自晚清以来,首先由一些外国人开始关注、著录宜兴陶业。到20世纪前期,中国人对于窑口、产品、工艺等宜兴陶业情况的文献记录逐渐涌现,其中包括宜兴制陶环节中最具特色的泥片成型工艺。传统泥片成型工艺虽延续至今,但以如今的制作方法与之相比,诸多方面和细节已逐渐改变,甚至消失。宜兴窑业传统工艺的传承与保护,任重而道远。 Since the late Qing dynasty, some foreigners began to pay attention and recorded Yixing pottery industry. By the early twentieth century, the Chinese documented the situation of pottery in Yixing, such as kiln mouth, products and crafts, including the most characteristic mud forming process in Yixing pottery festival. Although the traditional process of forming mud until now, but compared with today’s production methods, many aspects and details have gradually changed, or even disappear. Yixing kiln heritage and protection of traditional crafts, long way to go.
