Chapter 480: One Bamboo and Ten Gold!(Ask for a subscription!Ask for a monthly pass!)
I have to say that the precipitation of history has brought extraordinary value to each of these old objects!
Just like this pair of Huanghuali Ruyi horn tooth horseshoe foot four flat tables in the Ming Dynasty, of course, a large part of their value also comes mainly from their material Huanghuali wood!
The name of rosewood must be known to many people!
Huanghua rosewood, the scientific name is fragrant yellow sandalwood, also known as Hainan yellow sandalwood, Hainan yellow rosewood (.). Huanghuali is the main material for hardwood furniture in the Ming and Qing dynasties, because it is favored by craftsmen in the Ming and Qing dynasties because of its yellow color, fine material, soft texture and aroma.
Huanghuali can also be made into bracelets, which have a fragrant smell. Very popular with the public.
Huanghuali is firm and dense. After long-term use, the surface of the appliance will naturally produce a moisturizing outer layer that resembles keratin, that is, "color paste". Recognized as the noblest furniture and wood carving in the world. Huanghuali grows slowly, although it is still rough after a hundred years, due to the predatory felling of the Ming and Qing rulers, to the late Qing Dynasty, the raw materials are increasingly scarce, and it has become rare.
Therefore, it is difficult to come across some yellow rosewood with a good age now.
Of course, in recent years, some people have begun to plant rosewood on a large scale in the South China Sea, but there is still a long way to go before it grows tall and grows into a mature tree!
。。。
Zhao Feng and Shi Qingxuan have a number plate today!
Soon, this pair of Huanghuali Ruyi horn tooth horseshoe foot four-flat table in the early 17th century of the Ming Dynasty was auctioned off by a middle-aged man at a value of 3.3 million Hong Kong dollars!
This price has exceeded the estimate by one-tenth, and few people continue to shout!
Soon, the second lot was carried onto the stage by several white-gloved auction house employees!
This is also an old piece of furniture!
The host on the stage also began to introduce: "The next one is the Ming Dynasty 17th century Huanghuali Ruyi cloud tooth head chuck tenon strap bracket head warping case. Dimensions: 267 x 50 x 89 cm, estimate: HK$3,500,000 - 4,500,000. ”
"The warped head case is long but not wide, the two ends are upturned, and it has always been loved by famous families in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The carving of this case is exquisite, and the wood grain of the panel is beautiful, which is particularly outstanding. The standing living room of the warping head case, leaning against the south wall, can display strange stones, flowers, antiques, etc., adding elegance when the host meets guests. ”
"The literati of the prosperous era of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the aesthetic taste of the family of Shi Dafu made the Huanghuali furniture of this period outstanding, both from the point of view of artistic aesthetics and artificial science are impeccable, and can be called the treasures of the world's furniture art. Huanghuali wood is not quiet or noisy, and the texture is like flowing water, hidden or visible. So, this one is also a rare boutique!"
The host is a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body!
He has been working in the position of host for nearly fifteen years, and when he swept his eyes, he felt that there were already many people in the audience who were ready to move!
So he immediately stopped talking nonsense, and said directly: "The starting price of this Ming 17th century Huanghuali Ruyi Cloud Tooth Head Chuck Tenon Belt Bracket Head Case is 2.8 million Hong Kong dollars, and the price increase shall not be less than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars each time!"
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone immediately raised his card to increase the price!
After three or four people took turns to raise their cards, suddenly an old gentleman who looked quite thin raised his cards and said directly: "I will pay 3.2 million Hong Kong dollars!"
It increased by more than 300,000 Hong Kong dollars at once, and immediately many people in the hall who were interested in this case turned their eyes to this old gentleman! However, where is the appraisal of the auction house!
The idea that this old gentleman is ready to use a large price increase to make other buyers withdraw is impossible to achieve!
A few breaths fell from the old gentleman's voice, and immediately some people raised their cards!
For a while, the auction hall was really lively!
。。。
Zhao Feng, who was sitting in the middle three or four rows, was chatting and discussing with Shi Qingxuan, Ye Xin, and Yang Zixin! Ye Xin and Yang Zixin participated in such an auction for the first time!
Actually, it's a bit curious!
Zhao Feng didn't hold the two of them back, signaling that the two of them could try to raise their cards to participate in the auction!
However, Ye Xin and Yang Zixin don't like this kind of furniture very much!
That's why I didn't participate in the filming!
After this 17th century Huanghuali Ruyi Cloud Tooth Head Chuck Tenon Belt Bracket Head Case Successfully Auctioned for 4.38 Million Hong Kong Dollars!
Next are the Ming Dynasty's Huanghuali carved dragon and phoenix flower and bird pattern tunic low table with legs and legs half table and the Ming Dynasty's 17th century Huanghuali 14 drawer medicine box, which were auctioned for 1.78 million yuan and 2.45 million yuan respectively!
The auction price of these two auction items has increased by almost one-fifth compared with the estimate, which is quite surprising to everyone!
Zhao Feng didn't even chase his head and glanced sideways at the old gentleman with glasses who made the bid!
Seeing this, Shi Qingxuan specially introduced Zhao Feng, this old gentleman is the inheritor of a century-old pharmacy in Xiangjiang, and this ancient medicine box has indeed scratched his itch, so it is understandable that the bid is so high!
。。。。。。
With the auction of furniture has come to an end!
The next step is to enter the auction more intensely!
After a short break, the fifth lot was brought up by the auction house staff!
Seeing this auction item that had not yet been opened, Zhao Feng and Shi Qingxuan were both in good spirits!
It can be seen from the painting scroll that this lot must be a category of ancient domestic calligraphy and painting!
When the auctioneer signaled his assistant to open the scroll, sure enough, what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a lifelike painting of bamboo!
The host also began to introduce: "Many of you will inevitably have a sense of familiarity when you look at this painting!
This painting is Xia Chang's "Ink Bamboo"! Estimate: HK$10,000,000 — 15,000,000!"
"Xia Chang (1388-1470) of the Ming Dynasty, his first surname was Zhu, and his name was Chang. The word Zhongzhao, the number is free, and the name is Yufeng, Kunshan people, and Kunshan is rich in bamboo and wood. Xia Chang had a rough life when he was young, but in the year of Yongle Yiwei (1415), that is, before he was 30 years old, he was admitted to the Jinshi and served in the Hanlin Academy. In addition to being famous for painting bamboo, Xia Chang is also good at regular script. ”
Xia Chang made bamboo into the painting, the law is rigorous, handed down to the world, taken from the Song and Yuan dynasties of the two generations of famous artists, on the basis of the understanding and observation of bamboo in the natural state, purely written in ink, with "meaning" to paint, self-contained, connecting the previous and the next. "Wujun Danqing Zhi" contains the people at the time who said: "Xia Qing is a bamboo, Xiliang ten ingots of gold" ......"
Zhao Feng listened carefully to the host this time!
After thinking about it, Zhao Feng motioned to Ye Xin and Yang Zixin to raise their cards!
Ye Xin and Yang Zixin held a sign as if they were afraid of spending money, and they never raised it!
Xia Chang's bamboo is indeed very collectible, the ancients said that one bamboo and ten gold, but also shows the value of this painting, this painting should be for the two to practice their hands, by the way sent down as a collection is also good!
