Chapter 151 [Ru Kiln Azure Glaze]

Qin Fan knew that this Lei Ye was interested in taking advantage of Old Man Meng's face and taking himself in front of so many people, at this time, he naturally would not refuse Lei Ye's kindness, and sat generously in the vacant seat next to Lei Ye. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Su girl, Qin boy was brought by you, so you can sit next to him."

"Okay, Master Lei."

Su Yanran had a shallow smile on her face, but her eyes were full of surprise when she looked at Qin Fan. Originally, with her qualifications and background, she could only sit on the edge of the host in this dinner, but she didn't expect that in the end, she was still stained with Qin Fan's light before she could sit in the VIP position.

Just after the two of them sat down, Chen Hengde obviously felt that the wind direction at the dinner table suddenly changed, and Qin Fan and Su Yanran turned out to be important figures that everyone here should pay attention to.

Chen Hengde's jealous eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, just now he was mocking Qin Fan thinking that he was not qualified to participate in this dinner, but as soon as he finished speaking, Qin Fan was treated as a guest and arranged to sit next to Lei Ye. Chen Hengde's old face was smacked, and it was about to swell into a pig's head.

What made him even more angry was that several auction company CEOs who had a good relationship with him were also distancing themselves intentionally or unintentionally at this time.

"Master Lei, this time you are looking for us old guys, I don't know what to order." During the banquet, an old man in a Tang shirt with gray hair but a good complexion asked.

Su Yanran introduced to Qin Fan in a low voice that this old man in Tang shirt was the chief appraiser of a large auction company, and he had a high reputation in the antique collecting circle.

"I'll tell you the truth, I invite you here this time because I want you to palm your eyes."

Lei Ye is like a Maitreya Buddha with a smile on the corner of his mouth, making people unable to guess the true thoughts in his heart.

"Hehe, the object that Lei Ye took out must be a good thing. Before the food is served, why don't we take a look at this thing first, otherwise the old man is talking about something in my heart, and the meal will not be fragrant. ”

The old man in Tang shirt was funny and humorous, and he amused everyone present with one sentence, and the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Then according to Lu Lao, look at things first."

Lei Ye clapped his palms, and the cheongsam girl who was waiting in the box carried a palm-sized brocade box, and Tingting walked over in a curling manner.

At this time, everyone straightened their heads, wanting to see what kind of treasure was in the brocade box.

Lei Ye pushed this brocade box in front of Lu Lao, and made a meaningful gesture of please.

"Master Lei, what kind of treasure is in this box, so mysterious?" Lu Lao had long been itchy and opened the brocade box in front of everyone.

At the moment when the brocade box was opened, a luster of azure luster was reflected on Lu Lao's face.

Inside the brocade box is a porcelain dish about the size of a palm, shaped like a soy sauce dish used to pour soy sauce on the dinner table, but the tire of this porcelain dish is as thin as a cicada's wings, and the glaze on the surface of the porcelain shows a plain azure color.

"It's ...... Ru kiln? ”

Lu Lao's eyes widened in shock, a flush appeared on his face, and his palms trembled slightly, as if he was startled by the Ru kiln green glaze dish in front of him.

The moment they saw the palm-sized Ru kiln green glaze dish in the brocade box, everyone's eyes lit up, and their faces showed incredible expressions.

"No, it's Ru Yao!"

Su Yanran has been the boss of the auction company for so many years, and naturally knows the preciousness of the Ru kiln in the Song Dynasty.

Everyone must know that there are five famous kilns in Song porcelain: Ru, Guan, Ge, Jun and Ding. Among them, Ru kiln is the leader, and it is a well-deserved leader among the five famous kilns.

Ru kilns are very rare, and it can be said that Liao Ruoxing is a star. Zhou Hui in the middle of the Southern Song Dynasty said in the "Qingbo Magazine", "It is forbidden to burn in the Ruyao Palace, and there is agate as the glaze inside. Only for the royal selection and retreat, only to be allowed to sell, close to especially rare. ”

The time of Ru kiln firing is very short, and it is the imperial porcelain, even in the Southern Song Dynasty at that time, it is very rare and rare, and it is extremely difficult to see in modern Ru kiln, and some antique collectors can not find a genuine Ru kiln in their lifetime.

Seeing that Lu Lao's face was flushed with excitement, and his palms were trembling a little, Lei Ye just smiled and didn't speak, making people unable to guess what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd.

"This Ru kiln green glaze dish is very thin, the glaze is moist, and the glaze is densely covered with crab claw patterns. Like jade, not jade, but better than jade. It is definitely a genuine Ru kiln. ”

The eyes of the CEO of an auction company here are almost glued to this Ru kiln green glaze plate, if their company can have such a Ru kiln green glaze dish auction, it will definitely cause a huge sensation in the collection world.

"Qin Fan, do you see that this Ru kiln green glaze dish in Lei Ye's hand is genuine?"

Su Yanran's dark eyes were full of brilliance, and she was also attracted by this precious Ru kiln, and her heart was amazed.

"It's too far away, I can't see the details clearly, if it's just from the tread and glaze, it should be Ru kiln."

