Du Hou smiled bitterly: "At that time, I was too tired, and I didn't think much about some things, and when I went home, when I saw this plum bottle, I remembered that this plum bottle was exactly the same as the one at the 88 Mei Guo exhibition, but then I studied it carefully, and I didn't find anything wrong with these three pieces of Yuan blue and white, so I felt that I was thinking too much." Looking at it now, I was just deceiving myself at the time! ”

Chu Chen comforted him and said, "Old Du, don't be discouraged first, maybe things are not as bad as you think!" Whether something is right or not, let's talk about it after we have seen it! ”

Having said that, Chu Chen also knew that he was saying words of relief, because he had already tested it with Baojue just now, and there was no doubt that these three pieces of Yuan Qinghua were indeed complete fakes.

"Hey!" Du Hou didn't have much hope for this, but when he thought that his three pieces of Yuan Qinghua were fakes, he still felt unacceptable in his heart, so he said to Chu Chen and them with a little hope: "Then please take a look at it first!" ”

Chu Chen and Uncle Wu nodded, and each picked up the blue and white porcelain in front of them and looked at it.

Chu Chen's hand is a blue and white jade pot spring bottle, this jade pot spring bottle shape is regular, the lines are beautiful, for the typical Yuan Dynasty jade pot spring bottle style, this bottle foot end is exposed, the bottom of the tire looks a little soft, not as hard as the late Ming Dynasty porcelain fetus, the bottom of the vessel has trachoma, and the bottom is not smooth, and with flint red.

Some people think that the real products of the Yuan Dynasty must have flint red, and some people who have played with ancient porcelain for a few years think that flint red will come out after a long time and when the fetus is old, but in fact, these are all misunderstandings.

There are two factors that produce flint red, one is that the fetal soil is not finely washed. High iron content. The second is the oxidation of the burnt material and the bottom of the vessel during firing. In fact, Liu Lao sued Chu Chen. He has observed many Yuan Qinghua over the years, among the ones he has seen. At least one-third of the Yuan Qinghua has no flint red on the bottom of the fetus.

Therefore, the absence of flint red does not mean that it must be a fake, and the presence of flint red does not mean that it must be genuine, just like the Yuan blue and white in front of you.

Although the flint red on this porcelain is fake, it is too realistic, and Chu Chen also knew in advance that this porcelain was a fake, so he finally used a magnifying glass to observe that the flint red on it was a little vague and unnatural.

This is not very obvious from the real thing, even if the brick family looks at it carefully, it may not be able to recognize, let alone ordinary antique lovers.

I've seen the tire. Chu Chen then looked at the glaze, only to see that the outside of the vessel was full of bright green glaze, the glaze looked smooth, and the outer wall was decorated with flowers and grass patterns, among which there were curly grass, banana leaves, entwined branches of peony and upturned variant lotus petals, and the painting was quite excellent.

The blue and white hair color is heavy and bright and verdant, and there are black rust spots in the thick place, commonly known as "black defects", which is the unique hair color effect of using imported "Su Ni Boqing" material.

Chu Chen stroked the blue and white hair color with his hand. The blue and white glaze presents a sense of unevenness, which is also very similar to the characteristics of "Su Ni Boqing", if it is an ordinary person, it may be thought that this is genuine, but Chu Chen himself has Yuan blue and white porcelain. Therefore, if you touch it carefully, you can feel the difference between it and the real thing.

The bumpy feel of the genuine product is natural. But this piece plays with blue and white, but there is a rough feeling. And the genuine green and white glaze feels like glutinous rice, but the Yuan blue and white in front of me does not have this feeling.

Look at the hair color in reverse. The hair color of this Yuan blue and white is quite similar to the real thing, but when it is illuminated with a flashlight, it faintly shows a touch of purple, which is also inconsistent with the real thing.

In the end, Chu Chen found out two more places that were different from the real thing, but these two places were details that even experts could not necessarily see, and they were not very inconspicuous. ……

Seeing Chu Chen put the porcelain in his hand back on the table, Du Hou asked with some expectation: "Xiao Chu, how is this jade pot spring bottle?" ”

"I'm not optimistic!" Chu Chen shook his head with some regret, and then told him about the few places he had just found.

If there is only one of these inconspicuous details, it can be said that it is caused by special reasons, but there are so many differences from the real thing, no matter how much Du Hou doesn't believe it, he can only smile bitterly and shake his head.

And then Uncle Wu also gave the same answer, the one he had in his hand just now was also a fake, and then he also said a few differences, and these places are also not inconspicuous details.

In fact, if it was before, Uncle Wu really couldn't be sure, but he had carefully observed the Yuan blue and white he bought before, and when the two were compared, "Ghost Li" could no longer be hidden.

Of the three pieces of Yuan Qinghua, two of them are fakes, and the possibility that the remaining one will be genuine should be very small, of course, the authenticity of antiques can not be determined by guessing alone, so next, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu both took a look at it.

