Chapter 1033 TBD
PS: At least two more, ask for a ticket.
"Song Huizong's flower and bird paintings, the most detailed are the feathers and eyes."
At this time, an expert talked eloquently: "It is said that when he painted the feathers, he was used to using double hooks to be careful, so that the feathers were sprinkled and the shape was vivid and natural." Especially when depicting the eyes of birds, they are mostly dotted with lacquer, faintly beans, higher than the paper element, and almost want to move. ”
"The birds in this sketch of rare birds are like this, full of wonderful sketches with both form and spirit, which have changed from simple and sincere interest to subtle and flexible, that is, the shape seems to win with the interest of things, and the god seems to win with the interest of the sky......"
In the comments, Wang Guan and others also nodded. Whether the painting is good or not, everyone has an intuitive feeling, and naturally prefers the position that things are genuine. After all, the so-called suspicion is sometimes some people's speculation.
It is not surprising that there are speculators, both ancient and modern, no matter what it is. The appraiser industry is also like this, when finding fault with something, it may not be that there is something wrong with the thing, maybe it is to be different, or it is a gamble. After all, with the progress of science and technology, some things that were previously thought to be genuine may now be concluded to be imitations.
For this reason, some people are naturally opportunistic and want to gamble on their luck. If it happens that he is right, then this matter is his honor and pride, and he must be on his lips from time to time. It is for this reason that the industry is filled with all kinds of different voices, a lot of ghosts, snakes and gods, and all kinds of messy things happen from time to time.
Therefore, outsiders think that the water of antique collection is very deep, to a large extent, because some people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. After all, only when there is chaos can they fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits.
However, Zhou Lao and others are very ethical, and if they say something, they are right, and if they are not right, they are not right. Naturally, there will be no selfishness. After careful identification, it was unanimously agreed that the thing was genuine.
"Sure, that's it." An expert smiled and sighed: "With these three treasures, it is really worth the trip." ”
"You're asking too low, and the good stuff is yet to come."
At the same time, the expert next to him snorted and said, "See, Yuxi!" ”
The jade seal, of course, is not the jade seal of the country ordered by the heavens and the longevity of Yongchang, but the seal of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
After all, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty except for the twenty-four treasures. There are also many seals engraved. For example, Emperor Qianlong engraved countless prints in his life, and it is said that there are more than 10,000 pieces. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, most of these jade seals were plundered and lost overseas. In recent years, in the world's major auction houses, there are many times to see these emperor jade seals, but the price has been speculated very high.
Some people say that it is not enough to plunder once, and to see that the Chinese have money. So they changed their methods to carry out secondary plunder. Although this statement is a bit biased, it is not unreasonable.
However, the situation is better now, and someone has opened the door of the vault safe. Let everyone pick whatever they want. Such a situation is rare, Zhou Lao and others naturally will not miss such a good opportunity, their eyes must be as big as they are, and they will not let go of any precious treasure.
Decree. Naturally, it is a treasure, especially the emperor's jade seal, which is a rare treasure. Modern people may lack a sense of substitution. In fact, in ancient times, the seal was equivalent to an ID card, like a symbol of a person's power and status.
In some ancient documents, we can often see such an example, when a certain city is breached, the officials in the city are directly killed, and then the official seal is used to order the army and the people, and the army and the people are also very obedient.
Then there is the fact that a certain official died of illness on the way to his post, or was hacked to death by a thief, and then someone impersonated him to become an official, and there was an official seal as proof, but no one doubted it at all.
For such an example, it is estimated that modern people regard it as a legend. In fact, it's a real thing. You must know that the transportation in ancient times was very backward, although it was not as exaggerated as Lao Tzu's small country and widows, and the old and dead did not interact with each other in the countryside, but some people really did not go out of the range of 100 miles in their lives.
This is also the so-called local complex, and it is difficult to leave the homeland. The main thing is that once you leave, many times you never have the opportunity to return to the countryside. It is not uncommon for guests to die in a foreign country and be buried somewhere else.
The backwardness of transportation naturally causes information asymmetry, and in the era when there is no camera and telephone network, the sigil has naturally become a token to test a person's identity. Then with the official seal, it is natural to impersonate. In other words, the official seal is a symbol of power, and everyone recognizes the seal but not the person, and the seal is more important than the person.
It is to understand this, Zhou Lao and the others naturally know the value of the jade seal. It is not only the economic value, but also the traditional cultural value behind it. So after discovering that there was a jade seal, they all gathered around to take a look.
On closer inspection, I saw that the jade quality of the jade seal tended to be dark yellow, and it looked very clumsy. And it is different from the general square seal, but this jade seal is round, like a pillar. On the pillars, it is a simple carving, similar to a mountain, but the edges and corners are polished.
At this time, an expert picked up the jade seal and looked at it, focusing on the text on the printed surface. Although the text on the printed surface is reversed, the experts are experienced and can be recognized after a little look: "Wufutang." ”
"Oh, it's the seal of Emperor Yongzheng."
