Chapter 627: Doucai Broken Porcelain

Jin Muchen's time to enter the antique industry is not short, and the top-level porcelain he handles is even more unknown.

If he only relied on normal business methods, I am afraid that he would not be able to get a few pieces of the world's top Chinese porcelain in his lifetime.

But he has a special ability, and he has personally broken into the British Museum and washed in blood several times.

You must know that in the world, the place to collect China's top ancient porcelain is neither the domestic Palace Museum, nor the private collection of those private collectors, but the place in the world to collect China's top precious porcelain, but the British Museum.

Only there, can you see the world's only remaining porcelain in the best condition and the largest number of Ru kiln, Jun kiln, Ding kiln, Guan kiln, Ge kiln and other five major kiln factories of the Song Dynasty.

Moreover, there are many collections of all kinds of top-level precious porcelain in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and they are all in the best condition and quality.

However, now those precious porcelains are now stored in Jin Muchen's purple jade space.

However, although the British Museum claims to have the most complete collection of ancient Chinese top porcelain, it is not without its shortcomings, at least according to records, there is a kind of ancient China's top precious porcelain, which has a collection in the British Museum.

And this kind of precious porcelain is the Chenghua Doucai porcelain of the Ming Dynasty!!

It was also a few years ago that in the Chinese auction market, that is, after the Guiguzi blue and white jar of the Yuan Dynasty, the kind of porcelain that once again set a sky-high price.

In 2007, in an auction in Xiangjiang, a Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup was auctioned at a sky-high price of 240 million Hong Kong dollars. As soon as this price comes out. Immediately, it caused an uproar.

It is also in the world of antique collecting in China. caused an uproar.

After this price came out, there have been countless archaeological and treasure appreciation experts, in various treasure appreciation and treasure hunting programs, and the topic of discussion is nothing more than the Ming Chenghua Doucai chicken bowl cup, is it worth so much money.

However, those experts have fought countless times, and in the end they have not come to a clear conclusion.

But there is a problem, which was finally confirmed, that is, the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup. It is indeed one of the most precious Chinese top porcelain in the world, and his survival is indeed very rare, so it is indeed very valuable, but as for the other Ming Chenghua Doucai is worth it, so far those experts have not been able to give a conclusion.

The reason why I couldn't come to a conclusion is very simple, that is, there are too few Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain in existence.

So far, there is only the Palace Museum in the capital, and the Palace Museum on the treasure island. There are only a few dozen pieces in total, as for other museums. There is no such collection in good condition.

Even in this birthplace of Chenghua Doucai, China's famous porcelain capital, there are only sixteen pieces of Chenghua Doucai collection, and they are all defective products that have been restored.

It can be seen that this Chenghua Doucai porcelain is rare among the top porcelains in ancient China.

This Chenghua Doucai porcelain, in terms of the amount of survival, is definitely no less than the Song Dynasty Ru kiln porcelain that is peerless.

Because of its special historical position in the porcelain industry, coupled with the very small number of surviving people, and the emperor's exclusive use of the inscriptions at that time, this has created this Ming Doucai porcelain, which is currently the status of China's top ancient porcelain.

As soon as he thought of this, Jin Muchen's heart beat even more, you must know that after taking a turn in the British Museum, his personal collection of China's top ancient porcelain is basically collected, if there are any regrets, I am afraid it can only be said that there is still this Ming Chenghua Doucai, there is no collection.

If now, these broken porcelain pieces in his hand are really the broken porcelain pieces of Ming Chenghua Doucai, then how can God open his eyes and send this treasure he hopes to get the most in front of him.

The reason why he guessed that these broken porcelain pieces were Chenghua Doucai of the Ming Dynasty was because of the jewels flashed by these broken porcelain pieces, and on the other hand, it was also determined by reference to the age of the antiques cleaned up in the previous boxes.

He had also asked them before what age the tomb they had stolen this time, but what Abin said was vague and did not say too clearly, and obviously they didn't know what age the tomb was.

But judging from the things unearthed from these tombs, this tomb should be the tomb of the Ming Dynasty, so he boldly deduced that these broken porcelain pieces should be the Ming Chenghua Doucai broken porcelain pieces that he is most in short supply at present.

For others, such broken porcelain pieces may not be of much value, even those who know that these are Ming Chenghua Doucai broken porcelain pieces, because even if those people currently master the most advanced restoration technology, it is impossible to repair these broken porcelain pieces to their original state.

