But before he took two steps, Zhao Yun suddenly asked a little embarrassed, "Brother Ang, can I discuss something with you?"

"What's wrong?"

"I thought, if there's something I like and I don't have enough money, can you lend me some temporarily?"

"Xiao Zhao, how old have we just met, are you embarrassed to mention borrowing money?"

Zhao Yun: "······"

"Well, if you can really pick up the good stuff, you can. ”

"I thought you were going to say no to it. Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"Mainly, I don't think you're going to run into good things. ”

Zhao Yun: "······"

"Haha, don't tease, let's go, let's continue shopping. ”

continued to walk, but I really didn't encounter anything that fit my eyes, Wu Duo didn't have it, and Zhao Yun didn't either.

However, Zhao Yun got his hands on a bronze nipple nail bell and looked at it for a long time.

This nipple nail bell is the style of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but if you don't look closely, you can generally know that it is unlikely to be in the future. Because such bronzes are not to be bought and sold in China, even if they are put out, there may be trouble.

The real three generations of bronze trade, even if they are not just unearthed, but have been unearthed long ago and passed down in an orderly manner, most of them are from small circles.

And the stall owner put out this bronze nipple nail bell, and he won't say anything;

Zhao Yun didn't take the bait, watched it for a long time, and didn't ask the price, and finally put it down.

"What's the matter? Do you think that the bronzes of the Western Zhou Dynasty let you run into them on the stall?" After leaving the stall, Wu Duo asked.

"This thing is not from the Western Zhou, it is from last week. However, the process is good, it is the old way of losing wax. Zhao Yun was thoughtful.

"You can also see the bronze craft?" Wu Duoxiao was shocked.

The lost wax method is one of the casting methods for bronze.

The lost wax method is also called the investment mold method, in simple terms, first use wax to make a model of the bronze to be cast, and then apply an outer model on this model, which is fire-resistant and high-temperature resistant. Then heated, the wax model was melted away, and it became an external "empty shell", using this empty shell, poured into the bronze solution, and after solidification, the bronze was formed.

Of course, there are some places that still have to be trimmed and polished in the end.

"If you know the bronze, can you still not know the lost wax method?" Zhao Yun responded.

"There is a saying that the lost wax method was first available in the Spring and Autumn Period, but this bronze bell is an imitation of the Western Zhou Dynasty. "Wu Duo interface.

"No, no, no, there was a lost wax method in the Shang Dynasty, but at that time, the block model method and the lost wax method were parallel, and the block model method was the main one. It's just the lost wax method of the Shang Dynasty, also called the burning method, because on some bronzes, you can still see the fan line. But in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the sophisticated lost wax method already existed. ”

"Hey, you know a lot about bronzes? You said that you are a primary school student, if you like jade and porcelain, beautiful things, this bronze ······ Oh, I see. Wu Duo said and nodded.

The master of this little fat man Zhao Yun should be best at bronze.

"Oops! Zhao Yun's reaction was not slow.

"It's okay, you've said it's a secret, and I won't ask you more. ”

Zhao Yun thought for a while, "Brother Ang, I'll go back and ask Master." You're also a master, wouldn't it be a good thing if you two could learn from each other?"

"Well, I also like to learn from the masters. ”

The two walked around for a while, and when they saw that the time was up, they parted. Wu Duo went to Daya Zhai to work, and Zhao Yun went to the Children's Palace to take a Chinese culture class.

Wu grabbed Daya Zhai and entered the duty room, but saw that Qiu Buluo was already there, and he was looking at something.

"Old Qiu, so early?" Wu Duo greeted with a smile as soon as he entered the door.

"Xiao Wu, come on, come on, take a look at this!" Qiu Buluo saw that Wu Duo was coming, and immediately beckoned, and then put the things in his hand on the table.

Wu Duo stepped forward and looked fixedly, "Old Qiu, Shoushan Ai Yelu?"

"Yes. This thing was sent by an old customer early in the morning. When he arrived, I hadn't even arrived, so he left his things behind, took the receipt, and went first. It was Huang Wei who handed it to me. Qiu Buluo explained, "It's not just mugwort leaf green, you take a closer look first." ”

The thing that was put on the table by Qiu Buluo was the seal of a Shoushan stone wormwood leaf green.

Shoushan stone, the most well-known variety today, is afraid that it is Tianhuang. In fact, among the Shoushan stones, there are many varieties, and the pit mouth alone is divided into field pits, water pits, and mountain pits. And the abundance of colors, not to mention

Artemisia is also a very famous variety. The so-called three treasures of Shoushan stone "yellow, green and white" refer to Tianhuang, mugwort leaf green, and white hibiscus.

"Shoushan stone, clean as jade...... The five-flower stone pit, dozens of miles apart, the red, the purple, the hairy, but the green is rare. (Liang Kejia of the Southern Song Dynasty, "Three Mountains Chronicles")

Artemisia leaf green is also divided into grades, and the precious and high-grade ones are as green and fresh as mugwort leaves, coupled with the transparent texture, which is deeply loved by literati and ink writers.

In the Ming Dynasty, the value of mugwort was actually above Tianhuang. After the Qing Dynasty, Tian Huang was promoted to the first.

Why? There are many reasons. But there is a very important reason that the artemisia leaf green, which is really produced in the "Five Flower Stone Pit", was extinct in the Qing Dynasty!

After the extinction of this pit, the so-called mugwort leaf green in Shoushan stone is a stone with similar texture and color in other veins. The quality is definitely not as good as the old pit, and there are a large number of light colors that are also mixed in. However, if the color is obviously light, connoisseurs will call it "mugwort leaf back green".

But Qiu Buluo's artemisia leaf green seal on the table is definitely of the highest grade, and at a glance, it is covered with pulp and moisturizing, not a new thing.

This seal is a square seal, about eight centimeters high, the diameter of the bottom is about two centimeters; dragon button, the joint of the button seal, skillfully carved waves; the dragon out of the waves, as the momentum of the desire.

Below the waves, above the seal, there is also a circle of brocade in bas-relief.

There is no engraving on the printing surface, indicating that the seal has not been used after the engraving button has been formed.

This button is very powerful, and the dragon's posture is exaggerated and exquisite.

Wu Duo took it in his hand, looked at this dragon button carefully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this thing doesn't need to look at anything else, just this carving, it can also be worth a fortune!

Even the circle of bas-relief brocade on this seal is so exquisite and vivid.

Well?

When Wu Duo was looking at the brocade pattern, he suddenly found that there was a different decoration from other places.

Take a closer look, among the brocade here, there are actually two small seals hidden!

Shang Jun.

"No wonder! the famous Shang Junniu?" Wu Duo couldn't help blurting out.

Zhou Bin, the word Shang Jun, the Qing Dynasty Kangxi period Shoushan stone carving everyone, which carved the button is often extremely exquisite, widely respected, known as "Shang Jun button".

Qiu Buluo smiled, "Otherwise, I can attach so much importance to it!" However, there are too many high imitations of the seal of the Luo Shang Uniform Style, so you must be cautious!"
