Chapter 731: Mao Porcelain

Li Yi took a fancy to the cowpea red and white bottle, to be honest, it was indeed a burned thing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, not every piece of burned porcelain is worthless, on the contrary, some porcelain that has an accident during the firing process is even more valuable than the perfectly fired finished product.

This is too white bottle.

Almost everyone knows that cowpea red is precious because it is so difficult to fire. Because it is difficult to grasp the color of the copper red glaze applied to the porcelain body, once the fire is not well controlled, the color of the finished product will not be correct, and if the oxidation is excessive, there will even be flaws such as green spots on the wall.

However, there are exceptions, and once this defect and the soft red glaze appear to be blended just right, forming a wonderful picture of "green as spring water is born, red as the morning glow is about to rise", the value of this porcelain will have to be reestimated.

This kind of cowpea red with green spots is called "beauty drunk", which is indeed a very vivid metaphor.

It's just that Li Yi's piece is different from ordinary beauty drunk, his piece, almost all of his body is pale green, and according to the proportion, those floating reds have become flaws!

Such a cowpea red is more precious than that green-spotted beauty drunk!

The sale was completed, the relationship between the two parties became closer, and there were fewer scruples, Cameron directly said the real reason why he had to exchange this candlestick,

"Mr. Li, plus your monkey, I have found 7 pieces of this set of 12 zodiac candlesticks, I hope you can help me pay attention to them in the future, if you find such a candlestick, please be sure to tell me."

Hearing that this guy actually let him take advantage of him for this reason, Li Yi couldn't help but smile and nodded. Those who have the ambition to collect are good children's shoes, and he will help him pay attention to them without him, and once he finds it, he will buy it first......

The shops at the Porterbalo Road market usually open late, but the stalls come early, because if it is late, there will be a lot of tourists, and there will be no business at all.

Sometimes, it is much less difficult to pick up leaks in the stalls than in the shops, but because of this, if you go late, most of the good things will be taken away, so Li Yi simply got up early in the morning, and when it was just dawn, he came to the market.

There were many more stalls today than he had seen yesterday, not only in the small square, but also on the roadside. And these stalls sell everything, many of them are some second-hand daily necessities, and they have nothing to do with antiques at all, but there are sometimes more people in front of this kind of stall than those who sell antiques!

Li Yi thought it was a little strange at first, but he soon discovered the mystery. Many of these second-hand sellers don't know much about antiques, but that doesn't mean they don't have antiques in these second-hand goods!

The difficulty of picking up leaks in such stalls is many times lower than that of those who specialize in antiques!

However, Li Yi immediately discovered a very interesting phenomenon, these bosses who sell second-hand goods are not really all ignorant. Just like what he is looking at now, this guy actually deliberately mixed a few fake antiques into the old goods he sold, and then naively waited for those Taobao people to take the bait!

Seeing the middle-aged man squatting next to him, holding a fake ancient bone china in his hand like a treasure, and looking at him vigilantly, Li Yi shook his head with a smile, got up and walked forward slowly.

Another stall dealing in second-hand thrift goods, about the size of a table, there are a lot of things scattered around, wallets, watches, lighters and the like, and even a few radios that look like antiques.

Li Yi's gaze swept over the stall, and suddenly his gaze froze, squatted down, and picked up a colorful white porcelain ashtray with moon pattern and looked at it.

The shape of this ashtray is very modern, and it is a modern product at a glance, but the porcelain is crystal clear, warm and lovely, and it does not look like ordinary modern porcelain.

Li Yi took the ashtray and studied it carefully for a while, and his heart moved, remembering what kind of porcelain this was, this should be a Liling porcelain porcelain!

In the history of the development of Chinese ceramics, Mao porcelain occupies an important position because of its distinctive characteristics of the times in shape and style, and it has always represented the highest level of porcelain production in this period. Among them, Liling's "Mao Porcelain" and Jingdezhen's "7501 Mao Porcelain" are the two most respected categories in the collector's circle.

Liling is known as the "red official kiln" among the people, and the preference of several generations of national leaders for Liling porcelain has made it a layer of magical color, which has also greatly enhanced its value. In 1974, Liling customized a batch of exclusive porcelain for Chairman Mao, and has not continued to produce since then.

According to relevant statistics, the number of Liling "Mao porcelain" collections does not exceed 400 pieces, of which the number of people is less than 200 pieces.

Li Yi never expected to encounter such porcelain abroad, although it was just an ashtray, it also made him feel that his luck was really good.

