His face couldn't help but turn apple green, Xiao Yu didn't know what happened to Lu Dao, when he was usually in a united front with Brother Jin Long, but at this time he seemed to be on Wang Ding's side.

At the moment when it was time to decide who would go and who would stay during this week, Xiao Yu had an ominous premonition.

Holding the feather duster in his hand, Xiao Yu glanced obliquely to pay attention to Wang Ding, but at this time, Wang Ding, who was standing in the room, had a calm expression, he was putting down the bag on his back, and the next second, Wang Ding took out a snuffbox from the bag.

"Brother Li, you said you had something to do with me? Actually, I happened to have something to talk to you and Brother Jin about. The day before yesterday, I took a snuffbox and brought it from home, wanting you and Brother Jin to help me palm my eyes. ”

Carefully placing the snuff box on the table, Wang Ding also made a gesture of invitation with both hands to lead Li Yifeng and Jin Long to the front of the table.

This snuffbox is 6.5 cm tall and has a slightly grey colour that can be held in small hands and is easy to carry.

"Wang Ding, where did you get this snuff bottle?"

Li Yifeng was not in a hurry to taste it, and first asked Wang Ding about the origin of this pot.

"Brother Li, didn't I go home on the weekend, in our hometown of Chang#Yi County, there is a small antique city, I happened to see it there, so I accepted it."

"Didn't ask the seller how it got it?"

"I asked, it seems that I received it from an old mansion in the middle of the road." Wang Ding recalled.

"Oh. Do I ask your origin for what I want? From the first time you took out this snuff bottle, I thought that this bottle was not ordinary, and it was more consistent with the fact that it came from the mansion. You see, this snuff box is carved out of ivory, and there are many materials for snuff bottles. Before the Qing Dynasty, snuff bottles were not very popular, and with the introduction of Western snuff to China, snuff bottles began to develop in China. From stone, jade, to coral, amber, agate, tourmaline, etc., can be used to make snuff bottles, ivory is also one of them, and it is a more precious material. This snuffbox of yours is a ivory carved snuff box. ”

"Golden Dragon, come and see."

Li Yifeng was not in a hurry to express his position, but humbly called the golden dragon palm on the side.

Getting out of the way, the golden dragon approached the snuffbox.

After looking closely, the golden dragon nodded. "This is indeed a tooth-carved snuff box. Moreover, ivory carving is not only a precious material, but more importantly, a fine craftsmanship. The general ivory carving mostly uses deep and shallow relief and openwork carving, which is exquisitely clear, and sometimes painted, which is more gorgeous. This snuff bottle is the use of the technique of carving, Wang Ding, you see, the craftsmanship of the carving craftsman will be the expression, action, interpretation of the boat people to the fullest, its skills are simply perfect. ”

Jin Long was happy, but Wang Ding was puzzled. "Brother Jin, when I first received this treasure, I also took a fancy to his material quality and craftsmanship, but I judged its age according to the way you taught me, but I can't tell when this snuff bottle came from the Qing Dynasty."

"Hehe," Jin Long smiled faintly, "why do you have to know the age of this snuff?" Regarding the identification of snuff bottles, it is enough to identify the quality of the applicator, and it is not necessary to verify its authenticity. Because, the preciousness of the snuff bottle completely depends on the quality of the snuff bottle material and the thickness of the painting and workmanship, and has nothing to do with the age of production and the owner of the production. If the material is indeed rare and the workmanship is ingenious, no matter when it was produced, and no matter who it came from, it is also of the highest quality. On the contrary, the material is ordinary, the workmanship is average, even if it is made by Kangxi and Yongzheng Dynasty, and used by Emperor Kang and Yong, it is not valuable. ”
