain tiles in the ground, which were washed by rain and glistened in the sun. They picked it up and asked the old man. Knowing that it was a Jun porcelain, they decided to burn it. Two people running around, learning technology, looking for raw materials, trying to burn. Because farm work was delayed and life was difficult, they were discouraged and separated from their younger brother. Zhentai made up his mind and ordered the seller to produce, forget all about eating and sleeping, and continue the trial burning. Because of the difficulty, the launch was not successful. Before he died, he called his three sons Tianfu, Tianzeng and Tianen to the bed and repeatedly told him, "I can't burn Jun porcelain. If you want to continue, you must burn successfully. " Later, his sons inherited their father's legacy and finally succeeded in firing, which made great contributions to the restoration of Jun porcelain and was called "Jun porcelain family".
Lu Tianfu (1855 ~ 1900), male, from Yuzhou, the eldest son of Lu Zhentai. Brilliant and innovative, on the basis of his father's trial burning, he worked tirelessly and even sold his family property. After years of hard work, he finally burned out the antique Jun porcelain. Later, I went deep into the principle, discussed with knowledgeable people, and created techniques such as wiping red, flying red and Karan coloring on the basis of the cleaner. At first, the stain was dim, but after improving the formula, it finally succeeded. In the 23rd year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (1897), Bailingweng Temple Theater was completed. He presented a Jun porcelain vase and installed it on the roof of the theater.

Lu Tianzeng (1862 ~ 1925), the third son of Lu Zhentai. He is good at modeling, glaze matching and firing, and has rich experience in firing Jun porcelain with bellows furnace. He can master the temperature, predict the temperature change of the kiln, see the flame in the furnace, know the temperature of the fire, and even conclude that a few more bellows can stop the fire. Most Jun products burned by Tianen are crystal clear and pure in color. 1903 fired a Jun porcelain peach with golden spots and colorful infiltration, which was appreciated by everyone. An antique dealer in Kaifeng came to buy it for 300 silver dollars. In the 30th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1904), Cao Guangquan founded Xing Jun Company in Shen You, with Tian En as the chief craftsman, engaged in the development of Jun porcelain. Many fine products were burned and treasured by the court and collectors. 19 14 In order to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal, the United States held the World Commodities Fair in San Francisco. Tianen led a group of famous Jun porcelain masters to participate in the exhibition, which made the long-lost Jun porcelain resound overseas.

Lu (1894 ~ 1962) is the grandson of Lu Zhentai and the son of Lu Tianfu. Born in a family of Jun porcelain, he studied Jun porcelain skills with his father Lu Tianfu since childhood, and was proficient in glaze color matching and firing methods of Jun porcelain. He dared to break the routine and innovate in practice. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, he tried his best to restore Jun porcelain, even at the expense of selling his property, and was constantly bullied by reactionaries. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he first went to Shenhou No.1 Porcelain Kiln Production Cooperative (namely Yuzhou No.1 Jun Porcelain Factory) to actively participate in the restoration of Jun porcelain, working day and night, providing secret recipes and inheriting technology. 1956, he worked closely with Mr. Shen, a ceramic expert, found a better color formula and created a new type of red glaze after adjusting the proportion of glaze many times. Then it developed into a fish-belly white, vermilion and blue glaze with color spots, which made a new breakthrough in the formula technology of Jun glaze. He observed the temperature with the naked eye, which is extremely accurate and can be called a must. Lu Yu 1962 died of overwork.

In order to improve the level of "lujun", he often climbs cliffs, climbs mountains, sleeps outdoors, goes deep into mountains, looks for raw materials, excavates specimens, and improves glaze formula and firing method. My father and I burned many good works together, some of which can be compared with Gu Jun.
