While the mirror is reflective, it also has a concentrating effect, shining on the wall beam, which is obviously much brighter than the light bulb on his head, but in that light, Zhuang Rui vaguely seems to see something. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Zhuang Rui froze, his body took a few steps closer to the wall, and then picked up the mirror, the mirror was slightly sideways, and a beam of light was reflected on the wall, this time Zhuang Jiao's hand did not shake, he really saw a trace of influence from the beam of light that was only the size of a palm.

In that beam of light, Zhuang Rui saw a Bodhisattva lotus sitting statue pattern, with a fluttering Guanyin Bodhisattva with a high head on his head, sitting on a lotus pedestal with a peaceful expression, holding a net bottle, with a kind face, closed eyes, and a compassionate expression.

This pattern is not very clear, just when Zhuang Rui's mood was agitated and his hand shook slightly, the picture of Guanyin Bo disappeared.

・This ...... How is this possible?"

Zhuang Rui exclaimed in his heart, he had never heard of a pattern that could be displayed in a bronze mirror?

Zhuang Rui immediately turned the bronze mirror upside down, and looked at the mirror carefully, but now the mirror surface is extremely smooth, and there is no Guanyin pattern, but ...... The image that appeared on the wall, Zhuang Rui could also confirm that it was definitely not his hallucination.

Taking a deep breath, Zhuang Rui calmed down, stared at the mirror, and as the aura seeped into the bronze mirror, a strange feeling rose in Zhuang Rui's heart.

At the moment when the aura entered the mirror, Zhuang Rui felt that the bronze mirror seemed to come to life, and the original subtle grinding texture on the mirror surface was infinitely magnified in Zhuang Rui's eyes.

Zhuang Ruixian, these textures are slightly different in depth, it should be these differences, so that under the reflection of the light, the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared, although he had never heard of something, but Zhuang Rui felt that he should have a great treasure.

Copper is the ancient mirror made of copper, also known as the bronze mirror, in ancient times, people shoot - to water to shine on the surface, after the bronze Ming, to scandium basin water to identify the shadow.

In pre-Qin works such as "Shangshu", "Chinese" and "Zhuangzi", it is mentioned that the ancients "in view of water" and the ancient interpretation of the word "jian" means "basin", so it can be said that the basin (jian) containing water is the earliest mirror.

With the advent of alloy technology, since the Yin Shang era, there is a history of using copper and tin or silver and lead to make copper mirrors, copper mirrors are generally made of round or square, and the back of the inscription is decorated with patterns, and the button is worn with a button, and the front is sharpened with lead and tin, which can be clearly illuminated.

The bronze mirrors of the Shang, Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn periods have appeared sporadically in Chinese archaeology, and they became popular at the beginning of the Warring States period, and the output increased greatly.

By the time of the Han Dynasty, due to the large demand for daily life, coupled with the economic prosperity after the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, the production of copper mirrors has produced a qualitative leap, the copper mirrors made excellent craftsmanship, thick texture, and rich and diverse inscriptions and patterns on the back of the mirror.

Later, it passed through the Tang and Song dynasties and was exhibited twice.

It continued until the Ming and Qing dynasties, with the birth of modern glass, the bronze mirror gradually faded out of the historical stage.

In ancient times, the bronze mirror has a close relationship with people's daily life, it is an indispensable living utensils for people, and at the same time it is a beautiful handicraft, now some large museums collect the bronze mirror, are well-made, the shape is beautiful, the pattern is gorgeous, the inscription is rich, it is the treasure in the ancient cultural heritage of our country.

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is a period of maturity and great exhibition in the history of ancient Chinese bronze mirror exhibition, which is the transition stage of ancient Chinese bronze mirrors from naΓ―ve to mature, and it is also the casting center of bronze mirrors, and an important period of migration from north to south.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, on the basis of the three dynasties (Xia, Shang, and Zhou), the bronze mirror had a comprehensive exhibition that developed by leaps and bounds. Whether it is the casting process of the copper mirror or the number of casting, it is much higher than before. In the Qin and Han dynasties, the number of bronze mirrors unearthed was the largest, and the use was widespread, and the Han mirrors were not only more in number than in the Warring States Period, but also had a great exhibition in the form of production and artistic expression.

As for the bronze mirrors of the Sui and Tang dynasties, there is a new exhibition compared with the previous generation. The tin content is increased in the copper alloy, and the texture of the copper mirror appears silvery bright, which is both beautiful and applicable.

By the time of the Song Jin and Yuan dynasties, there was no major breakthrough in the production process of bronze mirrors, most of them continued the style of the Han and Tang dynasties, but there were many teeth - some historical stories bronze mirrors and so on.

