"Boss, why do those three vases look so weird?"

Jin Muchen pointed to the three vases placed at the top of the shelves and asked tentatively.

"You can call me Wells. Shen, or Shen Willy. ”

The middle-aged boss said to Jin Muchen with a smile, it cost more than 10,000 yuan as soon as he made a move, and he didn't bargain at all, not to mention that this was still a guest with a face, of course this Xiangjiang boss wanted to get closer to him and develop him into a repeat customer.

Like many Xiangjiang people, although he has been in the mainland for many years, this boss still retains his English name, which looks very foreign and unique in Panjiayuan.

Jin Muchen smiled and nodded: "Willy, can you take down those three vases and take a look." ”

"No problem, you wait."

The shelves are very high, and in the middle and below, there are English Victorian porcelain, which seems to be part genuine and part modern imitations, but the three vases, put together with these porcelain, look a little out of place.

It should be used for decoration by the boss, if he really knew the origin of these three vases, he would definitely not put these three vases on the top of the shelves so casually.

Even when they were taken down, because they hadn't been cleaned for a long time, the three vases were covered with dust. The boss also picked up a rag and wiped it.

And then the three porcelain vases were put together. placed in front of Jin Muchen.

The porcelain vase is about 30 centimeters tall. The overall shape is a streamlined easter egg, and the lines are very smooth, if you have to put a style on it, then it should be said to belong to the Rococo style.

Such a style is reflected in these three vases, which can be very eccentric, you must know that this rococo style, the most frequent table xiàn carrier. However, it is really rare for architecture, furniture carvings, or silverware, and some exquisite ornaments to be reflected in porcelain.

The three vases are egg-shaped, divided into two sections, with an egg-shaped porcelain vase on top and a funnel-shaped bracket below, which also looks very old. It's been some years, and I've been looking at the light shining on it. It should be the original match.

The background color of copper gilt, coupled with the purple of the hair thief, may seem nondescript in the eyes of others, mellow and dignified, but in Jin Muchen's view, such a color scheme is the essence of these three vases.

Although he couldn't figure out the origin of these three vases for a while, Jin Muchen felt that he should still buy these three vases back and study them well.

"Boss, how do these three vases ......?"

Although he liked these three vases very much in his heart, he also knew that he couldn't be too eager, you must know that this is Panjiayuan, although this boss came to Xiangjiang, but this is a notoriously bloodless place for slaughtering people.

So his questions were still mainly tentative, and the boss also smiled wryly when he saw him asking such a strange question.

"Weird, isn't it? To be honest, I don't know why I brought these three bottles from Xiangjiang in the first place, and some people have asked me about the origin of these three bottles before, but I can't tell clearly, and even some friends persuaded me to throw them away, saying that their appearance here is really unsightly, but I still can't bear it! ”

Shen Weili had a wry smile on his face, and it seemed that he was telling the truth, not like he was telling a story.

"These three vases were handed down by my grandfather in the sixties of the last century, when he happened to travel to England. At that time, only 20 years after the end of World War II, the British government imposed heavy taxes on families above the middle class in order to revive the economy, and many originally wealthy families could not afford it, so they had to start selling their property. You know, this is a good opportunity for us who are in the antiques business, and my grandfather took advantage of this to dig up several old houses in London, and these three vases should have been bought by him when he was digging for an old house. After he bought it, he couldn't study it, so he kept it at home. In this way, these three bottles have been in our house for decades, and when I went north to the capital, I was also hot-headed, so I brought them together. But as you can see, this bottle has been in my house for decades, and it hasn't been sold, and there are very few people who recognize it. ”

Shen Weili introduced the origin of these three bottles, Jin Muchen also nodded, when Shen Weili spoke, he was quietly paying attention to the change in the expression on his face, it really didn't look like he was lying.

"Hey! You don't know where this bottle came from! ”

He sighed and said deliberately, and Shen Weili nodded cooperatively.

"Okay, can you make an offer?"

Jin Muchen suddenly said this, which made Shen Weili stunned, and Jin Muchen continued with a smile.

