唐三彩是中国陶瓷的重要品种之一。确定唐三彩的来源，对于研究古代贸易等问题具有重要意义。本文比较了产自巩县和耀州两个唐三彩产地、外观相似的唐三彩的ICP-MS微量元素和TIMS Sr-Nd同位素。在大于40种微量元素中，珙县样品中许多元素的含量/比值变化较小，而耀州样品中的含量/比值变化较大。但两地样品的87 Sr/86 Sr和143 Nd/144 Nd同位素比值变化很小。珙县和耀州两个样品在主量元素上相似，但Sr-Nd同位素和微量元素特征明显不同，这些分析数据可以进行地球化学解释，表明Sr、Nd同位素在陶瓷物源研究中具有很大的潜力。这些样品的独特特征为来源不明的唐三彩的种源鉴定提供了有价值的依据。本文还分析了两件现代赝品，并以此标准与唐三彩鉴别。
Tang sancai is one of the most important types of Chinese ceramics. To determine the provenance of Tang sancai is important to study ancient trade and other issues. In this paper we compare ICP-MS trace elements and TIMS Sr–Nd isotopes of visibly similar Tang sancai from two major production centres Gongxian and Yaozhou. The variation in contents/ratios of many of >40 trace elements is small for samples from Gongxian, yet is considerably bigger for that from Yaozhou. However, the variation in87Sr/86Sr and143Nd/144Nd isotopic ratios is very small for samples from both places. Gongxian and Yaozhou samples have distinctive Sr–Nd isotopic and trace element features despite their similarity in major elements, and these analysis data can be interpreted with geochemistry, indicating that Sr and Nd isotopes have great potential in ceramic provenance studies. The distinct characterisation of these samples provides valuable criteria for identifying provenance of Tang sancai of uncertain origin. Two modern fakes are also analysed, and they can as well be distinguished from antique Tang sancai using above criteria.
