Non-Invasive Identification of Blue-And-White Porcelain: Comparison of Vietnamese, Yunnan and Jingdezhen Wares Using Reasoned Visualization and PCA
The XRF, Raman, and fluorescence signatures of approximately fifteen blue-and-white and white porcelain sherds are compared. The assemblage comprises fourteenth- to sixteenth-century porcelain sherds, including Yuan and Ming wares from the Jingdezhen kiln sites, fifteenth- to sixteenth-century wares from the Yuxi and Jianshui kiln sites in Yunnan (China), and Vietnamese sherds comparable to ceramics recovered from the Cu Lao Cham (Hoi An) shipwre…
Coloring of Spun Glass Figurines Attributed to Nevers—A Huge Variety of Composition Imposed by the Preparation Process
For the first time, twenty spun polychrome glass figurines (considered as tangible cultural heritage objects) stylistically assigned to workshops of the city of Nevers from the 17th to 19th centuries have been analyzed at the Musée de la Faïence et des Beaux-Arts of Nevers using non-invasive XRF and Raman spectroscopy. The results are compared with those previously obtained for figurines assigned to the Perrot’s Orléans workshop. A wide variety o…
Non-Invasive Mobile Raman and pXRF Analysis of Armorial Porcelain with the Coat of Arms of Louis XV and Others Enamelled in Canton: Analytical Criteria for Authentication
Nine glazed porcelain artifacts bearing the coat of arms of France, from King Louis XV tableware orders, were analysed at the laboratory or in their conservation secure room. Based on the experience acquired in the study of 18th century European and Chinese porcelain using mobile XRF (pXRF) and Raman microspectroscopy, a comparison of the impurities in the paste (Y, Rb, and Sr), the elements associated with cobalt in the blue overglaze (Bi, Mn, Z…
PXRF Data Evaluation Methodology for On-Site Analysis of Precious Artifacts: Cobalt Used in the Blue Decoration of Qing Dynasty Overglazed Porcelain Enameled at Customs District (Guangzhou), Jingdezhe…
In a noninvasive determination, Raman and XRF analyses showed the possibility of identifying specific phases and elements characteristic of the use of recipes and ingredients imported from Europe, according to the information documented in Chinese and European archives. Two sets of objects, supposed to have been produced during the Qing Dynasty (1662–1912) at the Forbidden City (‘imperial bowls’ of the Baur Foundation, Geneva) and in the customs …
On-Site Identification of Pottery with pXRF: An Example of European and Chinese Red Stonewares
The invention of European hard porcelain, which aims at imitating kaolin-containing white paste of Chinese porcelain, had been started by the development of the technology of “red porcelain”, so-called “Jaspisporzellan” by Johann Friedrich Böttger in the early-eighteenth century at Meissen (Saxony). The visual features of the earlier Böttger red stoneware were rather similar to the one produced in Yixing, China. The prominence of Böttger producti…
On-Site Raman Spectroscopic Study of Beads from the Necropolis of Vohemar, Northern Madagascar (>13th C.)
In the late 19th century, ancient tombs were discovered near the village of Vohemar at the northeastern point of Madagascar, and subsequent excavations during the French period (1896–1945) revealed the presence of a major necropolis active from ~13th to 18th centuries. Some artefacts (Chinese ceramic shards and glass trade beads) recovered from these excavations was sent to France and now in part belong to the collection of the Musée d’Histoire N…
Portable X-ray Fluorescence (p-XRF) Uncertainty Estimation for Glazed Ceramic Analysis: Case of Iznik Tiles
The aim of this study is to estimate the uncertainty of a portable X-ray fluorescence (p-XRF) instrument for the (semi-quantitative) analyses of tiles with underglaze decoration. Before starting the campaign of on-site measurements, the optimum acquisition time and the most accurate calibration mode were selected. For this purpose, the elemental composition of two glass standards of NIST (SRM610 and SRM612) and a Corning A standard were measured …
