Chapter 632 Zigang Mark Kuifeng Pattern Jade

John Carru led Li Yi into a room at the end of the corridor. The room was about fifty square meters and was arranged in the shape of an exhibition room. In addition to about twenty or thirty oil paintings hanging on the four walls, there was also a long two-story stand-shaped booth in the middle, which was filled with various antiques, which looked like more than a hundred pieces.

"Mr. Li Yi, I have asked someone to pick out all the items you like, and the rest are basically here. Anyway, there is still time, so you can read it slowly."

Li Yi nodded and glanced over the coffee table in front of the sofa in a corner of the room. The collections in the photos he picked out were placed here.

“This one…”

The first thing Li Yi read was the "Stummy Pain Stick" because he was really curious. Who could imitate Zhang Xu's imitation, but his reputation was not obvious.

However, this work is indeed a bit strange, because if you look at it from the paper alone, this paper looks very much like jade board paper produced in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the oldest rice paper, and from the ink marks, it should never be written in modern times...

After carefully studying the seal stamped on the paper, Li Yi shook his head. This position should be a collection seal, but this is also in line with the situation of this "Stummy Pain Stick", because Zhang Xu should not be narcissistic to leave seals and signatures on a self-diagnosed medical case. But what exactly is the reason that keeps this calligraphy so complete, but this seal is broken and broken?

He sighed softly, activated the spirit-reflecting card, and then raised his eyebrows. This was really the original work of Zhang Xu!

Resisting the excitement in his heart, Li Yi gently put the calligraphy aside, and carefully observed the many seals on the rubbing of the "Holy Mother's Post". After confirming that this was an authentic product, he picked up the "Lin You Fengwu" imperial treasure and dragon button white jade seal...

"Mr. John Carru, these are all fine, but what about the Ming Dynasty gold cloud dragon pattern vermilion lacquer roof box?"

Li Yi didn't know the specific size of the box, but just from the photos, it should be a big guy, and there was indeed no jewelry box that matched the characteristics in these collections.

"That box is in another place, but I have sent someone to pick it up and it should be delivered soon."

"Well, although these things are precious, they should not be as valuable as the Scream. Mr. John Carru, can I take a look at your other collections?"

John Carru reached out to make a request position, then frowned with the article "Stummy Pain Stick".

Li Yi first walked around the room. There were 26 oil paintings of different styles hanging on the wall. Among them, there were as many as 8 master-level works that Li Yi could recognize. The rest were not used by the spirit-based cards, and he didn't know how many of them were artistic treasures. However, it would not be too bad to be listed with master-level works.

After reading the oil painting, Li Yi turned his attention to the booth, skipped over two Western antiques, and reached out to pick up the third antique.

This is a Kuifeng-patterned jade cube carved in Hetian green and white jade. It is about 10 cm high and has a diameter of about 7 cm. It is composed of two parts: the body and the cover. It looks very similar to the cup we use now.

The body of the vessel is carved with Kui pattern, phoenix pattern and hook cloud pattern. The center of the cover is a circular button, and there are three lions looking back and looking around. There are three beast-shaped feet at the bottom of the jade trunk, and there is a ring-shaped handle on the outer wall. The handle is decorated with pictorial buttons, and the elephant nose is naturally curved inward to form a ring-shaped shape.

The wine is a wine vessel. It was first seen in the late Warring States Period. In the Qin Dynasty, the cups were used in parallel, and it was even more popular in the Han Dynasty. However, few physical objects of wine were found after the Han Dynasty. This exquisite jade wine, even without any professional knowledge, can be seen that it is absolutely impossible to be a thing of the Han Dynasty. Moreover, from the clever and clumsy pattern of Kuifeng pattern, Li Yi vaguely saw a little familiar shadow. Could it be that this is Lu Zigang's work?

Li Yi is not unfamiliar with Lu Zigang's works. On the contrary, because he has a white jade cup and a real Zigang jade plaque, he is quite familiar with some of Lu Zigang's techniques. In his opinion, this jade cup is probably also the work of this master.

Unlike ordinary jade carvers, most of Lu Zigang's jade carvings have signatures, but the locations of many signatures are a bit unexpected. Li Yi first carefully checked the cup lid, then checked the cup body, and even the inner wall of the ring handle, but he did not find the signature left. He couldn't help but wonder, was he misunderstood?

When the spirit-recording card was activated, a cool air flowed by, and Li Yi's brows became even tighter. This was a jade carved by Lu Zigang. However, where did this guy leave the style? Or was this a Zigang jade without style?

Shaking his head and about to put things down, he suddenly moved his heart and turned the jade pendant over, staring at the end of the elephant nose for a while, and couldn't help laughing. This guy was indeed cunning and actually thought of making a fuss on the elephant's nostrils!

This jade trunk naturally bent into a ring, forming a large and small ring with the handle, up and down. However, after the elephant trunk bent over, it did not completely come into contact with the handle, but left a space between the two with about three or four millimeters.

The text is to use the gap less than half a centimeter to be carved by Lu Zigang on the nose of the elephant trunk, but the traces are very shallow. I think it is because it is not easy to use force and the tools are not very handy. Li Yi guessed that he should have repeatedly engraved it with a bent front end carving knife, which left the words "Zigang" on it.

This is really a scam, because if you can't imagine, even if you notice this gap, even if you don't know the right angle, you won't be able to see the textbook at all. In this way, even if you infer from the carving work, it may be considered suspected because of the textbook, and its value may be greatly reduced...

However, Li Yi liked this approach very much, because if John Carru and the others did not discover this secret, wouldn’t he take a big advantage when he bargained later?

Just as he put the jade pendant down, a light knock came from the door, and then the door opened. Edmund, who had been separated from them from Oslo, walked in. Following him was a young man holding a huge cardboard box in his hand.

"Mr. Li Yi, the wooden box you want is here."

"oh?"

Li Yi walked quickly to the door, carefully took the cardboard box away, and then took off a layer of soft animal fur that was covered outside the box. He felt that the eyes suddenly lit up. What a beautiful wooden box! (To be continued.)

ps: I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance! Although the updates and reductions have been made due to various reasons, everyone still has strong support as always, which really makes me really not know what to say, so I can only scream here, thank you!

"I want to visit it on your phone."
