Chapter 504: If there is anything missing, please advise
PS: The second update is the same, and the convention asks for votes to support.
Fortunately, the plum vase in front of him seemed to stand the test, Wang Guan weighed for a moment and found that the bottle was very in line with the practical performance of the plum vase, and it was not a simple vase. However, the practical characteristics are just a reference supplement, and the real decisive role is the fetal quality of the plum bottle and the style characteristics of the painting.
Only by comprehensively integrating all kinds of details can we determine whether the plum bottle is the authentic product of the Cizhou kiln of the Song Dynasty.
"It's already deglazed, and you can see the makeup soil."
At this time, Yu Feibai said softly, his tone was not regretful, but on the contrary, it was an affirmation.
"Well, I saw it." The king nodded, understanding what he meant.
Because the deglazing and makeup soil is the significant feature of the Cizhou kiln, you must know that in the Song and Jin dynasties of the Cizhou kiln porcelain, the porcelain tire is not fine enough, relatively rough, and the local soil is not as pure and white as kaolin, so the more elaborate works generally need to add a layer of slightly purified and refined makeup soil outside the porcelain body, and then paint or calligraphy on the makeup soil.
However, it is also due to this layer of makeup soil, which is easy to swell during the firing process, which makes the glaze produce fine cracks. After thousands of years of changes, many porcelains will appear deglazed.
Therefore, the real Cizhou kiln porcelain of the Song and Jin dynasties, especially those fine porcelain that has been carefully fired, is a very normal situation to be deglazed, and it is necessary to be cautious and cautious if it is not deglazed.
A true connoisseur can judge the authenticity of a piece of Cizhou kiln porcelain by the condition of deglazing and the new and old of the exposed makeup soil layer after deglazing.
When Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were looking at the plum vase, Cao Xiang smiled a little and warmly greeted Pi Qiushi and Guan Yang to drink tea. Not long after, when he saw Wang Guan put down the plum bottle, he asked, "Little brother, how are you looking?" ”
"Okay." Wang Guan smiled, and then unexpectedly took two small bowls in his hands. walked back directly and put it on the coffee table, and gestured: "Mr. Guan, how do you sell these two things?" ”
"Huh."
At this moment, not only Guan Yang, but even Cao Xiang was a little surprised.
Of course, the surprise of the two is naturally a little different, Cao Xiang is surprised that Wang Guan obviously seems to be very interested in the plum bottle, but now it seems that he has no intention of buying it.
As for Guan Yang's surprise, only he knows it. Well, maybe you have to count Wang Guan......
At the same time, Wang Guan continued to smile: "Something is good. I like it better, you can make an offer. ”
"A single 10,000, if you want a pair, then it can also be cheaper, 18,000." Guan Yang said very boldly, grinning, his white and shiny teeth revealing a sense of sincerity.
However, Wang Guan was not so easily fooled, and bargained with a chuckle: "A pair." Five thousand! ”
As I said before, Cizhou kiln is a large kiln system. With Handan's Guancheng and Pengcheng as the center, it spreads out to the surrounding areas and forms a huge kiln system. Due to the different situation of each kiln mouth. They are all made of local materials, which also causes a gap between the quality of each kiln production work.
For example, the two small bowls are also gray and white, and the inner and outer walls of the bowls are painted with floral-like decorations. But. Due to the loose tire quality, it is easy to brittle, so that the glaze in the bowl has a little sign of falling off. Poor condition. Nature also affects its value.
Guan Yang is also an understanding person, but it may be that considering that Cao Xiang is next to him, he is not embarrassed to open his mouth and quote thirty or fifty thousand or something, but the current price has increased several times. If Wang Guan agrees, it is estimated that no one will praise him for his pride, and will only laugh at him for being a mallet.
"Brother, you're bargaining too hard." Guan Yang complained, but there was no anger in his eyes. After all, you come and go, this is the real purchase. If he made an offer, Wang Guan immediately agreed, but he had to wonder if there was any purpose.
Next, the two of them must have had a quarrel, Pi Qiushi and Cao Xiang naturally understood the rules, but they just drank tea with a smile and no intention of helping. Xu Qing and Baye may not understand, but under Yu Feibai's hints, they also remain silent and watch quietly.
Soon the results came out, and the two reached a consensus with seven thousand yuan. After Wang Guan paid the money, the things belonged to him. If he says that he will definitely not lose, of course he can make some money if he earns, and he is relatively satisfied.
Wang Guan was satisfied, but Guan Yang's interest was not very high, and after taking a sip of tea, he finally couldn't help but say tentatively: "Brother, in fact, that plum bottle is also quite good, so you are not interested?" ”
In his opinion, the plate and bowl are just a foil, and the plum bottle is the key. No matter how good the plate and bowl are, they can only offer 350,000 yuan if they die, but the plum bottle casually says 350,000 yuan, and it is estimated that no one thinks there is anything wrong.
But I didn't expect that there was obviously this thing that stood out from the crowd, but Wang Guan turned a blind eye, did he want to catch it, or was he really not interested? Guan Yang speculated in his heart, even if he knew that the first person to speak would definitely lose the initiative, but he still asked.
At this time, Wang Guan laughed, then shook his head and said: "It's a good thing, but I can't see it well, so I ......"
