Chapter 1015, 1016 Ge Kiln Porcelain(1/2)
Li Yang looked a little surprised and walked in that direction unnaturally.
There are a total of thirteen layers of apertures on this treasure. According to the calculation of one aperture for sixty years, this is something from seven hundred and eighty years ago. It is a real old object.
Based on this time calculation, this treasure is a product of the middle and late Southern Song Dynasty.
As Li Yang walked, he kept looking at the porcelain in the three-dimensional picture, nodding silently in his heart.
Li Yang walked forward, and Sandara and the others followed. Li Yang's eyes jumped slightly when he felt the people following behind him, and then he walked to an antique shop on the roadside.
The thing he saw was the treasure displayed in the antique shop, but it was not this antique shop.
After looking around casually for a while, Li Yang went to another store. The items in these two stores were very ordinary and there was nothing eye-catching.
The reason why he wasted some time here was simply because he didn't want to be so conspicuous.
This is a very good treasure. If you rush over and buy it, it will arouse the suspicion of people around you. Li Yang is not alone now. If he visits a few more stores, this suspicion will disappear.
Ten minutes later, Li Yang slowly walked into the store he discovered with his special ability.
This is a small antique store, only more than 40 square meters. The arrangement of things inside is not neat, which makes people feel a little messy.
This is a very ordinary antique shop.
"What do you bosses want?"
There were only two waiters and one boss in the store. As soon as Li Yang and others came in, the boss ran over to receive them personally. People who often do business have their own eyesight when it comes to people.
At least Li Yang and the others look like big customers.
Li Yang smiled, said nothing, and walked directly to the center of the hall. Looking at a small bowl-like object on the shelf opposite, Li Yang walked over, followed by Sandara and An Wenjun.
Came over.
Seeing Li Yang looking at this treasure, the shop owner frowned and followed him over.
"Boss, this is a water bowl imitated from Ge kiln in the Qing Dynasty. Although it is an imitation of the Qing Dynasty, the imitation is very realistic and very good!"
The shop owner introduced softly. When he heard him say the word "qing imitation", Li Yang's lips raised an unnatural smile. The authentic Ge Kiln porcelain from the late Southern Song Dynasty was actually regarded as a "qing imitation". No wonder this porcelain appeared.
In a small shop like this.
The thirteen-layer aperture clearly shows that this is definitely not something from the Qing Dynasty.
At that time, Nurhachi's ancestors were probably not even born yet.
"Can you bring me something to look at?"
Li Yang asked softly with a slight smile on his lips. The store owner hesitated for a moment, then carefully took down the treasure and handed it to Li Yang.
Holding the thing in his hand, it felt cool. Li Yang nodded slightly, and the smile on his lips became wider.
After getting his hands on it, Li Yang was even more certain that this was not a Qing imitation, but a truly authentic Ge Kiln porcelain. The reason why it was regarded as a Qing imitation was related to some traces of the latent method remaining on it.
This piece of porcelain was concealed using the hidden method, but was later removed.
Unfortunately, the removal method was incorrect, and there were many traces left on it, so much so that it was regarded as an imitation. The remaining parts did have the characteristics of an imitation.
Also, the level of the owner of this store is limited. If he were a first-class expert like Bai Ming, Mao Lao or Teacher Ma, he would definitely have doubts when he saw this piece of porcelain, and if he continued to identify it, he would definitely be able to find the problems.
After all, the hidden method above has been destroyed, and it is not difficult to find the problem.
At this time, Li Yang also began to agree with everyone calling Kunming and Yunnan a cornucopia. This is indeed an undeveloped land, or in other words, a land that has not been developed by first-class experts. There are some extremely
Hidden treasures exist.
"how much is this?"
After touching for a while, Li Yang raised his head and asked the shopkeeper with a smile. The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, with a little hesitation on his face.
This water bowl is actually the treasure of his store, which attracts people to use on a daily basis, so when Li Yang first took a fancy to this thing, he behaved like that.
But for a small shop like them, there is no such thing as not for sale. As long as the price is right, they will definitely sell it.
"Boss, you have really good eyesight. I won't hide it from you. This is the best treasure in our store. If you want it, you should at least ask for this amount!"
The shop owner thought for a while, then stretched out his hand and waved five fingers in front of Li Yang's face.
"Five million?"
Li Yang asked softly, but the store owner didn't say anything and stood there quietly. This was indeed the price in his mind.
Five hundred thousand, a better Qing Dynasty imitation Ge Kiln porcelain is indeed worth this price. The value of Qing Dynasty imitation Ge Kiln porcelain is not low at present. This is mainly due to Emperor Qianlong.
Qianlong loved collecting, especially Ge Kiln porcelain. He especially loved the open look of Ge Kiln porcelain, and he was full of praise for the "golden iron wire" of Ge Kiln.
Because of his love, Jingdezhen specially fired a batch of imitation Ge kiln porcelain. These porcelains are very well made and naturally of high value. The current market price ranges from 200,000 to over one million.
The current piece is regarded as this type of imitation Ge Kiln porcelain.
Seeing Li Yang lower his head, the shopkeeper didn't say anything. He was a little hesitant about whether to sell this treasure, but the price of 500,000 yuan was indeed not low, and it was just a very ordinary water bowl.
Water bowl, also known as water injection, also called inkstone drop, is a study utensil used to add water to the inkstone pool. It is known as the fifth treasure of the study.
Water bowls are both practical utensils and ornamental utensils. They are available in porcelain, wood, and jade. Literati always like to make the things they use more elegant.