However, what made Chu Chen a little strange was that after Uncle Wu looked at it carefully, he said with some confusion: "It's really strange, I can feel that this thing is old-fashioned, but I just can't find anything wrong with it!" Xiaochen, come and see! ”

Hearing Uncle Wu say this, the other two felt very strange, not to mention Chu Chen, even Du Hou at this time didn't think that the remaining blue and white porcelain would be a fish that slipped through the net, after all, stepping on a "landmine" would buy the real thing, and the probability of winning the jackpot was smaller than buying a lottery ticket.

And it can also be seen from the middle-aged man's sophisticated tactics that the probability that he will do such a thing as picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons is also small, and Du Hou doesn't believe that that kind of thing will happen at all. ……

Chu Chen hurriedly stepped forward and took the blue and white flat vase in his hand, this bottle was rectangular, with four vivid flower-tailed dragons lining the lips and shoulders. The porcelain tire is exactly the same as the real one, and there is no flint red, the glaze is a blue and white glaze with a transparent glass texture, and the feel is delicate, which is exactly the same as the real thing.

In addition, the outer wall of this bottle is decorated with blue and white paintings, the top of the abdomen is painted with Ruyi's head, and the lower part is a dragon churning, the dragon body is "S" shaped, the brush is smooth, the dynamic is extraordinary, reflecting the superb skills of the craftsman.

The blue and white hair color is blue and gray, and the blue and white float up and the glaze is close to the glaze, the floating blue and white glaze reveals thick black silk and small dots, and the blue and white pattern is close to the glaze, slightly concave, these tables show that the blue and white porcelain used in this piece of blue and white porcelain should be a domestic material.

Moreover, these watches are exactly the same as the real Yuan blue and white domestic materials, which makes Chu Chen feel very surprised and puzzled, this is obviously a fake, how can it be exactly the same as the real thing?

Chu Chen frowned and thought for a while, and then carefully observed the outer wall of this flat bottle, and suddenly, under the observation of the magnifying glass, he felt that the blue and white black silk on the dragon's head was composed of a pattern that he was very familiar with, and the more he looked at it, the more it looked like it, which immediately surprised him.

However, just the plausible pattern does not determine that this flat bottle is a fake, so Chu Chen looked at the inner wall again, the inner wall of the Yuan blue and white porcelain vase and jar is mostly unglazed, the inner wall is a sand tire, and the sand hole on the inner wall of the tire and the thin small material stone on the inner wall are obviously visible, and the inner wall of this flat bottle is the same.

But there are two differences, if it is genuine, the wall sand tire must be slightly yellowish, not as yellow as this flat bottle, and if it is a genuine product, use a strong flashlight to obliquely look at the inner wall, and the starlight will flash in the sand hole, emitting bright light, and although this flat bottle can also emit bright light, the light looks completely different from the real thing.

However, these two points are still too vague, and this alone cannot be 100% sure that this is a fake, which made Chu Chen frown a little, but when he turned his head and saw the jade pot spring bottle he had just identified, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he quickly took a closer look at the flat bottle in his hand, and found that it was indeed the same as he thought.

"How?" Seeing Chu Chen put the porcelain in his hand back on the table, Uncle Wu and Du Hou asked in unison.

"It is indeed a problematic ......"

Chu Chen first pointed out the two problems on the inner wall just now, and then said: "I think you two should also know that Yuan blue and white cobalt materials have been used for painting for 700 years, so whether it is imported materials or domestic materials, there are different drying and sinking phenomena. But this flat bottle can't see these two phenomena, which is the biggest flaw in this fake! ”

After listening to what Chu Chen said, Uncle Wu patted the back of his head and said with some shame: "The old eyes are dizzy, and I don't even see this!" ”

Du Hou smiled bitterly: "The thing has been in my hands for so long, and I haven't even seen it, I'm even older and dizzier than you!" ”

Chu Chen couldn't say anything to the two old men's self-deprecation, so he pointed out the discovery that had just taken him aback, and said, "You use a magnifying glass to see what this place looks like!" ”

"Like what?"

Uncle Wu and Du Hou were a little inexplicable, but when they looked at it with a magnifying glass for a while, their faces gradually showed puzzled and shocked looks.

"Shhh

In an instant, the two of them gasped in unison, looked at Chu Chen with some consternation, and said, "Xiao Chen (Xiao Chu), this is fire clay?!" ”

"I thought I was wrong just now, but you two elders see it this way, then this Yuan Qinghua should be Zhang Huoni's work, and I think it is very likely to be the work of Zhang Huoni's descendants!"

Hearing what Chu Chen said, the two elders couldn't help but look at each other, at this time they were already sure that this flat bottle should be Zhang Huoclay's work, otherwise how many other people could make the fake so realistic? Not only this flat bottle, but also the other two items they thought were very likely to be made of fire clay.

Of course, whether this Zhang Huo Clay is himself or his successor can only be known after taking the porcelain to test it with an instrument. (To be continued......)
