Chapter 255: Mallet Bottle, Snakeskin Blue

"What? Three million? Such a small brand, even if it is really from the Yongle period, how can it be worth so much money?"

"The Yongle Palace Buddha is a gilded Nine Palace Bagua card, if it is not seriously gold-plated and peeled, it can be worth more than one million!" Sun Zhongyuan said, "The value of antiques cannot be judged by size and material, so let's experience it slowly!"

"That's three million?" Chen Danyang was still a little uncomfortable, "I said, this is too fast to make money! If I don't pull you here, won't I be able to make money?"

"You saw the thief eating meat, but you didn't see the thief beaten. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info There are leaks, there are holes, there are gains, there are losses. Besides, value is value, whether you can sell it or not, and how much it can sell, is still unknown. Besides, if you don't pull me, you won't be able to earn it, not me. ”

Of course, for Sun Zhongyuan, it's just a matter of picking up leaks and not paying attention.

Chen Danyang looked at Sun Zhongyuan, "Pull it down!"

Sun Zhongyuan also looked at Chen Danyang.

Chen Danyang: "Do you think I can casually tell others about the changes in the five major earth qis? You have a special kind of luck!"

It wasn't the first time Sun Zhongyuan had heard this statement, he attributed it to absorbing the aura of the Fire Qilin Hip Stone.

But Chen Danyang said again, "Your ancestors may have been emperors!"

Sun Zhongyuan smiled dumbly, "I thought you were quite reliable, why does this sentence sound so much like a charlatan?"

Chen Danyang actually laughed, but didn't say anything more.

"Let's go, take advantage of this weekend, and take advantage of it. Sun Zhongyuan raised his feet.

"I said, it's too easy to pick up the leaks. Chen Danyang said as he walked.

"Is it easy? Why didn't the stall owner recognize him, even though he was an old man?"

"Is this boasting?"

"Count. ”

The two continued to shop. After shopping for a while, Sun Zhongyuan really found something.

This is a mallet bottle, more than a foot high, not a small piece.

The mallet bottle is a new type of instrument in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, which looks like a mallet, with a short straight neck, round folded shoulders, a cylindrical abdomen, relatively long, and a circle of feet. However, the only thing that is not like a mallet is that this type of device is generally a handicap, not directly along the neck.

The porcelain of the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, the mallet bottle is very common, and this type of ware is not very difficult to make, so there are many imitations in later generations.

But this mallet bottle, the glaze color is very special, it is snakeskin blue.

Snakeskin blue is not used to describe green, but to describe color and base. Snakeskin blue is generally a relatively bright blue-green, and the base is uneven, with thick and light, feeling like a pattern spot, with the feeling of snake skin.

Snakeskin blue porcelain is very rare. If you haven't seen it, what appears on the market at first glance can easily be regarded as an ingenious handicraft now.

Sun Zhongyuan said hello to the stall owner and picked up the mallet bottle.

Turning the bottom, no money.

This thing, there is a year limit, the earliest is the Kangxi Dynasty, it can't be earlier, the Kangxi Dynasty created a burn.

"This green glazed mallet bottle, absolutely old thing. Seeing that Sun Zhongyuan was looking carefully, the stall owner said with a smile.

Yes, the stall owner doesn't know about "snakeskin green", and he definitely can't see that this is a "Zang kiln" thing!

Zang kiln is not talking about a folk kiln, but a representative work of the official kiln in the early and middle period of Kangxi.

The imperial kiln factory in the porcelain capital was very perfect in the Qing Dynasty, and the imperial court would send pottery inspectors. During this period, Yu Henglang Zhongzang of the Ministry of Industry at that time should be selected to settle in the porcelain capital for the longest time, so it is specially called Zang kiln.

During the Zang kiln period, there was one of the biggest characteristics, which was called "all colors are ready" in history, and there were any colors. However, the most famous is naturally not snakeskin green, but cowpea red.

If it had been a cowpea-red mallet bottle, the stall owner wouldn't have been so inaccurate. Because there are all kinds of colors, it is difficult to grasp them all.

Snakeskin blue is also a representative color, but there are too few types on the market. Moreover, the color of snakeskin blue is inconspicuous among the many green and green glazes in history.

"How much is the minimum, I think it's quite bright as a vase. Sun Zhongyuan said with a smile.

"I think you're an expert, look at it and give it a bite?"

"There's no money for this thing, the things of the folk kiln, you still call it!"

"What you said is not right, there is no money, it may not be an official kiln. The official kilns of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty still have no money. The stall owner replied.

The official kiln porcelain is roughly from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, so there are many Yongle and even Xuande porcelain without money. However, in the third generation of the Qing Dynasty, the official kiln model has become customized.

But the stall owner is right, the official kilns of the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty did not pay off. There are roughly three scenarios:

First, because of excellence, a certain utensil will not be paid until the perfect test firing is successful. The previous test burned out, and the unqualified ones were crushed. But there are also qualified ones, although there is no money, they are also retained.

Second, some commonly used utensils are deliberately not paid. There is also a rumor in this, such as Emperor Kangxi, who was afraid that people would accidentally break the commonly used porcelain, such as teacups and vases, so he deliberately made the official kiln not pay for it. On the porcelain is the "Kangxi Year of the Great Qing Dynasty", if this is broken by the eunuchs, won't it shatter my country?

Third, there are some special sacrificial vessels.

This is about the situation of the official kiln firing the utensils of this dynasty. In the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, the official kiln would also be ordered to imitate ancient classic porcelain, such as the imitation Ru kiln. These porcelains were originally unproductive, so they were imitated and did not carry any money.

This mallet bottle is most likely in the first case. The mallet bottle and the snakeskin green are all things that were burned in the Kangxi Dynasty, and it is more likely that there is no way to try to burn them.

"You're right, but let's not discuss this, let's give the lowest price!" Of course, Sun Zhongyuan would not discuss this with the stall owner, since he said that it was "green glaze", it was that he did not recognize this as the "snakeskin green" of Zang Yao.

To be honest, although the stall owner understands porcelain, he really can't tell where this mallet bottle came from, this thing is shiny, it looks very good, but the modern atmosphere is too strong.

In the end, the stall owner quoted a price of 8,000. Sun Zhongyuan bargained, and the two fought for a while, and finally won it for three thousand.

This mallet bottle was big, and there was no suitable brocade box on the stall, so in the end the stall owner wrapped several layers of newspaper and tied it with a rope, and Sun Zhongyuan walked with a rope.

After taking a few steps, Chen Danyang asked, "Could this thing be really an official kiln?"

"Not only is it an official kiln, but also a famous Zang kiln in the third generation of the Qing Dynasty, and the disadvantage is that there is no money. But then again, it's not my turn to pick up the leaks. ”

"Zang kiln? During the official kiln period named after a person in the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, I only know the Tang kiln. ”

"Well, if you don't know Tang Yao, then you won't use it to visit the market. ”
