Fu Mancang also looked at Yu Yao, "Listen to what you mean, is it already decided?"

"How can you talk about it as a final conclusion if you have your own opinion. I just think that Mr. Fu attaches great importance to this thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"You just said that you asked two friends to see it, although they are both masters, but the Guardian Auction Company is even more mastery, but you don't look for someone from the company to see! Of course, this is your private collection, and the distinction between public and private may also be a reason, but only by paying attention to it, will the less people know about it, the better. Since you attach importance to it, you must have studied a lot, so you will probably stick to your final opinion. ”

After Yu Yao finished speaking, Fu Mancang couldn't help loosening his tie, "Mr. Yu, I think, this is, one piece, official kiln!"

Yu Yao smiled slightly, "Hongwuguan Kiln?"

"You think so too?" Fumancang smiled slightly. This shows that in just a few ups and downs, he has recognized Yu Yao's vision.

The porcelain organ kiln system was formally formed in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the porcelain organ kiln was established since the beginning of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. Hongwu is the name of Zhu Yuanzhang, and Yongle Zhu Di is the son of Zhu Yuanzhang. Hongwuguan kiln porcelain, at present, has not been found and confirmed to have been paid.

This goblet is no exception.

At the same time, Hongwu porcelain inherited the Yuan Dynasty, the next Qi Yongle, and there was a short-lived Jianwen Emperor in the middle;

Hongwuguan kiln, the most famous variety is glaze red, blue and white ware is also more typical. However, it is indeed rare for blue-glazed porcelain to survive to this day.

This blue-glazed goblet is very similar to the Longquan kiln in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, but Yu Yao ruled it out. Although I don't know if Fu Mancang's so-called two master friends are really high, the difference is very subtle, and it is indeed not easy to identify.

The Hongwuguan kiln, on the whole, is not much different from the Yuan Dynasty in terms of vessel type, tire glaze, and ornamentation. The carcass is relatively thick and heavy, even if it is a small device. In addition, the characteristics of the dragon pattern are not as smart as those of the Yuan Dynasty, and they are not as strong as the Yongle Dynasty.

In this goblet, these two points are indeed basically in line.

Yu Yao listened to what Fu Mancang said, nodded, and then said the above two points, "Mr. Fu thinks it is Hongwuguan Kiln based on this, right?"

"Also, the five-claw ornament and characteristics of this dragon are also in line with the Hongwu style. Fumancang added.

Yu Yao nodded again, this Fu Mancang still has a bit of Taoism, "What about the glaze?"

"The glaze color is indeed like the Longquan kiln in the early Ming Dynasty, but the green is more luster, and the jade texture is stronger. So, it's not Longquan kiln. ”

"Actually, the Yongle Dynasty also has green glaze things, and in terms of glaze color alone, there is basically no difference from the Hongwu Dynasty. And some conventional types of blue-glazed porcelain, Hongwu and Yongle, are the same. ”

Fu Mancang heard it, "Could it be that you mean that this is the Yongle official kiln?"

"Let me put it another way, if this is a high imitation, do you think he wants to imitate Hongwu? or does he want to imitate Yongle?"

"Gao Fang?" Fu Mancang opened his mouth wide, "Don't tell me it's your verdict!"

Yu Yao smiled, "The tall cups of the Yongle Dynasty are very famous, but most of them are blue and white vessels. On the market, there are too many things that imitate Yongle blue and white goblets! However, the porcelain with blue glaze from Yongle official kiln is not the mainstream, so it is difficult to see high imitations. Although it is not the mainstream, the price of the genuine product is not low, as early as more than ten years ago, a Yongle official kiln glazed palace bowl was auctioned for more than two million. ”

"Mr. Yu, what do you want to say? The characteristics of this dragon pattern must not be Yongle's!" Fu Mancang seemed to be a little angry, and changed his previous easy-going state.

Cai Zhihuang smiled and waved his hand, "Mr. Fu, you should listen to him first! The appraisal is originally scientific and rigorous, and you can't just say what is good." ”

"That's right. But can you be as clear as possible?"

"This is a high imitation, and it is a high imitation in recent years!" Yu Yao directly concluded.

Fu Mancang was a little stunned for a moment and didn't answer.

Yu Yao then analyzed the dragon pattern that Fu Mancang said: "You are right, this dragon pattern is indeed more like Hongwu. But in reality, it can be caused by a lack of skill. Yongle's vigor and vigor are difficult to imitate in place, and the difference between the pools is a bit like the characteristics of Hongwu, but under a closer look, it lacks the simplicity and majesty of Hongwu. The dragon pattern of the Hongwu and Yongle dynasties itself has inheritance and similarities. ”

Fu Mancang's eyes widened, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything immediately, his two thumbs pressed each other, and then he said in a deep voice: "If it's really a high imitation, imitation Yongle or imitation Hongwu, it's meaningless!"

"That's true. But I'm analyzing it in advance so that you can get a clearer picture of your motivations. ”

"Regarding the dragon pattern, your identification is ambiguous, is there any other evidence?"

From Fu Mancang's eyes, he can also see strong doubts.

"Fetus!" Yu Yao said succinctly.

Fu Mancang pondered for a while, and seemed to understand a little, "You mean it's too white?"

"No! white is not a problem. Hongwu official kiln and even Yongle official kiln, although the use is still Macang soil, but the official kiln is the official kiln, must be repeatedly washed, with the same as the Macang soil to burn out the white tire. ”

Cai Zhihuang couldn't help but interject at this time, "That's the problem of delicacy??"

"It's too fine!" Yu Yao pointed to the goblet, "The hemp cang soil can be washed very white, but it can't be washed so delicately. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the official kiln mainly used Macang soil, and after the middle period, the source of Macang soil was gradually exhausted, and kaolin with better color was found, so kaolin was turned to use. The level of this high imitator is not low, and he will not know this, so he does not completely use kaolin for tires, and also adds a treatment that imitates the characteristics of Macang soil. ”

At this time, Fu Mancang couldn't help but pick up this goblet, Yu Yao pointed out, "This difference is difficult to describe in words, you can see the bottom of the tire, and then look at the edge of the cup, the place where the glaze is thin and slightly exposed, and refer to the handover of the glaze and the tire, you can also feel it further." ”

Fu Mancang nodded unconsciously, and then took out a folding magnifying glass from his pocket and looked at it repeatedly.

Yu Yao and Cai Zhihuang looked at each other and exchanged glances, but neither of them spoke.

Half an hour later, Fu Mancang suddenly picked up the goblet and fell heavily to the ground!

With a "snap", it fell apart.

Yu Yao and Cai Zhihuang couldn't help but be surprised, and Cai Zhihuang reacted even more, and stood up directly, "Mr. Fu!"

Fu Mancang waved his hand slightly, picked up a piece of porcelain instead, and then carefully looked at the fetal quality of the broken mouth with a magnifying glass.

"See it more clearly! Yes! Yes, yes!" Fumancang finished speaking, putting down the magnifying glass and porcelain plate, thoughtful.

"Mr. Fu, why bother? Gao Fang is also a work of art, at least it can be regarded as a specimen. Yu Yao said softly.

"The cup itself is a work of art, but when it falls into this cunning market, it becomes a murder weapon. Fu Mancang looked at Yu Yao and suddenly smiled, "Dear Mr. Yu, you are really a master among masters!"
