Chapter 300 Chenghua blue and white porcelain
Zhang Tianyuan doesn't like to count small money, if it was before, he would definitely have to buy two or three thousand yuan of this 5,000 yuan in one go, but now it's different, people worth tens of billions, he can't bargain for 2,000 yuan.
Besides, he can see that not to mention whether the plum vase of Yuan Qinghua is real, just talk about this jar, it is estimated that once it changes hands, it can be sold for one million or four thousand, and you care about the gains and losses of two or three thousand yuan with others?
"That's it, boss, I'll add five hundred to you, how about making an addition to that plum bottle?" Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile.
"You're a good businessman, okay, okay, no one wants that thing out there anyway, so take it if you like." The shopkeeper was naturally happy, in fact, he felt that the five thousand bottles were sold for Zhang Tianyuan, so Zhang Tianyuan wanted the plum bottle, he would naturally agree happily, and he felt that he had taken advantage of it.
The reason is as simple as that, if Zhang Tianyuan had to bargain at the beginning, the store owner would definitely have nothing to do, which would not be good.
Zhang Tianyuan didn't have 5,000 yuan in cash, so he traded directly online, and now the network is developed, and it is very convenient, he carefully put the jar and plum bottle into a basket given by the owner for free, and padded styrofoam to prevent it from being broken. That's when I was ready to leave.
"Don't look at anything else anymore?" said the shopkeeper to Zhang Tianyuan enthusiastically.
Where is Zhang Tianyuan still in the mood to see other things at this time, he can't wait to leave immediately. These two things in the bamboo basket may not be able to be bought by others hundreds of times. He only came once and was chosen,
Therefore, playing antiques, it is also necessary to pay attention to fate, no fate, then don't play this, otherwise it is useless to play bankrupt for a lifetime.
Many things in Pan's home are like this, and the space for flickering is very large, and sometimes this buyer is a seller. I don't know how much this thing should be worth, so some people think that there is still a lot of room for picking up leaks, but in fact, we see, there are so many old objects and good objects, after these years of Tao Chang, the good things that can appear in the Panjiayuan market are becoming less and less. The Panjiayuan thrift market should be called the antique thrift market now, so the people who go to Panjiayuan to buy goods, that is, buy a favorite, if you want to make a fortune here. I'm afraid it's not realistic, and besides, collecting this line is like this, sometimes you receive the goods. It won't be until your son and your grandson are likely to get rich, so ah. Here, I also advise everyone who goes to Panjiayuan to buy goods should have a good attitude.
Zhang Tianyuan's mentality in Tainan today is actually very good, he came to Panjiayuan just to play with Mu Ying, and he didn't think about buying anything real at all, but he ran into it.
Those who want to buy real things and buy antiques may miss one real thing after another because of their bad mentality, too anxious, and that is the real gain outweighs the loss.
After calling Mu Ying and Ouyang Xiaodan, Zhang Tianyuan sped up his pace after leaving the store, and almost took three steps and two steps to a place where there were fewer people and sat down.
Although I have money now, the joy brought by this kind of leakage is still evocative.
"Hahaha, two beauties, what to eat today, I'm in for a treat. ”
"So interested, what are you buying, why don't I look good?" Mu Ying is also half an expert, but after all, it is not as good as Zhang Tianyuan who has a six-character true trick, although he has not yet identified whether the plum bottle is real, but he has already identified the jar, which can be confirmed to be something from the Chenghua period, no lid is not a problem at all, and it is not a problem if there are cracks, as long as the thing is good, he is not afraid that he will not be able to sell it at a high price, not to mention that he may not be willing to sell it, after all, he also wants to collect a few good things now.
Because the plum vase is not particularly sure, even if it is confirmed, a real Yuan blue and white plum vase, this is definitely going to cause a sensation, so Zhang Tianyuan did not say anything about the plum vase, but pointed to the jar and said: "This thing is Ming Chenghua blue and white porcelain!"
"Ming Chenghua blue and white porcelain, isn't it from the Qianlong period?"
The shopkeeper looked away, this thing is definitely Ming Chenghua blue and white porcelain! Chenghua blue and white porcelain has a white, fine, beautiful and light carcass, and some are similar to being reborn. The glaze is white and fat, the enamel is unique, moist like clotted cream, translucent, if the light is see-through, the carcass can be faintly seen with a faint flesh red, this glaze is an important feature of Chenghua blue and white porcelain.
Not only that, Chenghua porcelain tire repair is regular, bottles, cans, pots and other vertical utensils interface traces are not obvious, plates have the phenomenon of collapsing bottom, bowls, plates and other feet are straight and high. The official kiln blue and white porcelain is divided into two types: bottom glaze and sand bottom. Mostly glazed. The sandy bottom is somewhat brownish-yellow. Commonly known as 'rice paste bottom', it is warm and smooth, no roughness, and is the unique style of Chenghua official kiln.
Although the Chenghua folk kiln ware is not as fine as the official kiln porcelain of the same period, it is the most prominent in the Ming Dynasty. The porcelain carcass of the folk kiln is thin, the texture is white and delicate, the porcelain process is good, and the carcass is significantly thinner than that of the folk kiln in the early Ming Dynasty. The glaze is smooth and thick. Tanks and other cutters pay attention to tire repair, the interface is not obvious, there is more sand bottom, and there is less glaze bottom. The heel of the bowl is thin and round, the foot diameter becomes smaller, and the heel has a faint circle of loquat yellow kiln red, with a glazed bottom. ”
"Is this the porcelain of the official kiln?" Of course, Mu Ying knew that in the collecting world, the porcelain of the official kiln was generally more valuable and popular than the private kiln.
