Chapter 412 Pointing Out Loopholes
"Yes, please comment!"
Boss Gao is full of confidence in this set of tea sets, speaking of which, this set of tea sets has been in his hands for six or seven years, and it is the most precious thing in his hands, even those few pieces of Gao Bing jewelry can't compare to his love for this set of tea sets.
"Boss, can you just talk about it, Xiaocan doesn't know how many times you have said in front of me that you are amazing, and you also let me open my eyes well!"
Chen Lei also said, even Wang Jiajia also looked at Li Yang curiously, she knew that Li Yang was most famous for jade, but Li Yang's attainments in jade he really hadn't seen much, when he was in Hong Kong, Li Yang's performance was more of a porcelain level.
"Okay, I'll just talk about it!"
Li Yang sighed slightly, Boss Gao, Chen Lei and Niu Ling all sat up straight, Wang Jiajia didn't move, she was sitting very straight.
"Hindustan jade, then we have to start with Hindustan, Boss Gao, you should know what Hindustan means, right?"
"Of course, I did a lot of homework before buying this set, Hindustan is the name of the place in ancient times, that is, modern Kashmir and western Pakistan, which was the Islamic country of Hindustan in ancient times!"
Boss Gao nodded immediately, Chen Lei and Niu Ling's eyes widened, even Niu Ling was the first time to listen to Boss Gao explain the origin of this set of tea sets, and she didn't expect that the treasure in her uncle's collection was actually a foreign product.
Li Yang nodded and said, "Boss Gao, you are right, the most famous time for the jade was during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and it has a lot to do with Emperor Qianlong!" ”
"Brother Li, how can this jade still have something to do with Emperor Qianlong?"
Niu Ling couldn't help but interrupt Li Yang's words and asked, Boss Gao hurriedly glared at her, Niu Ling stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.
Li Yang didn't care at all, smiled and asked: "The fifth" brother and sister, have you seen "Huanzhu Gege"? ”
"I've watched it, I've watched it several times, but the third part is not good-looking if the actor changes!"
Niu Ling immediately replied, and Chen Lei also nodded, "Back then, "Huanzhu Gege" was popular all over the country, even Li Yang has watched many episodes, and Chen Lei is the same.
"There is a fragrant concubine in "Huanzhu Gege", do you remember?"
"Remember, it was because of her that Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei ran away from home, but that story is the most interesting!"
Niu Ling nodded immediately, for girls, such a bloody drama is the most attractive, Wang Jiajia also nodded, she has also seen this drama.
"Qianlong's concubine has a Xiangfei, who is a Uygur, the daughter of the Uyghur leader Ali and Zhuo at that time, the Xiangfei is just a legend, but she is indeed a person in history, in fact, Xiangfei is Qianlong's Concubine Rong, just because of his Uyghur identity" has made future generations have a lot of legends! ”
"There really is such a person, I thought it was a legend!"
Niu Ling was stunned and said in a daze, while Boss Gao looked at Li Yang thoughtfully, Li Yang said that these must have something to do with the Trace Dustan Jade Tea in front of him.
"Concubine Xiang is really there" When Concubine Xiang married Qianlong, she brought a lot of dowry, among which there is a kind of jade that is most loved by Qianlong" This kind of jade is thin, light and dexterous in the hand, and has a feeling of lightness like floating clouds. Qianlong deliberately gave a thin evaluation like a cicada's wings, although it is not so exaggerated, but it is an indisputable fact that the jade of Zhendustan is very thin! ”
Li Yang said with a smile, and Boss Gao's face also had a little smile, sure enough, it had something to do with this set of tea, in comparison, Li Yang's knowledge was richer, "I actually used Concubine Xiang to introduce this set of jade tea sets, and I deserved to be a master-level master."
"Boss", what are you talking about, is this the set in front of you? ”
Chen Lei was stunned and his eyes widened, while Li Yang chuckled and shook his head: "Trace Dustan jade is a big category, not just a separate set!" ”
"That's it, boss, you take it up!"
Chen Lei scratched his head, a little embarrassed, Li Yang said that these things were different from others, and he attracted them from the beginning.
