Jianbao life

Chapter 327 Identification

"This is... fire clay!" Xu Shengyan took a closer look, and immediately cried out in surprise.

"No way! Such a real thing is actually a fake made by Zhang Huo Ni?" an expert with the surname Qu said loudly with a face full of disbelief.He was very sure that this was a genuine product before, thinking that such a workmanship must be imitated by no one except official kilns, but the reality completely overturned his cognition.

Another expert surnamed Zhang sighed beside him. Although he felt that this was a fake before, he was not happy at this time. Basically, 90.00% of people like this high imitation have to drill their eyes. If things like this are flooded, the consequences are really unimaginable, and he will probably lose his job by then.

"Impossible... Impossible! How is this possible! How could such an exquisite pastel nine peaches and five bats dish be a fake!" The middle-aged man shook his head vigorously, and at the end he roared even more. Can not accept such a cruel reality.

There was silence at the scene. If it were them, they would not be in a better mood now than the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man was still punched by such a high imitation. Even if he wanted to laugh, there was no reason. On the contrary, It also made them feel sad when the rabbit died.

After a long time, the middle-aged man suddenly came back to his senses, and said, "I remember that Zhang Huoni was from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, right? That is to say, this thing is not a fake, but a high imitation. It is still very Valuable, isn't it?"

Hearing the words of the middle-aged man, everyone couldn't help but look at each other. The middle-aged man was right, but the key issue now is that the second generation of Zhang Huo Ni has appeared. If this plate is the second generation of Zhang Huo The mud has been imitated in recent years. Although the plate is very exquisite, its value is really limited.

At this time, Xu Shengyan said: "Boss Qi, I know that what you said is also possible, but you should also know that Zhang Huoni has come back out of the rivers and lakes now, so can you..."

"No, no!" Boss Qi shook his head repeatedly and said, "You just want me to do a scientific appraisal. There is no need to discuss this matter. I will not agree to it even if I die!"

"Boss Qi, for everyone..."

"no!"

As soon as Xu Sheng finished speaking, Boss Qi firmly refused, and then he put the plate back into the box, and walked out of the reception room in a hurry.

Seeing this, Xu Shengyan could only shake his head helplessly. Boss Qi is only an antique lover, not a real person in the antique industry. It is difficult to convince him with the righteousness of the antique industry.

"Boss Qi and I still have some friendship, so let me persuade him." The music expert said.

The reason why they want to take that plate for testing is also to hope that they can find clues to the second generation of Zhang Huo Ni, so that they can find this person as soon as possible. A little dangerous.

"Old Qu, I really trouble you!" Xu Shengyan thanked.

"After all, I am a person in the industry, so I should do this." Expert Qu waved his hands.

Xu Shengyan smiled and said: "Let's talk about this later, let's talk about these things first after appraising these things. Mr. Chu, the next thing is to rely on your sharp eyes!"

Hearing this, Chu Chen quickly waved his hands, and said with a wry smile, "Master Xu, you really flattered me. There are so many seniors here, how can I be called sharp-eyed!"

"Mr. Chu, don't be modest. This Yongzheng pastel nine peaches and five bats dish was regarded as genuine by me before. Compared with me, you really have a sharp eye." Expert Qu said with a chuckle. There is a trace of loss in it.

However, his behavior like this is also normal. After studying porcelain for more than 20 or [-] years, in the end, he is not as good as a young man in his twenties. How can he not feel disappointed?
"That's right, compared to my eyesight, I also sigh to myself, it's really the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead!" Expert Zhang also sighed.

"I'm just lucky, and compared to the knowledge of your predecessors, I'm far behind, and I have to ask you for advice in the future!"

There is a saying that a tree is as good as a forest, and the wind will blow it. Although Chu Chen thinks that his knowledge is not much worse than that of the sitting ones, when it is time to lower his posture, he should still put it down.And there is a saying that three people must have my teacher, especially in the practical industry of antiques, like some practical experience, you can't learn it just by reading books.

Seeing Chu Chen's humble and respectful attitude, everyone would smile heartily. Chu Chen has good eyesight, but is modest and cautious, neither arrogant nor rash. It's hard for such a young man to make people feel bad! ...

Fortunately, the remaining five collections are all rare boutiques. Among them, the previously controversial collection, and one of the controversial places, was just a special case at that time. Under the circumstances, the controversy was finally ruled out, and he signed his name on the appraisal certificate.

When the last item in the collection was identified as genuine by six experts, the person in charge couldn’t help but heaved a sigh of relief. It would be really fun if there was another fake of Zhang Huoni later, and it would probably attract people in the industry if it spread Panic.

Fortunately, this situation did not happen, so the person in charge quickly handed out the red envelopes prepared in advance to the experts.

