Chapter 1005: See Strange Again

After everyone present observed the red and green colored jade pot spring vase on the table, Zhao Xueyi couldn't wait to say: "Old Wu, tell me your opinion first." ”

Everyone is an acquaintance, and Uncle Wu is not polite, so he said, "Okay, I'll just say a few points." I have also studied red and green colored porcelain, according to some information, I think the era of the creation of red and green colored porcelain is about the middle and late Song Dynasty, flourishing in the middle of the Jin Dynasty, that is, in the second half of the 12th century, and the Yuan Dynasty continued to burn, about the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. I don't know if you have any questions about this? ”

Seeing that everyone said that there was no problem, Uncle Wu continued: "During the Song and Jin dynasties, low-temperature green glaze began to be used to decorate white-glazed porcelain, which was welcomed by the common people at that time. Although the red color was created and fired by the Ding kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty, its technology was first borrowed from the Cizhou kiln to obtain the effect of white glaze alum red and beautiful. However, the perfect combination of red and green colors, the decoration of white-glazed porcelain, and the secondary firing at low temperature, became the innovation of Cizhou kiln. ”

"During the Northern Song Dynasty, the output of Cizhou kiln was quite large, but the porcelain unearthed from the tombs of the Northern Song Dynasty was mainly white porcelain, Yaozhou kiln celadon and Dingyao white porcelain, and Cizhou kiln artifacts were rarely reported, so it can be seen that the Cizhou kiln porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty was rarely appreciated and used by the upper ruling class and scholars. Therefore, there is no record in the Song Dynasty literature, and it was not described until the early Ming Dynasty in the book "Gegu Yao". ”

Hearing this, Du Hongguo immediately understood what Uncle Wu meant, and said, "Mr. Wu, you just said that it was not reported, didn't you say that there was no report?" ”

Uncle Wu nodded and said, "Yes, it is true, but so far, at least in the relevant information." There is no mention of the records of red and green porcelain excavations in Song Dynasty tombs, and of course I am not sure that they have not been found. But that's not the point I'm talking about, the point is. Do you know why this happens? ”

Du Hongguo shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Uncle Wu explained: "The decorative style of red and green colored porcelain absorbs the nutrients of folk New Year paintings, and takes the color of red and green folk festive activities as its basic color, and the painting method also absorbs the considerable craftsmanship of Cizhou kiln, so it is very popular with the people." ”

However, the red and green colored porcelain of the Song Dynasty also has its obvious shortcomings, specifically the porcelain tire is thick but not white, the decoration is not fine, and the color is easy to fall off. And because of that. It was very different from the aesthetic tastes of the royal family, eunuchs and literati at that time. What they are looking for is exquisite Ru, Guan, Ge, Ding, Jun, and black glazed tea sets such as rabbit cups suitable for tea fighting. ”

This is probably the reason why in the excavation of the Song tomb, the red and green colored porcelain has not yet been seen. However, the Jin people prefer this kind of porcelain depicted in red, red, green and green colors, so red and green colored porcelain burial objects can occasionally be seen in the tombs of the Jin people. In addition, the Yuan Dynasty seems to have a lot of love for the red and green colored porcelain of the Cizhou kiln. ”

"So, the question is, if the red and green colored porcelain of the Song Dynasty can have the fetus, glaze and painting work of Mr. Du's red and green colored jade pot spring vase, do you think that in the Song Dynasty, those royal families and scholars and others will not like it?"

Du Hongguo looked at his things. found that no matter from the perspective of the glaze, there should be no shortcomings of the red and green colored porcelain of the Song Dynasty, but he still insisted that the things were from the Song Dynasty, and he said: "Since the Song Dynasty can have five precious famous kilns." It's normal to have red and green colored porcelain of this quality. ”

Zhao Xueyi was speechless and said: "Lao Du, can you not make something out of nothing!" The red and green colored porcelain of the Song Dynasty is at that level, and you can change it? ”

Du Hongguo said eloquently: "It happened hundreds of years ago. Who can be 100% sure? Maybe this jade pot spring vase of mine is the work that was improved at that time? ”

Zhao Xueyi heard this. There was a feeling of weakness all over his body, and he said, "Lao Du." According to what you say, do you still have blue and white porcelain comparable to the Song Dynasty in the Ming and Qing dynasties? ”

Du Hongguo was surprised: "Huh! How do you know, I don't think I ever mentioned this to you, did I? I'll tell you......"

Looking at Du Hongguo's eyebrows dancing and introducing his so-called Qinghua porcelain in the Song Dynasty, everyone's expressions were blank for a while, if you want to say that there was blue and white porcelain in the Song Dynasty, it really can't be denied, but to say that the blue and white porcelain in the Song Dynasty is comparable to the Ming and Qing dynasties, isn't that a joke?

What's more, Du Hongguo still swears so much, it is completely because he has already decided that his things are genuine. If you want to convince such a person, it's completely a cow talk!

Seeing that Du Hongguo wanted to speak at length, Zhao Xueyi hurriedly made a pause gesture and said, "Old Du, can you stop for a moment, let's solve the matter of your jade pot spring bottle first." ”

"Okay." Du Hongguo stopped a little unsatisfied, and then waited for Uncle Wu to continue to explain.

