Chapter 510 Shippo Burn

"This is Qibaoyaki."

Fang Ming's soft words made everyone stunned for a moment, the name sounded relatively unfamiliar.

"Seven Treasures? Seven Treasures... Seven Treasures of Buddhism? Is this bottle related to Buddhism?"

Sikong Zhe frowned, but he couldn't remember that he had ever heard of such a kind of "porcelain".

"It can be said that in fact Shippo-yaki was not made in our country, or it originated in our country but was finally formed in the island country."

Fang Ming paused for a moment, and then continued, "Let's put it this way, it is actually a kind of porcelain that originated from cloisonne but has its own characteristics."

The so-called cloisonne is also called "copper tire filigree enamel", or "enamel blue", "inlaid enamel", which is a kind of soft flat copper wire made of various patterns and welded on the copper tire shape, and then And the enamel color glaze is filled in the pattern and finally fired. Strictly speaking, it is no longer porcelain.Because this kind of object was very popular in the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, and it also represented the highest level of craftsmanship, and because the enamel was mostly blue, the combination of the two is called "cloisonne".

Hearing what Fang Ming said, everyone had a look of understanding on their faces.

"Could it be that I feel familiar when I look at this bottle? It turned out to be from cloisonné."

Sikong Zhe nodded. Although he was not familiar with Qibao Shao mentioned by Fang Ming, and he didn't have much research on cloisonne, but after all, he knew a little and had seen some real objects.When he saw the bottle in front of him before, he felt a little familiar, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't remember what it was. Now he understands it when he hears Fang Ming say this.

The Qibao burn in front of me does give people the same feeling as cloisonne, but it is more different, but if it is derived from cloisonne as Fang Ming said but has formed its own characteristics, then this There is nothing strange about it.

"Qibaoyaki? Is this the so-called Qibaoyaki?"

Wu Ze was also surprised. He had only heard of the name Qibaoshao, and he didn't know the specific situation. "Fang Ming, please tell us in detail."

"it is good."

Fang Ming did not refuse, nodded and said, "The so-called Qibao Burn is of course related to Buddhism."

"However, the so-called seven treasures in Buddhism also have some subtle differences. For example, some people say that the "Prajna Sutra" says that the seven treasures are gold, silver, glass, clam, agate, amber and coral; as for the "Amitabha Sutra" It is said that it is gold, silver, colored glaze, glass, clam, red bead and agate. The so-called Qibao in the book refers to an object fired from seven kinds of 'treasures'."

"Qibaoyaki is actually what the islanders call metal enamelware. At the end of the 16th century, the islanders imitated our country's cloisonné and unintentionally fired objects with their own characteristics. This is the origin of Qibaoyaki During the production process, a very unique feature was gradually formed: the body is made of metal, the shape is correct, the surface decoration is made of quartz as the main raw material and fired with other materials, and the fetal bone is extremely thin , the glaze color is very bright, and the patterns are influenced by traditional Chinese paintings and are elegant, so they often feel very eye-catching at first glance. This is actually an important reason why you think it is a modern handicraft when you first see it. gone."

"Actually, strictly speaking, Qibaoyaki is a false imitation made by the islanders imitating cloisonne—this is because they don't know how the real cloisonné is made, but because they have their own Therefore, it has formed its own artistic characteristics, and finally can occupy its own place in antiques."

Fang Ming recalled some materials he had read about Qibaoyaki before, and he remembered that he came to a conclusion about the formation of Qibaoyaki at that time: that is, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, but this dog still has a little It has its own characteristics, so it has value.

In fact, such things are not uncommon, and it can only be said that the people of the island country are also lucky, and they just make one thing out of random tossing.

The production process of Qibaoyaki is relatively complicated. There are more than 30 processes in total. Silk and spot glaze, as for polishing and the like, it takes many repetitions to achieve a better effect.

The types of Shippoyaki are mainly divided into "wired" and "wireless". Among them, wired means that in the process of filigree, copper wires are used to pinch out patterns such as landscapes, flowers and plants, and then glaze them according to their respective colors. The colors are rich, so the designs on the resulting shippoyaki will be radiant.As for the wireless one, copper wire is not used, and the pattern is made on the copper tire by painting.The wired ones mainly appeared under the influence of "cloisonné enamelware", while the wireless ones appeared under the influence of "painting enamelware".