In recent years, the number of people who collect bronze mirrors is also increasing, and the price is rising year by year.

If anyone can find the bronze mirror in the story of the reunion of the two halves, I am afraid that the background of the story alone will be invaluable.

According to the exhibition history of the bronze mirror, Zhuang Rui can almost conclude that this bronze mirror should definitely be from the Sui and Tang dynasties, for the simple reason that Buddhism was introduced to China after the five dynasties of the late Han Dynasty and was exhibited in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

The Buddha statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva can be so expensive

The strength machine is expressed by grinding the lines with a bronze mirror, and I am afraid that no one will spend so much effort except for the period when Buddhism is prevalent.

It's just that Zhuang Rui doesn't know why this rare bronze mirror has been lost abroad?

"Running abroad to play with the treasures of your own country......"

Zhuang Rui smiled self-deprecatingly, although in terms of the preservation of cultural relics, those Dunhuang scriptures and bronze mirrors in front of him could not be preserved better if they were left abroad, because in the turmoil in the country that year, I don't know how many cultural relics were turned into ashes.

But psychologically, Zhuang Rui would rather have the treasures in foreign museums burned than see the exhibition of his own national civilization from other countries, because it is a wordless mockery, reminding China of the humiliation that China endured a hundred years ago.

"What is the price of this piece of metal?"

Zhuang Rui shook his head, and after retracting his thoughts, he raised the bronze mirror to Renault, he was bullying Renault for not understanding this thing, and deliberately said that the bronze mirror was a piece of metal.

"Bin, no, this gentleman, this is the mirror of your country, and in our country, there are also

The price of such a mirror made of metal is very expensive, and it is definitely not an iron piece......"

Zhuang Rui didn't expect Renault to know a little bit about this thing, but listening to his voice, he didn't know much, and said at the moment: "It's okay to think of it as a mirror, but can you reflect yourself from the mirror?"

Zhuang Rui's words made Renault a little speechless, although the bronze mirror was smooth, but due to oxidation, the mirror became a little blurry, at most it could only reflect a personal figure, and those metal mirrors made in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries abroad are indeed very different.

To be honest, the definition of foreign artworks, in addition to calligraphy and painting, is very practical value, and the back of this copper mirror is rusty, the mirror is not clear, one has no art appreciation value, two has no practical value, and it is all lost in the room, Renault really can't find the words to refute Zhuang Rui.

"Mr. Renault, if you think of it as an umbrella baby, you might as well keep it for yourself......

Zhuang Zan saw Renault standing there, his face was hesitant, so he threw the bronze mirror in his hand on the table, of course, not with the mirror facing up, because Zhuang Rui was afraid of breaking the grinding pattern of the Guanyin statue.

"If you can get the price, I'll sell it to you...... Renaud gritted his teeth and said a relatively high price point in his heart. "Friendly knife o euro?"

Zhuang Rui frowned slightly, Xun ∽ euro is about 20,000 Yao 6, not to mention the mystery in the mirror, just in terms of the quality of this bronze mirror, it is slightly expensive.

"Well, if you could tell me the origin of this bronze mirror, and suppress the price of the euro, I think

I'm still okay with it......"

Zhuang Rui asked this because he wanted to know the origin of this bronze mirror and see if he could judge the origin of this copper mirror.

Because this bronze mirror is so rare, it can grind the mirror into a statue of Guanyin without being visible to the naked eye, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Renaud shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir, this thing was collected by my grandfather and has always been placed here, but I seem to have heard him say that this stone statue is ...... with a bronze mirror."

Zhuang Rui was a little disappointed in his heart, according to Renault, this is very likely to be something that those robbers snatched from a temple in China back then, because monks also use mirrors, maybe this thing is made by the monks in the temple.

It's just that the Buddha head is really too broken, Zhuang Rui has no way to find clues from it, and there are so many temples in China, he can't find out which temple this Buddha head comes from.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhuang Rui took out 2od euros from his handbag, handed it to Renault, and then carefully placed the bronze mirror in the bag, and wrapped several layers of paper towels on the mirror, for fear that the mirror would be damaged.

After the transaction was completed, Renault also learned Zhuang Rui's name, and saw Zhuang Rui constantly looking at the Buddha's head, and said, "Mr. Zhuang, don't you want this bronze mirror?"

"Oh no, I'm not interested in that, but can I get a few pictures? maybe

I can introduce it to my friends who like it......"

The aura in the Buddha's head is already very weak, and there is no clue from the appearance, it is almost a broken stone, and Zhuang Rui can't look at it.

"Mr. Renault, don't you have any oil paintings or anything like that?"

After a long time, the objects received were still from his own country, and Zhuang Rui was a little unwilling.