Uncle Wu glanced at Zhao Xueyi, and when he saw that he motioned for himself to continue, he continued: "Mr. Du, so far, from the perspective of excavation and archaeological research, the creation of ancient ceramics is closely related to people's living habits, aesthetic standards and technical conditions at that time. ”

"Generally speaking, ceramics can reflect the characteristics of each era in terms of glaze, decoration, and glaze, and the shape is more prominent in this regard. Do you think that your jade pot spring vase was improved in the Song Dynasty, but in any case, it must also conform to the aesthetic concept of the time, right? But your jade pot spring vase is obviously not the style of the Song Dynasty! ”

Du Hongguo frowned when he heard this, and said, "I really haven't studied this aspect, Mr. Wu, since you say so, what kind of style do you think this bottle is?" ”

Uncle Wu said: "You see, the style of this jade pot spring vase is xiàn, the edge of the mouth is larger, the neck is slender and slender, the lower abdomen has no sagging, and the bottom foot is slightly skimmed outward...... Therefore, judging from the style of the bottle, it should be a characteristic of the early Yuan Dynasty. In addition, the technique of painting ...... Content...... and so on, are also the style of the early Yuan Dynasty, therefore, from these points, this should be only the early Yuan Dynasty style of red and green colored porcelain jade pot spring vase. ”

After hearing Uncle Wu's words, Du Hongguo said: "Teacher Wu, do you mean that this thing is made in the Yuan Dynasty?" ”

Uncle Wu shook his head and explained: "Judging from the artifacts unearthed from the tombs of the early Jin and Yuan dynasties, the shape, color of the materials, and the painting work of the ceramics are generally simple, clumsy, and not very bright! But this jade pot spring vase of yours ......"

Next, Uncle Wu explained this jade pot spring bottle one by one, during which Chu Chen also made some additions, it can be said that he has explained in detail the reason why this jade pot spring bottle is a fake, as long as it is a normal person, there should be no more doubts.

But obviously this Du Hongguo is not a normal person, he pondered for a while before saying: "Thank you for the explanation, but I reserve my opinion!" ”

Everyone saw that Uncle Wu said that his mouth was dry, and in exchange for such a result, there was no need to say that he was depressed.

Maybe Du Hongguo also knew that everyone didn't want to see him, so he packed up his things and said goodbye to everyone, and only Zhao Xueyi sent him out of the gate at the scene.

After the others left, Chu Chen asked curiously, "Dad, did you know this person before?" ”

Uncle Wu smiled bitterly and said, "I know, but I don't know why your Uncle Zhao brought him here......

It turns out that Du Hongguo has been collecting for about several years, in the eyes of friends who know him, although he is older, but he is very studious, and often learns the relevant knowledge of collecting, he used to collect miscellaneous items, but the year before last, he began to only accept porcelain, and only closed the official kiln, he also has a famous saying, "I have said to my Tibetan friends, I only collect official kilns and porcelain with special significance."

But Du Hongguo said that these official kilns and porcelain with special significance, the price of the recovery is very low, whenever he hears others say how it is possible to receive good things so cheap, he always does not hesitate to give others a strong counterattack.

Here's what he said: "Spending tens of thousands of dollars to buy a thing, it's not like you're still receiving a fake!" The collections I recovered have all been identified by 'experts', and there are already 6 pairs of Kangxi official kilns in the present generation! You're so powerful, it's not like something can't be sold! ”

Often this remark can always have the miraculous effect of a blockbuster and a strong earthquake to the audience. What's even more strange is that Du Hongguo's own Ah Q aura automatically blocks bad remarks about his collection, and he firmly believes in his own vision.

Moreover, Du Hongguo has a special complex for "one pair", and he pays attention to the best pair in everything, and pairs of antiques are his favorite.

The vendor who sold him always told him that this pair of porcelain was the ancestral heirloom of the family, and that the elder of the family had died, and the brother and sister had separated, one for each person, and if you said you liked it, I would go and find the other one for you. Such a strange reason has been used no less than seven or eight times, but he can still buy things every time.

Du Hongguo's mind made Chu Chen and the others all feel that Uncle Wu seemed to be talking about some bizarre story, is there really such a strange person in the world?

When Uncle Wu said this, Zhao Xueyi happened to walk in from outside the door, and he smiled: "Old Wu, you don't know that this guy just recently, in less than a week, he received a pair of Song Dynasty colorful bottles that he thought had arrived." ”

He also spent 100 yuan to go to XX Company to show a well-known "expert", and the other party told him that they were all national treasure-level things, and he was so happy that he almost hung the banner out. ”

"Moreover, yesterday he called me and said, 'Old Zhao, I tell you a secret, don't tell anyone else! I received more than a dozen pieces of brother kiln today! It was unearthed a few days ago! It's so beautiful! ’……”

Hearing this, Chu Chen almost squirted out the tea he had just drunk in his mouth, this Du Hongguo was already "outrageously powerful", and it was a fight with a certain universe power. (To be continued......)