Last year, Li Yang's auction company sold a mid-Qing Dynasty official kiln blue and white water bowl. The transaction price was 1.8 million, which can be said to be very good.
Li Yang raised his head, bargained briefly with the shopkeeper, and then bought the item.
In the antique circle, no matter how accurate you are in seeing something or how much you like the item, don't let people see that you want to buy it all at once, otherwise other mishaps are likely to occur.
Before the baby is sold, anything can happen.
But this is not absolute. Li Yang did this just to avoid this kind of thing from happening.
Five hundred thousand, directly swipe the card and sign for payment. This real Ge Kiln porcelain fell into the hands of Li Yang. Looking at the water bowl in front of him, Li Yang was in a good mood, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger.
He already has a Ru kiln brush washer in his hand. When he went to Toronto, he won another Jun kiln double-eared statue. In addition to the Ge kiln water bowl in his hand, he was one of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. Ru Guan Ge Junding
He already has three masterpieces of porcelain produced, and it is not impossible to collect them from five famous kilns.
Back then, when the Kong family in Thailand wanted to buy the luminous cup from Li Yang, they offered to exchange porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty plus cash, but in the end Li Yang did not agree.
After Li Yang and the others left, the shopkeeper looked at the empty seats on the shelf and smiled to himself.
Five hundred thousand is not a low price for this water bowl. With this five hundred thousand, he can buy a better blue and white porcelain, which is better than using this water bowl as a store treasure.
Of course, if he knew that this water bowl was not a Qing Dynasty imitation, but an authentic Ge Kiln porcelain, I am afraid he would not think so, and would regret it and hit the wall.
"Mr. Li, if it's broken like this, is it worth anything?"
After leaving the antique store, Sandara asked in a low voice. In fact, he had wanted to ask this question before, but he was too embarrassed to ask it in the store.
Li Yang froze suddenly, and He Jie and An Wenjun also opened their mouths.
After a while, several people laughed. He Jie laughed the most exaggeratedly and squatted there holding his stomach. Even Gao Feng and others were also smiling.
Sandara was puzzled by their laughter, and her face was full of doubts.
No matter how good he speaks Chinese, he is not Chinese after all, and especially does not understand the ancient Chinese culture, so he mistook the beautiful openings of the Ge Kiln for cracks.
"Sundara, the crack on this porcelain is indeed a defect, but it is not absolute. There is a kind of beauty called defective beauty, do you know?"
"Beautiful flaws, you mean, this is normal?"
Sandara's eyes widened. He didn't know much about Ge Kiln porcelain, but he was not stupid. Although he didn't understand everything about Li Yang's explanation, he got a general idea. At this moment, Sandara's face also changed.
Turning red, he finally understood why He Jie and the others were laughing, and now he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"Yes, that's it!"
Li Yang smiled and continued: "Originally, cracking of porcelain pieces is a bad sign. It means that this piece of porcelain has been burned out. If it appears in other kilns, such porcelain will usually be damaged directly and must be re-fired.
, but there is a kind of porcelain that is different, its porcelain pieces are deliberately cracked, this is Ge Kiln porcelain!"
He Jie and An Wenjun both know something about what Li Yang said. Ge Kiln porcelain is very famous, and even people who don't know how to collect it know something about it.
I'm afraid only Sundala, a foreigner, doesn't know this and thinks this kind of crack is the crack of jade.
If the jadeite cracks, it will be a huge loss.
Li Yang lifted the box on the handle and said softly: "There is a story inside this crack. According to legend, there was a man named Zhang Sukeng in Longquan in the Song Dynasty. He was a famous porcelain worker. He had two sons.
They are called Zhang Shengyi and Zhang Shenger respectively!"
Sandara, He Jie and An Wenjun all stopped there and listened to Li Yang tell this story.
"Zhang Sunggen is good at firing celadon. His two sons have followed him to learn the art since they were young, and their skills are both very high. After Zhang Sunggen passed away, the two brothers separated, each opened a kiln and fired porcelain separately. The eldest brother is very fond of making porcelain.
He is smart, his level is better than the second child, and he is good at learning and studying. Finally, he fired the famous 'Purple Mouth Iron Foot' celadon, which was appreciated by the emperor, who even specially ordered him to bake such porcelain!"
"The second child is not as good as the eldest brother, and he is very small-minded. Seeing that the eldest son is so favored, he becomes jealous. When the eldest son is not paying attention, he throws the clay into the glaze vat where the eldest porcelain is fired. After the porcelain comes out of this kiln, all the people
The celadon glaze on the surface of the porcelain is cracked, there are many cracks, it’s unspeakably ugly!”
"The boss wants to cry without tears. The emperor is waiting for his tribute. If he fails to pay it on time, his whole family will be beheaded. After his wife and daughter learned about it, they also cried with him. The daughter felt sorry for her father and gave him money while crying.
I was pouring tea, but accidentally spilled a pot of tea on the porcelain in front of the boss!"
After a pause, Li Yang continued: "The boss usually likes to drink strong tea, and my daughter makes strong tea. After this pot of strong tea was poured on the porcelain that had just come out of the kiln, the entire porcelain immediately changed drastically. Those
The originally ugly cracks turned into brown lines, and the boss stayed there on the spot, staring blankly at the changes in the porcelain in front of him!"
"My daughter knew she had gotten into trouble, so she hurriedly wiped off the porcelain that had been splashed with strong tea. After cleaning, the porcelain no longer looked cracked and ugly, and every opening looked so natural and harmonious!"
