精品推荐：青花缠枝纹大缸
缠枝纹在唐宋大兴，在元明清达到顶峰。无论是丝绸还是瓷器，金碗还是木雕，都能完美地展现。有时它作为躲在一隅的配角，成为烘托主图最好的装饰条；有时它就是主体图案，构图丰满，层次多而不乱。

按照中国人“图必有意，意必吉祥”的原则，缠枝纹最为表象的含义就是“长生”与“富贵”。植物有着最强烈的四季轮回的既视感，也有着多子多福的象征味儿，难怪中国还亲切地称呼缠枝纹为“长寿藤”。

然而鲜为人所注意的是，缠枝花所具有的特殊节奏感，有跌宕，有起伏，有声势，恰似人生的一个个阶段，也如一个个生命握手相连。

 

此件青花缠枝纹大缸，高约18.8cm；底径约12.9cm；口径约24.5cm；重约2354g。内壁洁白如玉，外部通体以植物的枝杆或蔓藤作骨架，向上下、左右延伸，形成波线式的二方连续或四方连续，循环往复，变化无穷。即为“缠枝纹样”，俗称“缠枝花”，又名“万寿藤”。因其结构连绵不断，故又具“生生不息”之意，寓意吉庆。

 

在中国古代帝王的心目中，花卉植物也具有特别含义，在清代帝王赏赐大臣的瓷器中，举凡雍、乾、嘉、道、咸五朝皇帝所赐，都是以青花缠枝莲为主要纹饰，除了显示等级和地位以外，皇帝还有自己的潜台词：“官以清（青），白为重，廉（莲）为先。”故而此件青花缠枝纹大缸寓意高洁，具有颇高的收藏观赏价值。
