Chapter 785: I'm Really Just Planning to Buy a Pickle Jar!
Glazed pottery?
Tang Shuangshuang was stunned!
The fourth uncle's eyesight, she knows, the probability of seeing things is extremely low.
Glazed pottery belongs to a type of pottery, which appeared earlier than porcelain.
The difference between pottery and porcelain is that the temperature of the first firing is different, the firing temperature of pottery is lower than that of porcelain, the highest is not more than 1100 degrees Celsius, and the firing temperature of porcelain is more than 1,200 degrees, or even 1,400 degrees.
Secondly, the degree of hardness is not the same. Because of the low temperature of the pottery, the body is not completely sintered, the sound is muffled when struck, the hardness of the carcass is poor, and some can even use a steel knife to cut out grooves. The firing temperature of porcelain is high, the carcass is basically sintered, the sound is crisp when striking, and it is difficult to draw grooves on the surface of the carcass with ordinary steel knives.
In addition, the raw materials used are also different, pottery generally uses clay to make the body, and porcelain requires special materials.
The transparency and glaze color of the firing are also different, and the difference between the two is very large, and the craftsmanship level of porcelain is much higher than that of pottery.
Antiques are not the earlier the more valuable, although the pottery appeared early, but the firing is relatively simple, there is no climate, the formation of a famous kiln, the materials are very rough, even if the Neolithic period is unearthed, it is not very valuable, like those clay pots of the Han Dynasty, no one wants to put them out.
Of course, there are also a small part of the pottery is very valuable, such as the red pottery and painted pottery of the Yangshao culture period, the black pottery of the Longshan culture period, the white pottery of the late Shang Dynasty and the glazed pottery of the Han Dynasty.
Because the number is small, so there are fewer people who play pottery, just to see whether the car retains its value, the higher the market share, the more the value of the second-hand car will be maintained. If no one is sought after, the price will not go up, except for rare pottery, and the rest will not be cared for.
So the stall owner didn't care at all, and as for the many professionals who walked around here every day, he didn't pay attention to the pickle jar.
"Glazed pottery is not necessarily valuable! There is no market for it now. Tang Shuangshuang's voice weakened, and his eyes fell on the fourth uncle, hoping to get his approval.
"Qiao Zhi's luck is very good, judging from the texture and craftsmanship, this pottery should be the yellow pottery of the Qujialing culture period. There are more black pottery unearthed during the Qujialing culture period, and there are very few yellow pottery. "Don rides.
"How do you know that this is pottery from the Qujialing culture period?" Tang Shuangshuang said in surprise.
Tang Qi said: "You touch the inside of the pottery." ”
Tang Shuangshuang wiped it with her hands, the pottery was thinner than expected, no different from porcelain, she had also seen a lot of pottery objects, the current jar was very similar to the feel of fine pottery, but the pulp and glaze, she couldn't take it.
"Master Tang, what are you discussing?Did you find something good?" The man who led them into the ghost market and looked like a monkey walked over with a smile.
"I saw an object that looked like yellow pottery!" Tang Qi smiled faintly.
"Yes? Mr. Zhao is here, so let's go to him for an appraisal. The man said excitedly.
Tang Qi glanced at Qiao Zhi tentatively, "Are you interested?"
Qiao Zhi pretended to be stupid, "I just bought a pickle jar and identified something!"
Seeing Qiao Zhi say this, Tang Qi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to Mr. Zhao, he is a famous antique master in China." ”
"Is that the teacher Zhao Chen who found a fake in the appreciation show and directly broke other people's things? You have to tell him, I am a pickle jar, even if you don't like it, don't drop it, otherwise you will pay me a hundred yuan." Qiao Zhi joked.
Tang Qi knew that it was impossible for Qiao Zhi to spend a hundred yuan to buy a pickle jar, and when he saw him say this, the more he wanted to know if this thing was real!
In fact, he already has a spectrum in his heart, and now he just wants to find someone to support his inference.
Tang Shuangshuang was quite uncomfortable, and prayed silently in her heart, this thing was a worthless clay pot, but she was uneasy in her heart, with her knowledge system, she actually believed what the fourth uncle said, this jar is not simple.
Zhao Chen heard that someone bought a yellow pottery suspected of being from the Qujialing culture period for 100 yuan today, and he was also curious.
Waiting for the things to be placed on the cabinet, Zhao Chen took out a magnifying glass, walked along the potbelly jar for a long time, knocked it with his hand again, and took out white gauze and tung oil from the toolbox he carried with him.
After mixing the tung oil and water, Zhao Chenxin took a piece of clean white gauze and soaked it in it, cleaned the jar, and then wiped it off with a dry cloth.
Tang Qi exclaimed: "Teacher Zhao, I have seen it for a long time today, but I didn't expect that tung oil can not only maintain furniture, but also maintain pottery. ”
Zhao Chen smiled: "Porcelain can also be maintained like this!"
After a series of work, put it in the open area for half an hour, after cleaning, the color of the jar is not as bright as imagined, after a long time of oxidation and erosion, it will form a substance on the surface, so that its surface is dusty and dull.
