Chapter 34 Buddha Elephant Identification - Eye-Punching!

"Old Qian, what's going on?"

Seeing that Qian Fang didn't speak for a long time, and his face was quite bad, Fang Ming's heart "chuckled", this is not a good thing.

Shaking his head, Qian Fang sighed and said, "Fang Ming, this thing is not a good thing, a typical imitation. ”

Zhou Yafang also nodded and said, "Old Qian, this thing Fang Ming bought from Jiang Hua's hands, and I am not optimistic about it." ”

Zhou Yafang's "not optimistic" actually means the same as Qian Fang, but it is not easy to say it too directly, for fear of hitting Fang Ming.

"Huh?"

Fang Ming was stunned, his eyes widened in surprise, how could this Buddha statue be fake? It's clear that there is a Pixiu!

"This Buddha statue is a high relief, boat-shaped bare back, Maitreya three side by side, as for the lotus platform under the four-legged square library."

"What's wrong with that?"

Fang Ming stared at Qian Fang with wide eyes, after all, he didn't have much experience in this area, nor did he have much knowledge accumulation, so he couldn't understand what the problem was.

Zhou Yafang turned the Buddha statue around, pointed to an inconspicuous place at the bottom of the back and said, "Have you seen it, there are a few words here." ”

Fang Ming walked over and took a look at it, and said, "Taiping Zhenjun for three years? What does that mean? ”

"That's right, it's these words, Taiping Zhenjun = one = this ~ read = novel = ybdu is the name of the Northern Wei Dynasty Taiwu Emperor Tuoba Tao, his reign is a total of 11 years, that is, from June 440 to June 451, the place where this Buddha statue is engraved with these words means that this Buddha statue is in the Northern Wei Dynasty."

Zhou Yafang paused for a moment to allow Fang Ming to digest this knowledge before continuing: "Every era of Buddha statues has its characteristics. The same is true of the Northern Wei Dynasty. First of all, look at the bare back, that is, the whole fan behind the Buddha statue, the Buddha statue you picked up is a boat, but compare the bare back of the Buddha statue in this period, you can find that it is not the same thing at all, the bare back of the Buddha statue at this time is relatively tall, the proportion is stretched, quite and powerful, from the length is relatively long, the collection of the British Museum of Huangxing five years of Qiu Ji Nu made Guanyin statue can be clearly seen these characteristics. This can't be seen on this Buddha statue of yours, but it exudes a small family atmosphere. Second, the flame pattern on the Buddha statue is also a place that can be studied. The flame pattern on the Buddha statue in the early years of the Northern Wei Dynasty is characterized by thinness, twisting and circling and powerful, which is influenced by the Han Dynasty, the biggest feature of this pattern is that it is sharp as a knife, giving people a feeling of jumping as if it is a burning flame, and the ornament on the Buddha statue you bought back is a very common auspicious cloud shape later, and you can find that these auspicious clouds are not angry at all between the tumbling, which is very abnormal for the Buddha statue of the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”

Qian Fang glanced at Zhou Yafang, he didn't expect her to know so much in this regard.

The Buddha statue that Fang Mingtao came back has many "weaknesses", in addition to what Zhou Yafang said, it can also be seen from the lotus seat that there are big problems. The lotus seat where the Buddha statue of the Northern Dynasty sits, generally speaking, the part of the lotus flesh inside will protrude high to form a table, the lotus petal is the full and powerful one, each petal is composed of two oval spherical protrusions together, this form of the lotus has influenced some subsequent dynasties. On the contrary, the Buddha statue that Fang Mingtao came back looked very thin in terms of the rosette, as if it was irrigated without water.

In addition, the pedestal is also very problematic, the Northern Wei Dynasty is often trapezoidal, but relatively short, and the four feet are relatively wide. But the front of the one in front of you is three ovals, which is impossible to see in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"Fang Ming, Miss Zhou is not wrong at all, this Buddha statue is very problematic, so this time you are eye-catching."

Seeing that Fang Ming was stunned and didn't speak, Zhou Yafang thought that he was still not giving up, so he thought for a while and said: "Fang Ming, the problem with this Buddha statue is not only what I said above, the main thing is his demeanor, the Buddha statue you brought back has a round face, the facial features are concentrated, and the demeanor on the face is more secular, it is very likely that it was made by people who have made counterfeits in recent years, if you take a closer look, you will find that its smile is very modern, which cannot be seen on the Buddha statues of the Northern Wei Dynasty, At that time, the Buddha statues generally had slender and tall noses, thin lips like paper, and their demeanor was more solemn, respectable and unapproachable. ”

Fang Ming knew that Zhou Yafang said so much not to hit herself, but for her own good, and was explaining to herself how to identify an antique through a practical example.

