Chapter 891: Reappearing

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Lin Shengfu suddenly said, "Oh! It turns out that this is the case, that is, it is unreliable to verify jade by scratching glass? ”

Chu Chen replied: "That's true, just like the glass knife we usually use, we can't say that the artificial diamond on it will be jade, right?" ”

"That's too!" Lin Shengfu smiled and nodded, and when he looked at his jade monkey again, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know if he was dissatisfied with giving this jade monkey to his friend, or the expert in the appraisal, or both.

Chu Chen said: "Mr. Lin, I think it's possible that your friend has also been deceived." ”

"How?" Lin Shengfu hurriedly asked.

Chu Chen replied: "Because Khotanese stone is more similar to Khotanese jade, its main component is quartzite, so it is impossible for a formal testing agency to identify it as jade." Therefore, if your friend gives you a national appraisal certificate, then the certificate must be fake. ”

Lin Shengfu recalled carefully, and then said with a smile: "I remember that the appraisal certificate is indeed a national brand, and it seems that my friend should have been deceived." My friend's shrewd guy was also deceived, and it seems that you should be careful when buying antiques and the like! ”

Chu Chen deeply believes that the appreciation potential of antiques is great, and treasure appreciation programs on TV have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, which of course allows the majority of people to know the investment channel of antiques, but also allows some scammers to take advantage of it, and all kinds of deception are also endless.

Over the years, Chu Chen has also seen a lot of various deceptions, and many of them are still deceived in the name of "experts".

For example, the summer before last. Chu Chen followed Zhou Wenping to participate in a collection salon event, and several internationally renowned experts who were said to be from Xiangjiang came to the scene. He speaks with a thick southern accent and looks quite scholarly on the outside.

More than a dozen Tibetan friends who participated in the event had a great conversation with these experts. When the exchange was almost over, the expert said: "In order to communicate with you with a purpose, we also brought a few things with us and took them out to discuss with you." Subsequently, he took out a few pieces of blue and white porcelain from the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty.

If these pieces of porcelain are genuine, they are all "heavy" for the collectors present, and there are few opportunities to get their hands on them, so everyone is very excited, and a Tibetan friend bought one of the porcelains at a price of hundreds of thousands of yuan on the spot.

In fact. At that time, Chu Chen and Zhou Wenping were also very greedy for those porcelains, but unfortunately they were shy in their pockets, and they couldn't afford to buy them even if they wanted to. But what happened next made them all feel very lucky.

It turned out that the Tibetan friend showed the porcelain to a friend who worked in the cultural and museum department, only to find that the edge of the porcelain had been repaired, and the thing was not fake, but the price was greatly discounted.

Actually, this Tibetan friend is usually quite careful. It's just that at that time, I saw that it was an "expert" from other places, especially an internationally renowned "expert", so I was careless.

So, if you want to be in the antique market, don't be eye-catching. The key is to have a normal heart, not to be lucky, and not to be emotional. Keep a clear head.

Speaking of what he just said, Chu Chen thought about it afterwards that there were obvious flaws in it. If nothing else, it's the price of the porcelain. In fact, it is worth the suspicion. You must know that although the price at that time was already considered a high price in the domestic market, it was at least one or two percent lower than the price in Xiangjiang.

Since those experts are from Xiangjiang, why did he sell porcelain at a low price here, are they all good people who sacrifice themselves?

However, at that time, everyone was focused on those few pieces of porcelain, and they didn't think about this problem for a while. Therefore, when buying antiques, you must keep a clear head, in a word, that is, you would rather miss than buy wrong.

Subsequently, Chu Chen went on to identify the things below. Because there are many things, and I can't see it too fast, I have been identified one after another for more than an hour before it comes to an end.

There are not many guests today, Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu also sat in the reception room to watch the excitement, drinking tea, while commenting on some utensils from time to time, it was also very pleasant.

"Huh! This is? ”

When Lin Shengfu took out a small jar from the box, the sharp-eyed old five suddenly sighed in surprise, which also attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing this situation, Lin Shengfu explained with a smile: "This is what I saw from a friend the day before yesterday, my friend said that it was Yuan Qinghua using domestic materials, I saw that it was good, so I wanted to ask for something, but my friend refused, I grinded for a long time, and he promised to let me enjoy it for a few days." I just want Chu Shao to help me identify it, if the thing is true, I won't return it to him! ”

Chu Chen laughed: "Mr. Lin, you are not afraid that he will find you desperately." ”

Lin Shengfu grinned and said: "Then what's there to be afraid of, this kid has never beaten me since he was a child, even if he looks for me to fight hard, he will be beaten by me......"

Chu Chen smiled secretly when he heard this, and as far as Lin Shengfu was concerned, he expressed serious doubts about what Lin Shengfu said.