Zhao Chen rubbed hard with gauze stained with tung oil, and the color of the wiped place became clear, yellow and bright, bright and bright, and light and fleshy, which made everyone exclaim again and again.
No matter what the color is, as long as it is pure to the extreme, it can reveal its unique charm. Yellow is close to the color of the earth, simple to the extreme, light, elegant, and pure, but it exudes a mysterious charm.
Zhao Chen picked up the jar, stretched out his hand and tapped it gently, and a pleasant sound came from it, "Good thing, little brother's eyesight is not bad, which is admirable." ”
As soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, everyone present was shocked.
What's the situation, this kid bought a pickle jar for a hundred yuan, and it was recognized as the best by a well-known antique expert?
"Mr. Zhao, you have won the award, are you mistaken, I really only plan to buy a pickle jar. Qiao Zhi knew that it was not good to be too high-profile, there were many people who hated the rich these years, and he deliberately showed an incredible look.
Zhao Chen was also crying and laughing, "Little brother, do you want to sell this yellow clay pot?" I can help you find a few collectors who are very interested in pottery, and the price will definitely make you happy." ”
Zhao Chen also couldn't bear it, it stands to reason that the pinnacle of pottery should be black pottery, and the number of yellow pottery unearthed is relatively small, which is rare on the market, so the circulation is not large, and it is not pushed by players.
But scarcity is expensive!
As long as it is confirmed that it is yellow pottery, and the quality is so good, not to mention in the folk, even in major museums in China.
"Teacher Zhao, something like this is hard to come by. Brother Qiao, if you want to make a collection room in the future, this thing can be used as a treasure in the town. Tang Qi hurriedly reminded Qiao Zhi.
A true collector will not easily give away the good things he has in his hands. Antiques have a price and they are priceless.
Qiao Zhi smiled, if he really sold this yellow clay pot, Tang Qi would probably look down on himself.
"Mr. Zhao, leave a contact information, if one day I want to make a move, I will contact you again. Qiao Zhi handled it more mellowly, not only unwilling to sell, but also gave Zhao Chen a step.
Tang Qi gave himself a wake-up call, after he had contact with the collection, he felt very interested, he visited Panjiayuan for the first time, it seemed that he was lucky, gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times, and investing money in antiques is not a good way to manage money.
Of course, everything must be free to be retracted, to be measured, too addicted, easy to lose direction.
Seeing Qiao Zhi put the thing back in the box, Zhao Chen's eyes showed a look of disappointment, but unfortunately this thing is not his own, this thing can definitely be sold for a sky-high price if it is placed in the auction house.
The stall owner was ready to pack up his things, sat for three or four hours today, and earned eight or nine hundred, although it was not much, but in the antique market, most of them earned a day to work, the kind of windfall thing, there were many years ago, when antiques were just popular, many new people came in to pay tuition, but in recent years, it is too difficult to kill people.
If you are lucky, you can earn three or five hundred a day, and if you are unlucky, you will not open for two or three days, and you have to pay the booth fee upside down. Especially in this "ghost market" hidden in Panjiayuan, the booth fee is even higher.
"Lao Fan, I heard that you just had a yellow pottery boutique on your stall. The owner of the stall next door took out his mobile phone, and someone in the group began to spread the word.
"Don't be kidding, you can tease me! That pickle jar, can it be yellow pottery?" Old Fan glared at the next door angrily and said disdainfully.
"Don't believe it, the group is discussing, it was identified by Zhao Chen, the treasure master, how much did you sell just now, I remember it seems to be a hundred, if I were you, my intestines would be repentant. ”
Lao Fan saw that the next door was not joking, so he turned on his mobile phone and looked, and sure enough, several Pan Jiayuan stall groups were discussing the matter.
"I was really leaked today!"
"Yes, it seems that a young man bought a pickle jar for a hundred yuan, but he didn't know that he was buying real glazed pottery. ”
"Do you believe that? People are pretending to keep a low profile. ”
"That person's name is Qiao Zhi, and he is a celebrity who invested in a restaurant at the Yenching Film Academy. ”
Lao Fan covered his heart, didn't say anything for a long time, and said to the next door: "You help me look at the stall, I'll go back when I go." ”
Lao Fan must find Zhao Chen and get the exact news from him.
Zhao Chen hadn't left yet, his mind was full of the appearance of that Huang Tao, and he was annoyed that he had forgotten to take a picture just now.
"Teacher Zhao, Teacher Zhao, let me ask you something. Lao Fan ran over panting and stopped Zhao Chenxin.
"Hmm, are you?" Zhao Chenxin looked at Lao Fan in confusion.
"Did you identify a jar just now, which I put on the stall and flowed out? ”
"You're the stall owner (stupid hat)!" Zhao Chen stopped, his tone full of regret.
"Is that really Huang Tao?" asked Lao Fan.
"At least from the conclusion I've come to, it's genuine!" Zhao Chen's eyes were full of pity.
", blood loss!"
Lao Fan rubbed his heart, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
"Call an ambulance!"
It's been a long time since Pan Jiayuan has encountered this situation.