Although he said this, Qin Fan still had some doubts and uneasiness in his heart.

The Qing Palace's "Inventory of the Work of the Office" records that in the seventh year of Yongzheng, there was a statistic in the court. At that time, Emperor Yongzheng ordered the eunuchs Liu Xiwen and Wang Taiping to sort out a box of Ru kiln porcelain, and a total of 31 Ru kilns were counted.

Because the judgment of Ru kiln at that time was not very scientific, it was completely based on personal eyesight, so it was inevitable that Jun kiln or official kiln with similar color would be regarded as Ru kiln. That is to say, at that time, the entire palace collection of Ru kilns in the Yongzheng period was less than 30 pieces.

In modern times, there are only about 67 records of Ru kilns in the world. For the average collector, the only way to see the Ru kiln is to go to a world-class museum, and the Ru kiln porcelain in private collections is even more rare.

The probability of antique collectors finding genuine Ru kiln porcelain is probably smaller than buying five million in a lottery ticket, which can be said to be looking for a needle in a haystack.

Based on these reasons, Qin Fan was skeptical about the Ru kiln porcelain in Lei Ye's hand, and did not dare to assert the authenticity.

"Ru kilns are so rare that they are extremely difficult to see at international auctions. If this Ru kiln porcelain can be put up for auction, it is not impossible to auction it for hundreds of millions of dollars. ”

Su Yanran couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

As far as Qin Fan knows, there was really an auction of Ru kiln porcelain in history.

Around the 90s of the 20th century, there was a public auction of a Ru kiln plate with a diameter of 8 cm in New York. Interestingly, this Ru kiln plate was not burned well at that time, and the plate was a little deformed. It is estimated that after the plate was fired at that time, the porcelain craftsman saw that it was not qualified, so he threw it into the waste heap and buried it. But fortunately, the plate was not broken and was dug up many years later.

At that time, this slightly deformed Ru kiln porcelain was sold for 1.54 million US dollars when it was auctioned in the United States. At that time, the enamel color worth hundreds of millions of RMB was now sold for two or three hundred thousand US dollars, and if this Ru kiln porcelain was put to the present, the price would probably increase more than ten times.

Although the CEOs of the auction companies present here are all wealthy, they are all excited to see this priceless Ru kiln green glaze plate, and they are all red with excitement, and carefully hold this porcelain plate in the palm of their hands, and their movements are more gentle than stroking their lover's skin, for fear that they will accidentally damage this Ru kiln that is as thin as a cicada's wings.

"Master Lei, congratulations. This blue glazed porcelain plate should be a genuine Ru kiln, I don't know where you got this Ru kiln, Lei Ye. Lu Lao put down the magnifying glass in his hand, let out a long breath, and asked with some curiosity.

"Hehe, the origin of this Ru kiln will let me sell a pass, and I will talk about it after everyone here has completed the identification." Lei Ye said with a smile.

Not long after, this Ru kiln turned around on the dining table and fell into Qin Fan's hands.

Qin Fan carefully held this Ru kiln blue glaze plate, his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the Ru kiln porcelain with azure luster in his hand, and carefully identified it.

"Hmph, pretend."

Chen Hengde snorted mockingly, he looked at Qin Fan's age and was a little contemptuous, thinking that Qin Fan was a layman who knew nothing about antiques, but he was just pretending to be in front of Lei Ye, and he couldn't see why.

After half a ring, Qin Fan put this Ru kiln back, and his face showed a complicated color, as if he was struggling with something.

"Qin boy, what do you think of this Ruyao green glaze dish, tell everyone."

Lei Ye wanted to test Qin Fan's skills, so he asked him to say what he thought of this Ru kiln.

"Hehe, it's the first time I've seen Ru Kiln, and I don't have too much research on Ru Kiln, don't be surprised if you say something wrong."

At this time, the eyes of everyone present were focused on Qin Fan's face, waiting to see what nutritious insights this young man who was favored by Lei Ye could say.

"There are several characteristics of Ru kiln, the first is to see if there are crab claw patterns on the glaze, everyone sees that the tips of the crab claws of hairy crabs are small burrs, probably that feeling."

"Then there is the fish scale opening, I don't know if you have noticed, the glazed opening of the Ru kiln is different from all porcelain, the angle of the crack is oblique, not straight. If the film is opened diagonally, it has a refractive index, so it looks very beautiful. ”

"The third is the incense ash tire, the Ruyao tire we see is light gray, just like the incense ash that falls after burning incense. Moreover, the tires of Ruyao are very thin, and the bottom of the tire is generally the same thickness. For other porcelain, the bottom is generally thicker than the fetus. ”

"The last point is that the glaze of the Ru kiln is azure, which is the standard color of the Ru kiln."

A big reason why Ru kiln is valuable is because its glaze color is presented by agate. As we all know, agate is an extremely valuable color material, the ancients in the firing of the Ru kiln, the glaze added agate powder, so the glaze of the Ru kiln glossy, very beautiful.

Judging from these details, the Ru kiln green glaze plate in front of Qin Fan echoed the characteristics of the Ru kiln, but it was because this Ru kiln was too perfect that Qin Fan had a trace of doubt.