"In Qibaoyaki, apart from the wired and wireless distinctions, there are also so-called transparent Qibao and penetrating Qibao, which only appeared later."

"Hey hey hey!"

Zhao Zhuzi suddenly smirked. He was most concerned about how much the bottle in front of him was worth, so he said, "Brother Fang Ming, how much is this bottle worth?"

Zhao Zhuzi's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. In fact, they didn't care too much about what this thing was. After all, the bottle in front of them was rarely touched, but since it was a leak, the most important thing That is, the coolest thing is to see how much it is worth.

"Not much, about 300 million."

"Oh...well...it's really not much. For you, Fang Ming, 300 million leaks can only be regarded as a small leak!"

Sikong Zhe shook his head, the expression on his face was more ironic than appreciation, but how could he be blamed? The things bought for 15000 yuan were worth 300 million yuan in the end, Fang Ming didn't say much, this is really a bit of a stinky fart.

"Ha! This... this..."

Fang Ming originally wanted to say that compared with the big pot of Yuan blue and white characters that he had picked up, or even the piece of mutton fat white jade that he had just picked up, the Seven Treasure Burn in front of him was not enough to look at, but in After saying it, he swallowed it back, because if he said that, he would definitely be scolded even worse, because it was even more stinky!
"Forget it, in Fang Ming's eyes, he doesn't look down on such things, so I just let me get this bottle, it looks quite eye-catching, and it feels pretty good to take it back with cuttings and flowers in it of."

As Wu Ze said, he reached for the bottle, but there was one person who was faster than him, that was Zhao Zhuzi. He stretched out his big hand, grabbed the bottle in his hand, and said, "Mr. Wu, you are not real, this bottle is fine. Give it to me if you want, I have a part to go out to pick up the leaks together today."

"Humph!"

Wu Ze glared at Zhao Zhuzi, and said, "Look at what you look like, thick and dark, and put a bottle like this in your room, isn't it?"

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately became happy.What Wu Ze said is really correct, Zhao Zhuzi belongs to that kind of black carbon head style, and the bottle in front of him is of gorgeous shape, and the style is too far apart.

"I don't care! Anyway, this bottle can't be in your hands first."

Zhao Zhuzi's words made everyone stunned, which was clearly unreasonable.

Fang Ming was the one who reacted first, he gave Zhao Zhuzi a thumbs up, and said, "Mighty! In order to reward you for maintaining Guxuanzhai's benefits, I decided to give you a salary increase. 5000 yuan!"

Zhao Zhuzi jumped his legs together, raised his right hand in a military salute, and said, "Boss Fang Ming! Don't worry, I will be proud of Guxuanzhai in the future, and work harder to protect the benefits of Guxuanzhai, and keep the benefits of Guxuanzhai. All black hands who try to get their hands on the antiques in our store will be cut off!"

Zhao Zhuzi's appearance made everyone laugh.

Wu Ze was actually joking. He really likes the bottle in front of him a little bit. After all, it looks bright, but it doesn’t suit his collection style very well. Just now, Fang Ming said that the bottle is worth 300 million and is I think it was just a little leak.

"Come on, I don't want this bottle, can't it? It's all up to Guxuanzhai's benefits."

Wu Ze gestured and waved his hand, looking quite angry.

Fang Ming naturally understood what kind of medicine Wu Ze was selling in this gourd. He smiled and said, "I don't want to keep this bottle. It's not very interesting, but I want to sell it for a good price. .”

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Si Kongzhe really knew Fang Ming too well, as soon as he saw him like this, he immediately knew that he must be planning something.

"Hey! We don't really like this thing, but some people like it. Since we finally got one, wouldn't it be too wasteful not to sell it for a high price? Such an opportunity must not be missed."

A strange smile appeared on Fang Ming's face, and the smell of conspiracy became stronger. He must be plotting against someone.

"Fang Ming, what do you mean?"

Zhou Yafang didn't understand what Fang Ming meant.You must know that the price of antiques in Guxuanzhai is indeed not low, but there is a reason for this. The main reason is that these antiques are genuine. If you guarantee the authenticity, the price will naturally go up, but even if it is sold in Guxuanzhai. The antiques that came out did not demand sky-high prices, but now that Fang Ming said it, it was clearly the kind that wanted to kill someone, and it was a big one!
