TRADITION OF MATERIAL IMITATION AND COLOR IN CERAMIC
Abstract
Ceramic material has continuously been a part of the culture as from the time when it started to be used by humans until today. Within this culture, it is also noteworthy that, in addition to the containers that are used for eating, drinking and storing which correspond to the needs of our daily lives, they are also used for religious purposes. Ceramics, which at times have distinguished as a cultural value in the course of history, have sometimes remained in the shadow of other materials. When the development process of the ceramic material is closely examined, it is seen that the imitations of certain materials that gained value in the period have been produced using ceramics. Some of these ceramics do not have any other value except that they are similar to the material they imitate, but some others have gone beyond the value of the material they have imitated and have gained essential places in the ceramic production traditions and created original color identities. Old Bronze age black-lined ceramics, Egyptian paste, lajvardina and celadon glazes are the most important ones among these examples. Within the scope of this study, color identities of the ceramics produced for imitation purposes will be addressed and their contribution to the material culture will be reviewed.
