Chapter 1145: What the Master Does
However, although the ornamentation is very clear, it is covered with rust of different colors and levels, like something that is in a pit. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The things that are born in the pit generally refer to the things that are unearthed, and the things that are familiar with the pit are the things that have been handed down.
This unearthed thing, no matter how much it compares, it can't compare to the heirloom thing. Even if it is bronze, although some collectors prefer green or black lacquer, there are even colorful rust colors. But after all, this heirloom bronze is very rare, and that kind of ripe pulp is still even more rare.
In addition, there are many restrictions on the purchase and sale of bronzes, and the unearthed things are not very daring to be touched by ordinary people now.
Tang Yi looked at it carefully, "Dad?" Where did this thing come from? The shape is a bit of a Shang Yi feeling. ”
Xia Ding Shang Yi ostensibly refers to the bronzes of the Xia and Shang periods, but generally refers to precious antiques. This is also because the bronzes of the Xia and Shang periods are very old and the most precious.
Moreover, Ding and Yi, collectively known as Ding Yi, are the most prominent instruments in the ritual vessels, typical temple vessels.
Yi was originally a wine vessel. Among the bronzes, there are many things that have both practical and ceremonial functions. But this phoenix-eared beast foot Yi is relatively rare in shape, and it is certainly not an ordinary thing.
However, this is only in terms of styling.
"This thing was received by your Uncle Zhang from Wudezhai. You also know that although he is proficient in jade, he is not very accurate in bronze. This one is a bit open, but it's like a pit, and he doesn't dare to look for anyone to look at it, so he thinks about letting you see it. I said that you haven't come back yet, so he will let me go here first, and say when you will come back, and when you will watch it. ”
Zhang Qixing of Wudezhai has a good relationship with Tang Zhongfeng, otherwise how could he easily leave such a "heavy weapon". At that time, it was Zhang Qixing who received the jade gang mao, and in order to help the Tang family collect it at a price higher than the market price.
Everyone has the icing on the cake, and there is nothing in the world to send charcoal in the snow. Tang Zhongfeng has always remembered this friendship.
Tang Yi frowned and said, "It seems that Uncle Zhang didn't collect much money?" ”
"He didn't say anything about this, he just said that you should help take a look. I didn't ask specifically. ”
"It's a very high-tech imitation. And this main rust color is made verdant and lush, with colorful rust color, such a master, except for Chen Chengzhi, I really can't think of anyone else. Tang Yi said.
"Fakes?" Tang Zhongfeng was stunned. Although this shape is rare, it is a bit open, and he originally thought it should be genuine. However, when Tang Yi said this, of course he also believed it. Tang Yi's eyesight did not allow him to doubt.
Tang Zhongfeng groaned, "In this way, your Uncle Zhang is not an outsider, let's go to Wudezhai together tomorrow morning and ask questions." ”
Tang Yi nodded. Yi Sumei saw the two discussing "business", but she didn't interject.
The next morning, Tang Zhongfeng and Tang Yiye took their things and arrived at Wudezhai.
"Tang Yi is back?" Zhang Qixing greeted him with a smile, "You two come together, I have to bring out the best tea." ”
Tang Zhongfeng and Tang Yi greeted each other with a smile and sat down. The three of them drank a few sips of tea before Zhang Qixing said, "Tang Yi has seen something?" ”
There has to be a rhythm to everything, Zhang Qixing saw them coming with things, so he naturally knew that Tang Yi had seen it, and the two of them came together, most of them were not optimistic. But he still served tea first and did his best to ask before asking.
"Uncle Zhang, let's talk about it inside, right?" Tang Yi responded.
The three of them were originally drinking tea at the Eight Immortals table outside the store, but when they heard Tang Yi say this, Zhang Qixing hurriedly beckoned his men to bring the tea tray to the inside.
After closing the door, Zhang Qixing looked at Tang Yi, "Not optimistic?" ”
After Tang Yi sat down, he lit a cigarette and thought for a while, "Uncle Zhang, this thing is really sold, and I don't think many people can see it." ”
This is naturally a fake, but it sounds good, and one of the implications is that the level of this fraud is too high, that is, I want to ask Zhang Qixing how this thing came about.
Zhang Qixing frowned, and then said, "This is sent by an acquaintance." This acquaintance, who is from Jin Zhen, usually sends jade to me, and things are generally right, so he has established a long-term relationship. This bronze Yi was sent by him last week, saying that it was dug up from the old canal. ”
Jinzhen is a town of a prefecture-level city not far from Shanzhou, close to the canal, and has a long history.
When Tang Yi heard it, the rust color of this thing, although it looked like rust in a puddle, was obviously not an old thing dug up by the river, in his judgment, it was something that had been newly made in the past two years.
This rust color is the key to the identification of bronzes. Because there are so few heirlooms, most of them are unearthed, and there is another one, which is salvaged from the mud in the water.
There is a kind of puddle rust, because it is colorful, so people in the industry like to call it colorful. This phoenix-eared beast foot Yi is probably like this. It is precisely because the puddle rust is quite difficult to imitate, and this piece is so realistic, Tang Yi said that non-masters can't do it.
"Uncle Zhang, let me take the liberty of asking, how much did you get this thing?"
"He offered a million. I paid attention to this, first gave him 10,000 yuan to set the money, and initialed a small agreement. Said to sell and sell first, and then contact him after determining the seller. If he can't find it, I'll give it back to him, and if it's damaged or lost, I'll pay him a million. Zhang Qixing said, "He hesitated for a while, and then agreed." ”
This kind of thing is not something that can be traded casually. Zhang Qixing's method is not uncommon in the antique shop, mostly to deal with some things that can be basically accurate, but it is not easy to sell. However, if this is returned, the 10,000 yuan will not be returned!
Moreover, this method is generally between acquaintances. There is another situation in this, if it is found and confirmed to be a fake, then the 10,000 yuan will definitely be returned.
"This thing, you said you want to find a clear fault, it's really hard to find, but there is a place, like a little tail left, but you have to use a knife to scrape off a little rust to confirm it." Tang Yi thought for a while and said, "You can't move now, otherwise you won't be able to say clearly." However, if you move in front of him, if there is no problem after the knife is scraped, it will be troublesome! ”
It's a tricky thing. If Tang Yi could only do this, Zhang Qixing would not be able to think of a better way. However, if it is really as Tang Yi said, it is not a problem to use the knife in front of others, then this million will have to be given to others!
Zhang Qixing pondered for a while, "That's it, Tang Yi, I'll make an appointment with him first to see when he can come." Let's talk about it later. This person has been with me for a long time, maybe he explained it to him, and he didn't really need to go under the knife. ”