When Chu Chen took the red envelope, he couldn't help feeling very emotional for a moment. He would actually get this kind of red envelope one day, and it was still at his age. This was something he couldn't even imagine before.

After the business was done, everyone sat down and drank tea and chatted, which finally diluted some of the worries caused by the "Zhang Huoni" incident just now.

Chu Chen took a sip of tea leisurely, and asked, "Master Xu, it seems that your shop mainly deals with stationery, right?"
"Yes." Xu Shengyan nodded and said, "Why, Mr. Chu, do you have a need for this?"

"Indeed, I'm going to buy some stationery for my father."

"Is that so, do you need all the four treasures of the study?"

"It's not necessary, I already have a pine flower inkstone."

Hearing this, Guan Guokang asked, "Xiao Chu, are you talking about the Kangxi Royal Inscribed Kuilong Pattern Songhua Stone Inkstone at the auction?"

"Hehe, yes, you always know that too?" Chu Chen laughed.

Guan Guokang said with regret on his face: "Why didn't you know! If I had known that there would be such a baby that day, I would have given up my old face to compete with you."

Chu Chen smiled and said, "It's a good thing you didn't stay, otherwise I would have to bow down." Having said that, there is something hidden in that inkstone after all, and he might still have to fight for it at that time .

Old Yue sneered and said: "Old Guan, come on, your apprentice was there that day, and in the end, Xiao Chu got it. I don't think you have the life to enjoy that inkstone at all."

Guan Guokang said unconvinced: "You old guy, don't talk about me, last time you fell in love with..."

Seeing the two exposing each other's shortcomings, and then even blushing, everyone couldn't help but smile.

Regardless of the bickering between the two, Xu Shengyan said with a smile: "Mr. Chu, then follow me to look at the few fine works in my collection and see if there is anything you like."

"OK……"

Chu Chen followed Xu Shengyan to a small room next door. Although there were not many things in the room, at first glance, regardless of the authenticity of the things, just in terms of craftsmanship, everything should look beautiful. It is a boutique.

Chu Chen admired them one by one, and suddenly a brush washer aroused his interest. This is a multicolored flower and bird pattern folding edge washer.

The consecration here refers to a painting method of porcelain, which is to draw a frame on some parts of the porcelain, and draw landscapes, figures, flowers, etc. in the frame.The frame decorated with brocade patterns all over the floor is called "Jindi Consecration", and in Ming Dynasty it was called "Jindi Box Heart".

This wash has a folded edge, a shallow belly, and a flat bottom.It is decorated with five colors, and the top of the folding edge is decorated with brocade grounds, and the inside is painted with two groups of zigzagging flowers and two groups of zigzag flowers and birds.Wash the inner theme and draw a picture of flowers and birds in travertine, with a golden pheasant standing in the center.

This wash of blue and white flowers is deep emerald, rich in color, full of flowers and birds, and the atmosphere is warm. In addition to underglaze blue and white, there are also red, yellow, green and other overglaze colors. In terms of painting techniques, black color single line outlines.At the bottom is the six-character blue and white inscription "Daming Wanli Annual System".

After carefully identifying the authenticity, Chu Chen asked, "Master Xu, how much is this pen worth?"

Xu Shengyan thought for a while and said, "Mr. Chu is a visitor from afar, so I won't say much, 62, what do you think?"

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Then thank you, shopkeeper Xu." According to his original estimate, the market price of this pen washer should be around 65, and the price Xu Shengyan offered was already very generous.

After choosing a brush to wash, Chu Chen bought another brush with red pine, bamboo and plum patterns from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty at a price of 5000 yuan.

The body of this pen is round, with a slender body, the whole body is black lacquered as the ground, carved with red carvings, the lacquer is dark red, and the finish is restrained.Both the top of the cap and the bottom of the barrel are carved with a flower. The decoration on the body of the pen is divided into two layers. The lower layer is carved with black lacquer bamboo clusters, and the upper layer is carved with red lacquer. Strong pine branches and blossoming plum blossoms.

In ancient times, pine, bamboo, and plum have the meaning of longevity and auspiciousness. In addition, in traditional Chinese culture, the pine among the three friends of cold weather is evergreen and immortal, and prolongs life with tranquility.Bamboo has the way of a gentleman, because it benefits from nothing.Mei Bing has muscle and bones, the leader of the group.

Especially in the severe cold years when thousands of trees are withered, only pine, bamboo and plum keep their own festivals every year. In order to praise their noble quality, pine, bamboo and plum are called the three friends of Suihan. The benchmark of outlook on life.Therefore, both the Ming and Qing dynasties liked to use this theme to decorate utensils.

This brush is a typical representative of redware in the Wanli Dynasty. No matter its paint color, knife method or decoration, it represents the level of lacquer making technology at that time, and the brush is a fragile product. This brush has been preserved in good condition, which is not easy. .
