Ceramic arts and crafts works are not only simple works of art that can be viewed from a distance but not obscene, but have their own unique artistic practicality, and this practicality has gradually become one of the main functions of my country's ceramics. It can be said that ceramic arts and crafts cannot lose its practicality, so whether it is ancient or modern ceramics, its manufacturing process guidelines are "beautiful, practical and economical". Ceramics has a long history in my country and has served people's lives since ancient times. Due to different regional cultures, ceramic manufacturing processes also reflect different styles and characteristics, such as fine pottery, painted pottery and uniform pottery in Yixing, my country's "pottery capital". Underglaze blue and white ceramics in Jingdezhen, my country's "Porcelain Capital", are all important ceramic arts and crafts products that have occupied the international market.

How to identify the relationship between "artistic beauty" and "practicality" of ceramic arts and crafts works? With the different times, people's aesthetic taste for ceramics is also changing. When it comes to the two major characteristics of ceramic arts and crafts, we have to analyze the characteristics of the artistic image it shows. In its production process, it contains a very high artistic component, but technology is not the same as art, because art has its strong freedom and creative play components, so the beauty of ceramic works should be correctly understood, which should be reflected in the creation of themes The conception of design also includes the use of materials and the use of artistic creation skills. Take the purple clay teapot in Yixing, Jiangsu as an example. It has a beautiful appearance and important practicality. It can be matched with gold and silver, and it has unique artistic characteristics when placed alone. Its uniqueness lies in its ingenious workmanship, ingenious shape and ingenious color performance. From the appearance, the shape of the purple clay teapot is very ingenious, reflecting a handsome but not ordinary style. From the perspective of the overall process, it is also in place in terms of visual beauty and tactile comfort, basically taking into account the artistic interest and additional practical functionality that arts and crafts should have; the so-called clever color is to use the natural color of purple sand mud. To highlight the theme ideas to be expressed in the work, it reflects a natural beauty of art and art; the last is the skillful craftsmanship, Yixing Zisha teapot uses craftsmanship such as carving, engraving, sculpting, and pinching, and each step of the craftsmanship is meticulous.

Only when it is in place can the overall artistic effect of the work achieve both form and spirit. Such beautiful ceramic arts and crafts work with gold and silver accessories makes it even more gorgeous, which is very in line with the artistic value of the purple clay teapot itself. It can be said that this traditional art is combined with the creation of high-grade materials of arts and crafts, which integrates the natural beauty and artificial beauty of ceramics, and highlights the regional cultural characteristics and artistic image characteristics of the works. Taking the celadon water jug ​​in Jingdezhen as an example, the lotus leaf is used as the main body in the art design. The side of the jug is decorated with red lotus buds, which rippling by the elegant lotus pond like a slim girl. It can be seen that the whole work is in place in terms of the theme and mood, showing the fresh and refined natural beauty of the main body of the work. At the same time, in addition to the beauty of art, it also fully highlights the dialectical relationship between craftsmanship and art. This shows that the designer has rich artistic heritage in the process of conceiving each piece of work, and it also embodies the author's deep good wishes and emotional orientation. It needs to be tasted repeatedly by the connoisseur in order to feel the beauty of craftsmanship and technology in the work. beauty, and then subtly improve people's aesthetic standards