After verifying it with the spirit identification card and confirming that this ashtray is indeed a Liling "Mao porcelain", Li Yi asked directly:

"Boss, do you have porcelain like this here?"

"Yes, there's another set of these bowls, and I haven't had time to put them out yet."

The boss was a middle-aged woman who looked very honest, and her answer made Li Yi overjoyed. A set, at present, there are not a few sets of wool porcelain that can be completed in China, right? He remembers very clearly that when he was 13 years old, a set of five underglaze colorful "7501" porcelain bowls was once auctioned for a sky-high price of 8 million soft girl coins!

"Boss, how many bowls are there? Can you show it to me? ”

"Right away, I'll bring it out to you right away."

The boss threw a portable disc player in his hand to the stall, turned around and opened the cardboard box behind him, took out a stack of five white porcelain bowls, and put them in front of Li Yi.

"My porcelain set was from an old neighbor's house, and she said that it was given to her by an old friend in China......

As the boss spoke, he took out a pottery cup with a big mouth missing from the box, and Li Yi carefully picked up the top porcelain bowl and looked at it.

This is a small white porcelain bowl with a red hibiscus pattern under glaze, the porcelain is comparable to the ashtray just now, and the tire is thinner, and the feeling of transparency is stronger.

Li Yi took a look and decided that this was definitely a piece of porcelain, but it was a 7501 porcelain!

After inspecting the remaining four small bowls one by one, Li Yi determined that this set was almost exactly the same as the set of porcelain small bowls that he had auctioned for 8 million yuan in his memory!

"Boss, how do you sell these small bowls? And this ashtray...... Hey? ”

Li Yi had just put down the last small bowl, and suddenly saw the punching pottery cup that was casually thrown on the stall by the boss, and couldn't help but be stunned, how can this thing look so similar to the Shino pottery he got back yesterday?

Take a look at the pottery cup in front of you, where is this like, this is clearly a Shino pottery, and it looks like the age of both is similar!

"This bowl and ashtray are not only sold, if you want, give a total of 200,000 pounds!"

200,000? Li Yi frowned, why is this price so awkward? Boss, do you understand or don't understand?

"And what about this clay cup?"

"This one? If you buy these pieces, this one will be given to you! ”

The boss glanced at the broken Shino pottery in Li Yi's hand, and looked very generous.

Li Yi shook his head, opened the spirit identification card, and swept it on the five small bowls just now, and then his face changed. If it weren't for his habit of using the spirit card to confirm before trading, today's heel is not small!

It turns out that these five small bowls are all fakes without exception!

Li Yi shook his head slightly, picked up a small bowl and looked at it carefully for a while, and found that there was a mechanism in it, he was indeed affected by the ashtray just now, and he looked away.

This set of small bowls, white porcelain fetus should be no problem, most of them are also fired in the same batch of the year, but the pattern on the wall of the bowl, should be added later, but compared with most of the "post-color" are rougher, this post-color should be made by a master, the painting is quite realistic, image, so that he carelessly almost left the wheat city!

NND, isn't this the same as the legendary grandmother who sold more than 20 kittens with a cat food bowl? It is not worth the life of the dead!

Putting the bowl down, Li Yi confirmed the age of the Shino pottery again, and now he finally didn't admit it, this is indeed the painting Shino of the Momoyama era, but unfortunately it is incomplete.

"Boss, your porcelain is too expensive, I'll just want this one, how much do you say."

"Too expensive? Young man, this is a complete set of porcelain, are you too expensive at this price? That is, I didn't put it out a few days ago, or I would have made a move earlier, you can think about it, and it will be difficult to buy it if you miss it! ”

"Hehe, it's so expensive, I can't afford it even if I want to, so let's talk about the price of this piece."

The boss shrugged his shoulders helplessly and stretched out two fat fingers,

"£20."

Li Yi nodded, took out 20 pounds from his pocket and handed it to her, and stood up with the Shino pottery.

"Sir, please walk slowly, may I see the cup in your hand?"

As soon as he left the woman's stall, a hurried voice came from behind him, and when he turned around, he saw an old gentleman with a strong spirit and an oriental face, and couldn't help but raise his hand,

"You mean this?"

“#¥&#......”

When the old gentleman saw him so casually, he lifted the cup, and hurriedly stretched out his hands to protect it, and muttered a bird language in his mouth. Although Li Yi didn't understand a word, he knew that this was a Japanese and recognized that this pottery was their family property! (To be continued.) )
