Chapter 1371: Western Xia Porcelain Hook
Tang Yi quickly hung up the phone.
After the separation, Jiang Yingnian also began to arrange related matters.
After this matter was decided, although there would be countless uncertainties ahead, Tang Yi was surprisingly happy. He seemed to sense that many things in the dark were about to have a result.
The past is like smoke, and the past is like a dream. This unknown journey, but it seems that a light is lit in his heart.
In short, he showed an extremely rare state of relaxation, and the whole person became radiant.
That night, Tang Yi slept well.
However, he still didn't feel that the heart of the golden goose seemed to be infected by his physical state, emitting a strong light, and the light enveloped Tang Yi, and then, it seemed to all enter his body.
The next day, Tang Yi went to the exhibition hall again, and he was ready to take a good look at those treasures. Previously, he mainly looked at furniture, calligraphy and painting, jade, and miscellaneous. But for porcelain, I just took a look at it. Porcelain is the most important item in antiques, and the next day, he plans to focus on porcelain.
Porcelain is fragile, and it is not easy to be transported from China to the Wa Kingdom, and it is not easy to preserve it intact. What's more, the Tokyo Historical Museum exhibits all high-quality heavy weapons.
As a result, in the exhibition hall, I met a lot of old acquaintances, and it seemed that it was about to end, and they all had this kind of psychology of taking a good look.
Among these people, Qin Lao and White are the most profound in their research on porcelain, and they have the most communication with Tang Yi.
Looking at it, the three of them noticed a piece of porcelain from the Western Jin Dynasty at the same time.
If you want to talk about real porcelain, it began to appear in the Eastern Han Dynasty. After all, pottery has all kinds of inconveniences, after the rise of porcelain in the Eastern Han Dynasty, pottery began to slowly withdraw from the main position.
The Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties followed the Eastern Han Dynasty. After such a long historical span after the Eastern Han Dynasty, in fact, only the Western Jin Dynasty had a brief period of unification, and the rest of the time was divided.
During the Western Jin Dynasty, it had just changed from war to stability and unity, so in people's hearts, they were very eager for the real enjoyment of life and also paid attention to interest. On porcelain, there are many special shapes that were not available before.
For example, animal shapes.
The porcelain that Tang Yi, Qin Lao, and White noticed was a tiger.
To be exact, a tiger.
Of course, there's an even worse term, the urinal.
This Western Jin Dynasty porcelain tiger is a tiger with its head held up, the tiger's mouth is wide open to the sky, and there is a handle on the back, which is used to carry.
"You Chinese people are very strange, think about it carefully, peeing on the tiger's mouth is more dangerous than pulling teeth from the tiger's mouth." White laughed.
Qin Lao explained, "The statement that Huzi is a urinal is controversial in academic circles. ”
"When I got up in the middle of the night, I was just about to release the water, and suddenly found that there was a tiger's mouth below, and I was afraid that I would break out in a cold sweat." Tang Yi smiled, "Mr. White has a point. However, no conclusive evidence has been found in this controversy, and there is no conclusive conclusion. Some people say that it is also very likely to be a water container. ”
"However, I have a tiger from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, when I first collected it, it did smell very strong, and I soaked it with disinfectant, and then brushed it many times before it was eliminated. It can be seen that at least Huzi has been used as a night pot. As for the original use, it is impossible to verify. Elder Qin then said.
White's eyes lit up, "Old Mr. Qin, do you have any plans to make a move on that tiger?" ”
Elder Qin laughed and pointed to the glass display case, "Unless I get such a better one, it will be possible to make a move!" ”
The three of them left the Huzi showcase, and White sighed, "I like porcelain the most, but the period of the Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties in China was not the most developed period for porcelain. However, I still admire this history and culture. ”
Tang Yi didn't expect White to have this situation, "Mr. White, you can study Chinese culture well!" ”
"It's all common sense! The Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties are a historical stage of extremely splendid Chinese culture, you see, Cao Cao, Cao Zhi, Wang Xizhi, Gu Kaizhi, Tao Yuanming, and so many cultural celebrities, aren't they all in this period. It's just a pity that the porcelain is not too good. ”
White continued, "Don't talk about this period, porcelain began to develop in the Song Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty was nothing more than secret color porcelain, and the famous Tang Sancai was pottery or immortal ware. ”
"Mr. White, you're speaking from a market perspective. In fact, the famous varieties of porcelain in the Tang Dynasty are not only these. The secret color porcelain you said is the Yue kiln, the so-called south green and north white, there is also the Xing kiln in the north, and then there is the Changsha kiln, Lushan kiln. This Changsha kiln has created a precedent for underglaze color! ”
"Oh?" White was taken aback, "Mr. Tang, if you don't say that I really don't know, I thought that the earliest underglaze color was blue and white!" ”
Tang Yi smiled, "There are too few such things on the market." And after all, it is not a top kiln, and it may not be as artistic as those famous kilns later, so the degree of circulation is not enough. ”
White stretched out his thumb, "Mr. Tang, I am indeed convinced of your knowledge." You friend, make a good friend! ”
Tang Yi waved his hand modestly and did not speak.
In the porcelain exhibition hall of the Tokyo Historical Museum, Chinese ceramics are roughly arranged in historical chronological order. They soon arrived at the exhibition area of the Northern Song Dynasty, where they lingered until more than eleven o'clock.
Next, take a look at it again, it's time for lunch.
At this time, Tang Yi was suddenly attracted by a pair of porcelain hooks. This pair of large porcelain hooks, with black glaze and flowers, are hung with ropes and hung in a glass display case.
According to the notes of the Tokyo Historical Museum, this is a pair of porcelain tent hooks from Western Xia! That is, it is used for hanging accounts.
Seeing that Tang Yi was paying attention to this, Qin Lao was also a little curious, and after reading it, he said, "This Western Xia is a very mysterious dynasty in history, and it has not been repaired, and it cannot be found in the twenty-four histories. I have unearthed some porcelain from Western Xia before, but I have never heard of any porcelain tent hooks! ”
Tang Yidao, "This has been recorded in individual historical materials, but I have never found the real thing, but I didn't expect that there is actually one in the Tokyo Historical Museum!" And in my opinion, it is indeed the porcelain of Western Xia! ”
Qin Lao took a breath, "The value of this thing is too great!" I walked past this section before, and I really didn't notice it. ”
Tang Yidao, "It's a pity that the market value is not high, otherwise the Tokyo Historical Museum would not be displayed together with some Liaojin porcelain!" ”
Qin Lao pointed to a black-glazed porcelain jar next to him, "This should be the porcelain of Western Xia, because I have seen similar ones in the Huhai Museum." It seems that among the people who forcibly seized the Japanese kingdom back then, there were still some people who knew how to do it. ”
