Chinese Antique Roof Tiles Restore the Classical Essence

July 10, 2023

In Chinese-style buildings, the roof stands at the highest point and is the easiest to become the focus of vision. At the same time, in ancient Chinese architecture, special attention and emphasis will be placed on the design of the roof, which constitutes people's intuitive impression of the entire Chinese architectural system.

The final presentation effect of the roof depends on the arrangement of each roof tile. Regarding the two most commonly used tiles in ancient buildings, one is antique small green tile and the other is glazed roof tiles.

1. Antique Small Green Tile

Antique small green tile is the most common kind of tile, its surface is dark blue, not glazed, and it has been widely used since ancient China.

Antique small green tiles are fired from clay, and the main raw materials are generally loess and clay. The production process is relatively traditional, and the process from mud processing, molding, and drying to firing is generally completed manually.

2. Glazed Tile

Glazed tiles have beautiful colored glaze on the surface, which is very decorative. In ancient China, the use of glazed tiles had a strict hierarchy, usually used in royal buildings or high-level temples, and ordinary civilians could not use them.

The production process of glazed tiles generally includes raw material preparation, melting, and firing. The production process must be strictly controlled, and the sintering temperature, the degree of porcelain, and the brightness of the glaze color are all closely related to the final product of the glazed tile.