"There are generally two kinds of jade artifacts that have been handed down from generation to generation, one is the pure Hindustan production, that is, the jade that was introduced from Hindustan to the Central Plains, and most of this kind of jade entered the imperial palace at that time. Concubine Xiang likes this kind of jade, Qianlong also likes this kind of jade, and many other people in the palace also like this kind of jade, plus this kind of jade is indeed very practical, so it was very popular for a while during the Qianlong period, and there was a second kind of trace Dustan jade! ”
"What's the second one?" Wang Jiajia couldn't help but ask.
Li Yang glanced at Wang Jiajia, smiled and said: "The second type is the craftsmen in the palace, according to the jade imitation of those traces, this kind of jade is also called, Xifanzuo,. In addition, there are some craftsmen from the Western Regions who made these jade objects in Beijing, also known as, Western Fan Zuo,! ”
"I understand, one is jade purely imported from abroad, and the other is domestic imitation, whether the craftsman is domestic or foreign, they are all made by themselves, right?"
Chen Lei said suddenly, and Li Yang nodded with a smile: "What you said is good, worthy of it, you are a person who works in a foreign trade company!" ”
Chen Lei's mouth opened, a little dazed, and then he actually looked a little embarrassed.
"This is the origin of the Hindustan jade, no matter which one, it can be said that it is the real Hindustan jade, it is a real old thing, there are not many Hindustan jade circulating on the market at present, and it can appear, especially if it can appear in sets, it is a good treasure of great value!"
Li Yang smiled again, and Boss Gao's face immediately showed a little pride, it was indeed rare to get a trace of Stanyu, and when he received this set, it was collected as an authentic work of the Western Regions, and there were even fewer such things.
"The most typical feature of the jade is thin, this jade uses water grinding technology, which can grind the carcass to a thin body, yes, Xikun jade is extremely ingenious, and the water grinding jade is as thin as paper, it is said. This is very different from many domestic jade at that time, at that time, the domestic jade mainly focused on quality and quality, that is, jade quality and carving, and few jade masters carved jade so thin! ”
"This jade is very thin!"
Chen Lei pointed to the teapot on the table, this teapot is indeed very thin, and you can even see the strong tea leaves inside.
Li Yang said: "In addition to being thin, another major feature of Hindustan jade is practicality, at that time, this kind of jade was mainly provided to nobles to enjoy the eyebrows, so practicality is the first!" ”
"This set is a tea set, so it should be a practical thing, right?"
Niu Ling looked at the tea set carefully, and muttered in her mouth, the tea set is indeed a practical product, "It is not uncommon to use jade tea sets in history, and there are also some fine products that have been handed down."
"There is also its selection of materials, the production process of Hindustan jade is complex, and the selection of jade materials is also very strict, generally the best white jade or green jade, for craftsmen, I like white jade and green and white jade, these are the main materials for making Hindustan jade!"
Boss Gao couldn't help but clap his hands and stretched out his thumb: ...... Admire "worthy of being a jade saint, listening to your words, it is better than reading a book for ten years!" ”
Li Yang chuckled lightly and shook his head: "Boss Gao, don't lift me up, these are all foundations, I'm afraid you also know this, I'm just briefly introducing the characteristics of Hindustan Jade!" ”
"Haha, Mr. Li, you are humble, I know this, but I only learned about it after consulting a lot of information, which is like you" can say so much just by looking at it! ”
Boss Gao laughed, and Li Yang shook his head gently, he only said that this is the characteristic of the jade in Chendustan, "But I didn't say that it was the characteristics of the jade in front of me."
"Li Yang, this set is a typical Hindustan jade, I think they all match what you just said!"
Wang Jiajia flashed her lovely eyes and pointed to the tea set in front of her, Chen Lei, Niu Ling and Boss Gao all aimed their eyes at Li Yang again.
Li Yang sighed slightly in his heart, in fact, he said so many origins, "I just don't want to really comment on this tea set, but Wang Jiajia asked, "I can't say it now."
"That's right, what I just said are the typical characteristics of Hindustan jade" is also a basic feature, but there is still a little difference in this set! ”
Li Yang sighed slightly, as soon as his words fell, Boss Gao was stunned, Wang Jiajia, Niu Ling and Chen Lei also looked at Li Yang with big eyes.
"Boss, what's the difference, isn't this a Hindustan jade?"
Chen Lei asked anxiously, he can be with Niu Ling, this Gao boss actually gave a lot of help in the middle, at that time, Gao Boss didn't know the relationship between Chen Lei and Li Yang, he was purely optimistic about Chen Lei, so he helped them.