He also knows that Qian Fang is an authority in collecting, and Zhou Yafang is also one of the masters, they say this is equivalent to sentencing this Buddha statue to death, and Fang Ming naturally has no way to refute their analysis, but what makes them wonder is that since this is a fake thing, not an antique, why does when his right hand touches the Buddha statue, there will be a Pixiu on the back of his hand like he touched the wrench before?

What Fang Ming really couldn't understand was this question, which was also the real reason why he hadn't spoken all the time, not because Qian Fang and Zhou Yafang had given a "death penalty notice" to the Buddha statues they had found. ”

With his brows furrowed tightly, Fang Ming walked to the Buddha statue and studied it carefully.

Zhou Yafang and Qian Fang glanced at each other, they were both from the past, and of course they understood Fang Ming's mentality at this time.

"Heh, this is also the way to go, there is no problem, this time it is also a good thing for him, let him understand that this industry is not so easy to mix, it can be regarded as spending money to buy a lesson. That's a good thing. ”

Qian Fang drank a cup of tea, he is an old man, what things and people have not seen? Fang Ming's kind of "symptoms" are relatively mild. There are a lot of people who play antiques to the point of going crazy, for example, guarding a thing that is clearly fake and studying all day long, if you have to say that it is true, whoever dares to say that it is fake will fight with you!

"Humph! Jiang Hua dared to cheat my people, and I saw him look good another day. ”

Zhou Yafang showed a gritted tooth expression on her face, and she laughed when she put the money away, and said: "Miss Zhou, there is no need for this, of course, it is a common thing for people in our industry to be eye-catching, I have just said that eye-catching is only good for Fang Ming, there is no harm - none of us grew up from eye-catching; Second, it's useless for you to find Jiang Hua, one is willing to sell and the other is to buy, if you are not a person in this industry, it is better to say, since you are, then you really have no way to do Jiang Hua. ”

Zhou Yafang also understands this, what she said just now is just angry words, Qian Fang is right, whether it is an eye-catching or a settlement with Jiang Hua, there is no way to do it, especially it is absolutely impossible to settle accounts with Jiang Hua.

If you look for Jiang Hua to return the money? So what if you miss it? Doesn't that mean that Jiang Hua can also ask Fang Ming to return the goods?

This obviously doesn't make sense.

"Well, I'm just talking."

Zhou Yafang and Qian Fang's conversation Fang Ming didn't listen to a word, all his spirit was placed on the Buddha statue - he tried several times, and found that he was not wrong before, when his right hand was placed on the Buddha statue, the back of the right hand did appear Pixiu, but he also found a strange phenomenon, that is, only when his right hand was placed on the base of the Buddha statue, the Pixiu on the back of the hand would appear, and if it was placed elsewhere to talk about the head, there was no reaction at all.

"What's going on? Could it be that this Buddha statue is real only with this base, and everything else is fake? ”

The more Fang Ming thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was very likely to be right, or he couldn't explain why this was the case at all?

Of course, it can't be ruled out that there is a problem with your ability.

Fang Ming thought for a moment, his left hand leaned on the Buddha statue, and his right hand leaned towards the base of the Buddha statue, he wanted to see if there was anything special underneath.

However, what he didn't expect was that this Buddha statue was too big, and it had a considerable weight, and it fell to the ground simply without holding it for a while, and when Fang Ming came back to his senses and wanted to help it, it was too late.

The Buddha statue fell to the ground, and because it was porcelain, it broke with a "bang".

"Ahh

Zhou Yafang looked at the Buddha statue that fell to the ground, and let out a low exclamation, although this thing is said to be fake, but it doesn't want such a result, right?

Fang Ming straightened up, was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands very shamefully, and said, "Come on, this time there really is no need to study again." ”

The Buddha statue has been smashed and has no value, and there is no need to study it.

Qian Fang was also happy, laughed, and said:

"Heh, it seems that it knows that it is fake, so it fell."

Fang Ming also laughed "hee", this thing is strictly the first time he has picked up a leak after entering the collection industry, so he didn't talk about it, and finally dropped the thing, which is also something worth remembering and remembering.

Walking to the store to find a broom, Fang Ming swept the broken Buddha statues together, and then took them out. At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, but after scanning a few pieces, he slowly saw that the path of the Buddha statue seemed to reveal a special light.

"Huh? What's going on? ”

Fang Ming threw the broom aside, squatted down, and reached out to pick up the scattered fragments of the Buddha statue.

Fang Ming's movements immediately attracted the attention of Zhou Yafang and Qian Fang, they couldn't sit still, they stood up together and walked over, and squatted down like Fang Ming, and both of them couldn't help their curiosity, they reached out and picked up the porcelain piece like Fang Ming, they also wanted to know what was in there!

Avon Zhai was quiet for a while, Fang Ming, Zhou Yafang, and Qian Fang all concentrated and carefully picked up the pieces of porcelain scattered on the ground gently, and then gently put them aside......