Zhang Tianyuan nodded and said: "That's right, this is the official kiln porcelain! And it is the official kiln porcelain in the early Ming Dynasty, using Su Ma Liqing, a very unique green material." ”
"This jar looks quite small, is it really that valuable?" Ouyang Xiaodan is a layman after all, and what he asked was a little layman.
However, Zhang Tianyuan is in a good mood now, so he still said with a smile: "Chenghua blue and white ware is regular, solemn and round, and exquisitely handsome. The production is exquisite, and the inside and outside are the same. A change from the vigorous and bold style since Yongxuan. There are fewer large items with heavy carcass, and more light and round small pieces. Therefore, there has always been a saying that 'there is no big tool for Chenghua'.
The main types of utensils are bottles, cans, cups, stoves, dishes, plates, pots and some stationery utensils.
Among the cups, the chicken bowl cup is the first, and the others include tall cups, horseshoe cups, etc., all of which are circled feet.
Bowls include chicken heart bowls, pier bowls, lying foot bowls, and high-foot bowls, and the mouth has a closing, skimming, and flower mouth.
There is a large plate with a diameter of nearly 40 centimeters, and the skimming, circle-foot, and bottom of the exposed tire are black "rice paste bottom". The center of the plate is painted with dragon pattern or double lion rolling ball pattern, and the blue and white color is heavy.
Among the cans, Tianzi cans are the most famous, and the common ones are high cans, flat cans, etc.
Bottles include crane neck bottles, melon bottles, gall bottles, jade pot spring bottles, plum bottles, etc.
There are also boxes, washes, pear pots, trays, etc.
By the way, this is the famous Tianzi jar!"
"I see!" Ouyang Xiaodan looked at Zhang Tianyuan and said, "Your vision is really good enough." ”
"It's not that I have a good eye. It's just good luck, the jar I didn't pay attention to, it was the owner of the shop who put it forward, I just looked at it twice, many people don't know, there is no four-character paragraph in the Chenghua utensils, because the Chenghua porcelain has a very high reputation, there are a large number of imitations in the Ming and Qing dynasties, among which the Jiajing, Wanli Dynasty is the most realistic. Jiajing Dynasty imitations have 'Chenghua' double-circle six-character regular script baby play pattern cups and plates. There is no four-character paragraph in the book 'Chenghua year' in the Chenghua utensils. There is no four-character black ground green paragraph. All the books of 'Chenghua' and 'Chenghua Year' are forgeries for later generations! It's a pity that the shopkeeper doesn't seem to understand this, and mistakenly thinks that the real good things are fakes. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile.
"What kind of artifact is that?"
Zhang Tianyuan pretended to touch his chin deeply, and said with a smile: "The Chenghua section seems to be written by a special person, which is more standardized." The font is basically the same. There is a six-character double-line regular script of the Ming Dynasty, and the periphery is a double-line square column, which is written at the bottom of the cup the most. A small number of plates, bowls, and washers also have this type, which is generally a product in the later stage of Chenghua. "Ming Chenghua year" six sons, double lines, double circles, regular scripts. At the bottom of plates, bowls, bottles, and cans, there are many books, and a small number of books are in the center of the bowl. 'Ming Chenghua year' six-character regular script horizontal paragraph. It is mostly used in the outer mouth of the blue and white plate on the yellow ground and in the goblet. There is also a special kind of jar, with the word 'day' written on it, without a circle, commonly known as the 'sky word jar', which is the one in my hand.
Mr. Sun Yingzhou, an expert in ceramic identification, once summarized the six-character paragraph of Chenghua into six sentences: the "big" word tip round head is not high, the word "Cheng" is hard and straight to the waist, the word "Hua" is a dagger with a slight head, the word "system" is a knife with a small number of clothes, and the word "Ming" is narrow and the year should be realized, and the word "Cheng" is three nods and shoulders and waist. ”
"What about the folk kiln? Isn't there a four-character model for the folk kiln?"
"The blue and white of the folk kiln has a book 'Ming Chenghua Year Made', six characters and two lines, the font is sloppy and not standardized, and there are blue and white double circles of different thicknesses outside the words. Since the Chenghua Dynasty, the blue and white of the folk kiln has often seen the four-character two-line double-circle or double-line square frame paragraph of 'big next year'. In addition, there are also 'Jiachen Year Made' dry payment and silver ingots, Fang Sheng and other types of figures. There is a big gap with the official kiln, and it is easy to recognize. Zhang Tianyuan said.
"You said so much, how much can this jar sell for?" Ouyang Xiaodan really still thought about this, she didn't know much about porcelain after all, and she was a little sleepy when she heard Zhang Tianyuan say something more professional.
Zhang Tianyuan rubbed the jar and thought for a while: "If you sell it directly in the current situation, it is not a problem to sell it for one and a half million, and if you can repair the crack and find the lid, it will not be a problem to sell it for three or four million." If you go to the auction house, the price will be higher, and it is possible to double it again. ”
"Ha, no wonder the other party wants five thousand, you add five hundred to add a useless plum bottle, it turns out to be such a valuable thing, you guy looks like a decent man and gentleman on the surface, but in fact he is a black-bellied. Ouyang Xiaodan said with his hands on his hips.
Ouyang Xiaodan had seen Zhang Tianyuan's vision when she was in Shangpu, but when she saw it again today, her shock was beyond words, although three or four million was nothing to Zhang Tianyuan now, but it was still shocking to be able to make so much money by just walking around.
"Alas, people are more popular than people, you said that you are also visiting Panjiayuan, I am here to spend money, but you are here to make money, why is this gap so big?" Ouyang Xiaodan sighed and said.
Zhang Tianyuan didn't care about his words, but sensitively noticed Ouyang Xiaodan's last sentence, the contempt for the plum bottle. (To be continued......)