For those who are good to him, Chen Lei is doubling the reward, Li Yang now means that he has the intention of opposing this set of jade tea sets, no wonder he is a little anxious.
"I'm not saying it's not a Hindustan jade, it's a shape of a Hindustan jade, but it's not a genuine product, it's a modern imitation!"
Li Yang sighed again, out of professional ethics, he would definitely not say that something fake was true, that would be deception.
This set of tea sets, in fact, there are still a lot of loopholes, Boss Gao mainly does not understand antiques and only understands jade, so he was deceived, if he really understood all the characteristics of the jade, he would not have collected this set of modern imitations as genuine.
"Mr. Li, could you please explain it more clearly?"
Boss Gao stood up, his face was still a little anxious, anyone who heard others comment that the treasure he had collected for many years was a fake, he would not remain calm, let alone the favorite thing in his hand.
"Boss, just make it clear, I think these things are in line with the characteristics you said!"
Chen Lei also hurriedly said, Li Yang looked at Chen Lei and shook his head gently, glanced at Boss Gao again, and said slowly: "This set of jade, many basic characteristics of the jade are possessed, but there are still several obvious loopholes, from these loopholes, it can basically be concluded that this is a recent imitation, and the time will not be too long, more than twenty years!" ”
"As I just said, the biggest feature of Hindustan jade is thinness, which has high requirements for craftsmanship, and usually chooses a whole piece of jade to make it, that is, any piece of jade is carved and polished by a whole piece of jade!"
Boss Gao nodded silently, he is a person who understands jade, and knows the characteristics of this kind of jade.
"In addition to the requirements for the raw materials as a whole, in the process of production, the process requirements for each step are also very high, any crack in the process of jade, that is not wanted, such as a small crack like a needle tip in the process of pondering, this whole piece of jade must be discarded!"
As soon as Li Yang said this, Boss Gao hurriedly looked at the jade tea set carefully, the cups were fine, and his eyes finally fell on the teapot.
Boss Gao did not doubt what Li Yang said, with Li Yang's current identity and fame, he would not lie to himself at all, let alone say that he was not sure, since Li Yang said so, then his tea set may really have a problem.
Only where is the problem, Boss Gao still doesn't know, this is what he wants to know most now.
"There's no rift, boss, are you mistaken?"
Chen Lei's head also leaned over, and after watching it for a long time, he asked Li Yang suspiciously, Li Yang shook his head with a chuckle, and did not care about Chen Lei's question in the slightest.
Li Yang pointed to the spout of the teapot, and on the edge of the spout, there was a small piece of something like a plum huā, and Li Yang pointed at it, and everyone looked over.
Especially Boss Gao, he directly took the teapot in his hand, looked carefully at the place Li Yang pointed to, and put the teapot down after a long while, with his experience, he could slowly find that this was a crack, and what Li Yang said was not wrong.
It's just that the location of this crack is too special, and there are some other decorations on the edge of the mouth of the pot, so that people can't find the crack at all, if Li Yang hadn't pointed it out, I'm afraid he wouldn't have found this in the future, and no one would care about this at all.
"This kind of crack at the edge of the mouth is also called the punch, the jargon has, people are afraid of turning around, the furnace bottle is afraid of the mouth, the saying that the teapot also belongs to a kind of furnace bottle, and the appearance of the punch along the mouth is definitely a fatal mistake!"
"Brother Li, is it this kind of crack that only appeared after the completion of this set of jade carvings, doesn't this have a big impact?"
Niu Ling suddenly said that her uncle has loved her the most since she was a child, and at this time she naturally wanted to help her uncle speak, and seeing that her uncle's favorite thing had become an elk, she couldn't accept it.
"There is such a possibility, but it may not be big, it can be said that this possibility is extremely small!"
Li Yang chuckled and shook his head, while Boss Gao nodded, the possibility of a crack in the finished jade along the mouth is indeed not very large, unless someone deliberately destroys it.
"Mr. Li, you go on, just now you said that there are many loopholes on this, and now you have just said one, and I hope you can point out the rest!"
Boss Gao looked back at Li Yang and said very sincerely, he didn't mean anything else when he said this, he just wanted to find out what was wrong with the treasure he had collected, even if it was fake, he had to know clearly where the fake was.