During the joke, Uncle Wu and the others had already taken a cursory look at the small jar in front of them, which looked like Yuan Qinghua, but Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu had disagreements about the authenticity of this porcelain.

Lao Wu said: "The painting method of the Yuan blue and white pattern is, the pen is full of material, if it is a line painting, it is outlined with a uniform speed of the pen, if it is painted, it is extended to the green material, and a smooth and even color block appears. And the painting technique of this small jar is such a characteristic. Therefore, I think the probability of Yuan Qinghua is relatively high. ”

Zhou Wenping retorted: "I admit the characteristics of the Yuan Qinghua you said, but if you recall the boss's Yuan Qinghua, you can find that although the painting method of this small jar looks like the style of the Yuan Dynasty, if you look closely, there is still a gap between it and the real Yuan Qinghua......"

Uncle Wu watched the two arguing, so he asked Chu Chen with a smile: "Xiao Chen, what do you think of this small can?" ”

"Let me take a look!" Chu Chen started to observe, and then said with a smile: "Isn't this the same as the porcelain you collected before, and it is also the work of Cizhou kiln."

"Cizhou kiln?" Listening to what Chu Chen said, Lin Shengfu was slightly stunned, and Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu also looked quite surprised.

"Yes, this is the work of Cizhou kiln!"

Uncle Wu smiled slightly: "Perhaps, you all just pay attention to the positive kiln porcelain such as white ground and black flowers and black glaze in Cizhou kiln, but in fact, Cizhou kiln is a very large system, in addition to the main kiln, there are many partial kilns, and among these partial kilns, there are also blue and white porcelain, and some porcelain is not bad." ”

"Just like Mr. Lin's small jar, it should be a product of a partial kiln in the north of the Cizhou kiln system, which belongs to a kind of soil blue and white at the mouth of the folk kiln. I also have two similar small jars, and I also used them as Yuan Qinghua at first, as treasures, and later, after listening to Liu Lao's guidance, I finally figured it out. ”

"The characteristics of this kiln mouth are mainly that it is completely free from the traditional ornamentation system, and has a pattern similar to that of the Yuan Dynasty. For example, there is a straight or curved circle at the bottom, similar to a lotus petal pattern. Some of the main patterns are huge peony flowers, and some are open patterns. The last layer has a one-way curved pattern or other decorations. ”

And because this kind of clay blue and white is not in the mainstream porcelain, the craftsmen are also passed down from generation to generation, and the decoration of the product even retains the Song and Yuan styles until the Republic of China. This will lead some dogmatic and paper-based people astray......"

Speaking of which, Uncle Wu pointed out the other places of this kind of porcelain that are different from Yuan Qinghua one by one.

After listening to Uncle Wu's explanation, Lin Shengfu said with a smile: "Today is really insightful, when I go back, I will return this thing to my friend!" ”

Everyone laughed, but at this moment, Chu Chen's eyes were attracted by a blue and white landscape figure bottle that Uncle Wu had already identified. Because, this bottle and the blue and white landscape figure bottle he bought from the fourth master's house in Wucheng look the same whether it is the shape or the landscape figure.

So, Chu Chen hurriedly stepped forward and took the bottle in his hand.

At this time, Uncle Wu spoke: "Xiaochen, you are a bit of an unpredictable prophet, if I am not mistaken, this bottle should be the work of Zhang Huoni during the Republic of China." ”

Hearing the words "Zhang Huoclay", Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu didn't care about discussing the small blue and white jar of Cizhou kiln, and walked over in three or two steps.

Chu Chen first looked at the bottom of the bottle, and sure enough, it was the same as the bottle he bought before, and the money left at the bottom was indeed the word "fire clay".

Seeing this situation, Zhou Wenping was surprised and said: "Hey, it's really strange that Zhang Huoni still has a model that leaves his name." ”

Lao Wu nodded and said, "It's really strange, it's the first time I've seen it." ”

Chu Chen smiled and said: "I also bought this kind of bottle when I was in Wucheng before, like this bottle, except for the more attractive style left, there is not much outstanding, and I don't know why he made this pair of bottles." ”

Just a moment ago, he had already looked at this bottle to the bottom, and like the bottle he bought before, there was nothing hidden inside this bottle. However, there was one thing he had noticed, the position and movement of the characters on this bottle were different from the one he bought, and he didn't know if it implied anything.

Lao Wu said: "I think Zhang Huoni's brain is different from our normal people, maybe he made this pair of bottles, just because he thought it was fun." ”

At this time, Lin Shengfu asked: "This, take the liberty of asking, what kind of sacredness is Zhang Huoni you are talking about?" ”

"He was a master of forging ancient porcelain in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China......" Chu Chen briefly introduced Zhang Huoni's deeds to Sen Shengfu. (To be continued......)