But this is not a problem for himself at all, if these broken porcelain pieces are really the broken porcelain pieces of Chenghua Doucai, then for himself, it is just a problem that can be solved by throwing them into the purple jade space and then sleeping.

As soon as he thought of this, Jin Muchen's heart became even hotter.

The movements in his hands became more and more cautious, even when he had just cleaned the porcelain in good condition, his movements had never been so gentle and careful.

Fortunately, at this time, it was relatively dark, and those people in the yard did not notice his cautious look, plus at this time, the big guys were also a little slack, and their spirits were no longer on these things, so he had the opportunity to carefully clean up two pieces of this broken porcelain piece.

The background color of these two pieces of broken porcelain is white porcelain, just looking at the fetal quality, you can already see the difference between the fetal quality, compared to the fetal quality of the vase that was cleaned up before and taken out in good condition, I don't know how much higher.

These two pieces of broken porcelain are white and delicate, thin and light, holding them in your hand, there is no weight at all in a pad, the porcelain piece gives Jin Muchen the feeling that it is as thin as a cicada's wings, and the strong light flashlight is through the porcelain, secretly so photographed, and you can even see your fingers through the porcelain.

In a closer look at the white glaze on the porcelain piece is soft and smooth, the surface and the inside are the same, the formation of this fetal and glaze characteristics is due to the decline in the iron and calcium content in Chenghua porcelain, which is completely in line with the characteristics of the fetal quality and enamel of Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain.

Looking at the pattern on the broken porcelain piece, because it is a fragment, it is not possible to tell what color pattern is on the white enamel, but it is certain that Jin Muchen has definitely seen more than one color.

Although it was just a glimpse, you could still see that the other colors were gorgeous, rich and luxurious.

Just by putting these few characteristics together, Jin Muchen has basically concluded that this must be a fragment of Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain.

After making such a conclusion, his heart actually beat violently again.

After looking up at the old man Li, the sixth uncle, as well as Ah Qiang, Ah Bin, and Sister Tao, he saw those few people, and no one paid attention to him at this time.

The few of them were discussing something in a hurry, but the thing they were surrounding in the middle was the colorful chrysanthemum celestial ball bottle that Jin Muchen had cleaned up first......

Seeing such a situation, Jin Muchen really didn't know what to say, but he was still relieved, and finally, taking advantage of the fact that those people were not paying attention, he quickly stuffed the two cleaned porcelain pieces into the dirt pile of the box, and then deliberately touched a layer of mud on them......

Those people didn't know what they were talking about, but the attitude was in full swing, Jin Muchen didn't have the heart to get involved, so he stood up at this time, first took out a cigarette and lit one for himself, and then took a hard puff to calm down the emotions stirring in his heart.

He never imagined that what he had always been able to meet but could not ask for in his heart would appear in front of him under such circumstances.

This Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain is really too precious, and it also has a unique position in the history of ancient Chinese porcelain.

And the reason for this status is mainly because it is the first porcelain to embody all kinds of different colors on a single porcelain for the first time!

Prior to this, ancient Chinese porcelain was a single color, and it was only with the emergence of Chenghua Doucai that a variety of different colors were created, all of which appeared on a porcelain precedent.

Porcelain first appeared in the Jin Dynasty, but at that time it was only a failure to fire pottery, at that time porcelain because the firing technology was not mature, the blank used contained a large number of copper ions, so the porcelain fired out of most of them was green.

So for a long time, China's ancient porcelain, are mainly green, this situation did not improve until the Song Dynasty, with the maturity of firing technology, in the early Northern Song Dynasty, the history of China, for the first time appeared more pure white porcelain.

Later, because of the love of the emperor of the Song Dynasty, most of the porcelain of the Song Dynasty preferred a single azure porcelain.

The kind of colorful porcelain produced by the kiln was completely due to the poor technology of the kiln at that time, and the glaze flowed when the porcelain was fired, and the defective products caused by accidents caused by the accident......

Later, the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty was so popular in Western Europe and the Middle East because it was the first kind of porcelain that people used natural fuels and used white porcelain as the base to paint on porcelain.

Therefore, the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty can be regarded as a kind of porcelain that has created a historical precedent.

In the Ming Dynasty, people used various natural dyes and began to apply arbitrary acts on porcelain, and for the first time, different colors were applied to the same porcelain, which can be regarded as creating a precedent for Chinese pastel porcelain.

And this Ming Chenghua Doucai is the top representative work in pastel porcelain! (To be continued.) )