"It's not good." Guan raised his eyebrows and frowned, the doubts in his heart became thicker, and he couldn't figure out whether Wang Guan was cheating on himself or if he was really uncertain, so out of caution, he didn't plan to buy it.
However, no matter what, if people don't buy it, they can't force it to buy and sell, right? Guan Yang didn't want to force it, so he had to smile lightly: "That's no way, it means that your fate is not enough." ”
"Yes." Wang Guan smiled and nodded, naturally he would not make a random statement.
"So be it."
Immediately, Guan Yang got up and said goodbye: "Third brother, I'll leave first if I have something, and I'll invite you to drink when I turn around." ”
"Wait......" At this moment, Cao Xiang suddenly smiled and said: "Xiaoguan, your plum bottle seems to be good, can you stay and lend me to watch it for two days." ”
Guan Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "No problem, the things are left here with the third brother, and I will come back to get them in two days." ”
"Okay, walk slowly......"
While speaking, Cao Xiang sent Guan Yang out of the house, and then returned to the living room. As soon as he returned, he approached the table and picked up the plum vase to look at, and after looking at it for a moment, his expression became a little more strange.
"Third brother, is there anything wrong?" Pi Qiushi asked with a smile.
"There's nothing wrong with that." Cao Xiang responded casually, lowered his head and thought about it, then suddenly turned around and smiled: "Little brother, in fact, the plum bottle is really good, why don't you think about it?" ”
"Third brother, are you testing me?" Wang Guan asked, a little smile in his eyes.
"Hehe, I don't dare to take the test, I just think it's strange."
Cao Xiang waved his hand and commented: "You see that the plum bottle is really good, the shape is beautiful, and it is very slender." The flowers on it are all in one go, and the skillful painting is full of the style of traditional ink painting. Looking at the condition of the fetus from the bottom, the structure is loose, the panning is not fine, the particles are coarse, and there are unburned pores and iron spots, which are the distinctive characteristics of Cizhou kiln. ”
"The bottom of the tire is right, the glaze also has slight cracks, and the glazing, plus the details of the poems and texts on the bottle, it can be concluded that the thing is the Cizhou kiln plum bottle in the Song Dynasty."
Speaking of this, Cao Xiang seemed to be a little confused and said: "This kind of thing, although it can't be called a high-quality product, but it can be regarded as a relatively rare high-quality one that is well preserved, and the little brother is really not interested?" ”
"Intact? Not necessarily. ”
At this time, Wang Guan chuckled and said, "The things that are connected to the bottom are not intact, right?" ”
"Bottom?"
Cao Xiang's eyes flashed, and he asked again, "Why do you say that?" ”
"First of all, I have to praise the person who took the bottom is a master, the craftsmanship is very clever, and it can be called a seamless connection. There is no abnormality at all from the weight of the plum bottle, but there are some flaws in the joints. ”
Wang Guan walked over, pointed to the bottom of the bottle and said with a smile: "Third brother, look here, although it has been retouched, it has even deliberately made signs of glaze falling off, making the color of the upper and lower shades different. ”
"When people see it, they don't think there's anything wrong. But the person who took the bottom forgot that the natural cracking of the glaze and the artificial cracking are two conditions, and a little comparison can distinguish it. ”
While speaking, Wang Guan stretched out his hand and flicked the bottle, and said with a smile: "And when you listen to this voice, you know that there is a problem, the real intact bottle, the sound should be clear and transparent, running through the top and bottom." But now this voice has a somewhat dull and dull echo, which fully proves the anomaly in it. ”
"In addition, there is the difference between the old and the real old traces, and the sluggishness of the painting style, as well as the writing ...... No, it's not writing, the text should be the result of direct pasting......"
Wang Guanpin judged from beginning to end, as if looking for a bone in an egg, exposing the problems of the plum bottle one by one. Of course, there must be something to say, and the reasons are tenable and convincing.
The so-called layman looks lively, and insiders listen to the doorway. When Wang Guan was talking, Bai Ye and Xu Qing were listening, their beautiful eyes flashed and flashed, as if they were very focused, but in fact, they didn't understand, and they were confused.
It was Pi Qiushi and Yu Feibai, who seemed to be drinking tea casually, but from the smile on the corner of their mouths, they knew that they had understood. Cao Xiang was the same, while listening, he confirmed, and his face gradually showed a look of amazement. You must know that although he also saw some problems and knew that there was something wrong with the plum bottle, it was not as detailed and comprehensive as Wang Guan's analysis.
“…… It seems like that's all there is to it. ”
After pointing his fingers and talking for five or six minutes, Wang Guancai still stopped without finishing his thoughts, with a modest expression: "If there is anything missing, please ask the third brother for more advice." ”
"Omission?"
After being stunned for a while, Cao Xiang came back to his senses, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Little brother, I can't teach you, it's almost the same if you teach me a lot." ”
"Hehe, third brother, are you convinced now?" At the right time, Pi Qiushi smiled and said: "I said that he is very powerful, but you don't believe it, now you know that I am not lying." ”
"I took it, and I believed it." Cao Xiang sighed: "There are talented people in the country, and we are really going to be eliminated......" (to be continued.) )