As soon as the person next to him heard it, he immediately came to a conclusion. After all, each emperor has his own private space in the palace, and then takes each elegant hall name. For example, Emperor Qianlong's Sanxi Hall is a collection of calligraphy and paintings. As for Wufutang, it is a place where Yongzheng usually relaxes and cultivates his self-cultivation.
"It's a pity, it's just a hall seal."
At the same time, an expert sighed: "If it is the treasure of Yongzheng Yulan, the treasure of Yongzheng's forgiveness, the jade seal of the king's difficulty, respecting the heavens and respecting the ancestors, and loving the people, it will be even more precious." ”
"It's good to have a hall seal." Zhou Lao said with a smile: "After all, Yongzheng is not Qianlong, there are not many jade seals he asked people to carve, and in the midst of the war, even fewer can survive." It's also a lucky thing to be able to see a piece now, so don't do anything else. ”
"Also to the ......" such a thought, everyone also deeply agreed, no longer entangled in the content of the seal, but to appreciate the texture of the jade seal, as well as the technique of seal carving. After all, the quality of the seal is largely reflected in the material, carving, and seal carving. Good materials with good work, this complements each other. If the carving and seal carving are not good, it is purely a waste of things.
However, the emperor's jade seal has no worries about this at all.
Let's not talk about the jade material, even if Yongzheng cleaned up a lot of messes in order to wipe Emperor Kangxi's buttocks, he was more frugal. But the identity is there, no matter how frugal you are, you won't lack a good piece of jade. As for the carving and seal carving, it is made by the court masters, and the seal iron hook silver painting, in the vigorous lines, with the beauty of free and light, very beautiful.
The royal product itself is a guarantee of quality. There is no doubt that something is certainly a rare treasure.
"This ...... Undetermined! ”
Even if it is a jade seal belonging to the emperor, but after all, it is only a first-class private seal, not a treasure of the emperor's edict to the world, and it is definitely slightly inferior to the calligraphy and painting just now in terms of cultural value, so it can only be included in the scope to be determined. After all, the amount of things exchanged is limited, and it must be cautious, and it is impossible to decide in a hurry.
"By the way, what is this?"
At this moment, someone found a strange thing next to the jade seal.
"What?"
Everyone also took a look, and saw that the thing was the size of a disc, but the material was not obvious, which was a bit strange. All of a sudden, everyone was a little more interested, and Zhou Lao directly picked up the things and looked at them.
"Huh."
After weighing it a little, Zhou Lao was slightly surprised: "It seems to be a tortoise shell." ”
At the same time, everyone also saw clearly, things are like disks, just now the center of the disk is upward, naturally there is no clue. But now it's back up, and everyone naturally sees some textures. Judging from the texture, you can know that the thing is a tortoise shell, and it is not a whole tortoise shell, but a piece of tortoise shell.
In addition, on the tortoise shell piece, there are some seemingly chaotic paintings, which are lines and dots, which make people scratch their heads and do not understand the meaning.
If it was before, everyone would definitely be puzzled, but after visiting Xu Lao yesterday, now that they see this piece of tortoiseshell again, everyone's eyes will inevitably have a little more different colors, and there is a feeling that there is no coincidence and no book.
"Is that it?"
At the right time, an expert whispered, "It feels like ah." ”
"It's not just like, I think that's it."
The bystander gestured: "Look, these lines and dots are exactly the same. However, the corners seem to have been polished, and I don't know if they were deliberately cut by man, or if they were accidentally broken and separated......"
"Whatever the reason, it's a shame that there is only one piece of something."
Hearing this, everyone nodded. It is a recognized thing that it is better to be whole. Although it is often said that the leopard is in the tube, it is also a helpless thing. Who wouldn't want to have it all if they had the conditions?
You must know that fragments are just fragments, and even if you can understand some information through fragments, sometimes there will be things that blind you can't see Mount Tai. It is precisely because of this understanding that everyone will sigh like this.
"Let's see if there are any other tortoiseshells......"
At this time, there are also people who do not give up and rummage through the various safes. Unfortunately, there was no gain, but the tortoiseshell piece was not found, but the man found another strange object.
"Come and see, what is this?"
Under the greeting of that, everyone naturally looked over, only to see that the thing was actually a stone, but on the stone there was a faint dragon appeared, and the scales, head horns, feet and claws, and neck hair were all clearly visible. Most importantly, the dragon pattern on the stone is not artificially carved, but a naturally occurring texture.
"Dragon-patterned Strange Stone."
At first glance, everyone is amazed, but they put the tortoise shell matter behind them for the time being.
After some inspection, you can also be sure that the stone texture is really naturally formed, and the dragon picture is natural and interesting. If it is placed in ancient times, it must be an auspicious sign...... (To be continued......)