"Haha, I'm not the same as those collectors you've met before, what do you say about me? I prefer unpopular things, especially Western-style antiques, and now the domestic Chinese-style things are too hot, and they will make a sky-high price at every turn, I just can't afford to collect them, so it's better to get some Western-style antiques to change your appetite. ”

As soon as he explained so casually, Shen Willy instantly understood.

In recent years, the domestic antique market has been hot, and many of the original very ordinary things have been fried to sky-high prices at every turn, which makes many Tibetan friends who really like to collect, but are shy in their pockets, seem to be at a loss.

It is precisely because of this trend that in recent years, Western antiques have gradually become popular in China.

The starting price is low, and the value retention rate is not bad, which is also the main reason why he has been able to gain a firm foothold in Panjiayuan and become famous in the hometown of Guangdong in recent years.

"Hmm...... All right...... It's rare that these three bottles can meet people who really like them, so let's do it, these three bottles, 10,000 each, a total of 30,000, boss, what do you think? ”

These three bottles were brought back by his grandfather in London in the sixties of the last century, when his grandfather packed and dug out other people's old houses, and he took out dozens of things, and it only cost a few hundred pounds in total.

Now that decades have passed, he asked for 30,000 yuan for these three unnamed bottles, which is not low.

Jin Muchen didn't hesitate at all: "Deal!" ”

Shen Willy's face was full of joy, he really met a big high roller today, and he spent more than 40,000 yuan in his own store as soon as he changed hands.

How nice would it be if you could meet such a big high roller every day?

helped Jin Muchen pack these treasures carefully, packed them, and then sent them all the way to the door, and then went back satisfied.

Carrying a few things in his hand, Jin Muchen didn't have the heart to go shopping, turned around and walked out of Panjiayuan, then called a taxi and went back to the hotel directly.

When I arrived at the hotel, I didn't even care about eating, so I took out the three easter egg-shaped bottles again.

Under the Western sun, the color of these three easter egg-shaped vases is constantly changing with the change of sunlight and angle, and suddenly there is a bit more magnificent and extraordinary taste.

Jin Muchen stared at these vases, and only then did he feel the beauty of these vases for the first time.

Although the glaze on their bodies is not as formal as the color on the Chinese porcelain bottles, it has another layer of its own unique characteristics.

When the brightness and angle of the light are different, the reflected light on their bodies has another flavor, which can lead to reverie.

What do you say about this feeling? It's like if you look at the paintings of those impressionist masters, their paintings, in the eyes of ordinary people, are no different from ghost paintings and foot wipes.

But if you really know how to do it, if you can really read it, if you can understand their composition, and if you can understand the use of color, you will have a lot of reverie about those paintings, and those paintings can remind you of a lot of things.

This is called the creation of zào force, and imagination!

Even when everyone sees such a painting, they will have their own different feelings and reveries, which is where the B style of Impressionism lies!

And the three bronze gilt egg vases in front of him can give him the general feeling of the paintings of the impressionist masters!

In combination with the rococo-style curves used in this bottle, Jin Muchen's heart moved suddenly.

Then I started to look it up on the Internet......

Shen Willy and his grandparents have not been able to understand the origin of this vase for generations, because they are mainly engaged in the British antiques business, and France may not know so much about another art country in Europe.

You must know that the Rococo style originated in France.

And he suddenly remembered a book he had read about the history of the development of porcelain in Western Europe, which seemed to say that the French who liked to use metal glaze on porcelain to make art ceramics.

Moreover, the French art ceramics makers are also very fond of embodying the impressionist style they pursue on their porcelain.

If you think about it this way, these three porcelain vases are all in line with the characteristics of French art ceramics.

Could it be that these three bronze gilt egg vases are from French porcelain?

Because there is a wall in China, there is a lot of information, Jin Muchen had to go over the wall to find it, and the Internet speed was very stuck, but soon Jin Muchen found some useful information, which made him more excited the more he looked.

“…… The style of French art ceramics...... Bold color use ...... Metallic glaze, rust, cream, brown, purple are the first to be used in ceramic decoration, and they have a strong self-style......"

When he saw these comments, Jin Muchen slapped his thigh suddenly, this is right, and the next step is to find out the origin of this bottle. (To be continued......)
