451 cylinder repair
The moment he saw this dragon head, Chen Rui could basically make a conclusion.
This piece of porcelain is definitely a royal item from that time.
I just don’t know if it’s from the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty.
But now is not the time to study these details, and it is the first priority now.
We first cleaned up all the fragments of this porcelain.
Although the porcelain is broken, even if it is such a piece of porcelain, as long as it is exquisitely crafted and able to find out the source, it will not be cheap.
His rent of 300,000 yuan depends on these porcelain pieces to pay back the ticket price.
Soon Chen Rui cleaned it up and dug out more than fifty pieces in total.
What made him even happier was that these fragments were almost all components of unified objects.
This means that with these fragments, there is still the possibility of restoration...
When Chen Rui thought of this, he couldn't help but feel even more excited.
However, these fragments are not small.
Karen packed two travel bags, but failed to pack all the fragments.
In order for the second destruction of the rice and flour, he simply asked Karen to buy a few suitcases and come back.
He continued to dig in the pit because after cleaning up the pieces of porcelain.
He saw that there was still a faint red light on the ground, which meant that there were still something buried under the land.
Finally, after a clang, he dug out an iron box from the ground.
This iron box is tightly wrapped by several layers of oil paper. There is also a layer of sticky substance pasted on the inside of the oil paper.
Chen Rui touched it, maybe because he used the wax sealing technique back then.
But after too long, these waxes oxidize and become damp and deteriorate.
I just don’t know how the wax-wrapped iron box is going on.
After waiting for a while, Karen bought the suitcase, and the two of them carefully packed the pieces into the suitcase.
Then he packed the iron box and then pushed a few suitcases out of the yard.
After getting on the bus, I rushed back home at a speed of lightning.
When he got home, Chen Rui came to the study and turned on the computer.
At the same time, those suitcases were pushed into their study...
While referring to the blue and white patterns on the broken porcelain pieces, we searched the origins of these blue and white on the Internet.
Somehow I clicked on a local website in the capital. When I clicked on this website, Chen Rui couldn't help but slapped himself.
Finally found it!
The homepage of this website contains an introduction to a huge blue and white cloud dragon porcelain.
Moreover, in this picture, not only are there pictures of this porcelain, but you can also see that there are many pieces of porcelain underneath the porcelain, just like his box.
Chen Rui began to read the introduction of these porcelains carefully, and only then did he know after reading them.
It turns out that the full name of this thing is: Ming Jiajing blue and white cloud dragon pattern large jar!
This thing can be regarded as the largest blue and white cloud dragon pattern porcelain in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
It turned out that this dragon patterned large tank was like the emperor burning such a large dragon tank as early as the Hongwu period.
It just didn't succeed, and later it was during Emperor Xuande.
This guy was even more obsessed with firing this big dragon jar, and even ordered people to build 32 kilns in Jingdezhen for this purpose.
I came to specialize in making this dragon jar, but unfortunately I have never succeeded.
Later, when we arrived at Emperor Jiajing, there were only 16 such kilns left.
At the beginning, Emperor Jiajing did not burn dragon jars like he did.
But unexpectedly, one time during a festival in the palace, a little eunuch set off fireworks and accidentally lit a hall in the palace.
So at the request of extinguishing the fire, Emperor Jiajing had the idea of burning this dragon jar again.
At that time, this kind of dragon tank was very difficult to burn because the instrument was too large.
Moreover, the kiln workers at that time were not like the kiln firing masters today, and they knew how to regulate the temperature.
So when firing, you can only rely on feeling, but this leads to the fire of the dragon jar.
Often, a little error will lead to failure.
However, because Emperor Jiajing continued this dragon jar very much, the masters at that time still worked overtime to study.
Finally, a few years later, they mastered the technology of firing large porcelain.
Then this large cloud dragon pattern tank that was deaf and snatched was burned out.
This batch of dragon jars was initially sent to the palace and was placed in the key corner of my brother to store water.
Once there is a fire in that yard or hall, the eunuchs can also use this water to extinguish the fire.
Unfortunately, God's will makes people beat people. Later, the Forbidden City didn't go too far.
So these water tanks gradually lost their original function.
It was once used by the little eunuch in the palace to raise fish.
Later, people in the palace discovered that this big dragon jar could not only store water.
It can even be used to store rice, flour, grain and oil, which is simply not better.
However, this kind of fired water tank was gradually lost after Emperor Jiajing.
So when Emperor Wanli died, he wanted to use two blue and white cloud dragon jars to bury them.
In the end, we had to use the Jiajing period, because when he was in power, this blue and white cloud dragon pattern water tank was never successfully burned.
In this way, this large cloud dragon pattern jar has been spread from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty...
But how did the owner of this house get these big jars out of the palace?
Chen Rui found the source and introduction of these blue and white cloud dragon pattern fragments online.
However, it is unknown what the source of these water tank fragments in the Hu Liu family are.
He continued to look down on the website, but he was shocked when he saw new content.
Because this blue and white cloud dragon pattern large jar is extremely rare in existence.
Therefore, even if this kind of large tank is not intact, even if it is broken porcelain pieces, the price is very strong.
For example, the porcelain piece with Wuzhao Yunlong can be sold for 50,000 yuan.
If it is the one with the leading stock, it can sell for more than 100,000 yuan.
Seeing these introductions below this website, Chen Rui touched his chin and thought about it.
Now that my investment of 300,000 yuan has finally recovered.
However, these fragments must be worth the price, but Chen Rui did not want to sell all of them.
He thought about whether he could find an opportunity to repair these fragments.
If you can really save a large tank, that would be amazing.
Because he also searched the Internet for auctions about this large water tank.
Just at the end of last year, there was a suburban record of a water tank of the same type in Beijing.
At that time, the water tank was sold at a price of 1.38 million yuan.
You know, that water tank is also a repaired water tank.
And this kind of water tank, especially those with complete quality, almost no longer exists.
The East and West were burned during the reign of Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, and later the Qing Dynasty inherited these water tanks.
Later, two Opium Wars were experienced, and warlords changed frequently during the Republic of China, resulting in constant disputes.
