Chapter 47 Rare Opaline Porcelain

After hearing this, Hanfeng took it and looked at it carefully. He didn't put it in his palm, and the identification image didn't come out. He just held it with a few fingers and looked at it.

This bowl is relatively large, with a diameter of 30 centimeters at the mouth and a height of 20 centimeters, which is as big as a large soup bowl used at home today. It is completely white and has no pattern on the outer wall. I don’t know if it is because of its age or because it is deliberately aged.

The white color is very impure, with yellowish tinges in the white, and even grayish tinges in some places. If you look closely at the inner wall of the bowl, you can see a faint lotus pattern on the bottom of the bowl. Looking at the bottom of the bowl again, the fetal feet look like those of an old thing.

In the middle, there are two dark blue traditional Chinese characters: Privy Council.

When Hanfeng saw the word "Prince", his brows jumped. He looked at the fetal feet carefully and found a small circle of white of different colors on the edge of the fetal feet. This white was somewhat different from the yellowish white above, wasn't it?

It's not yellowish, but bluish, very much like the surface color of goose eggs.

As soon as Hanfeng saw this white with bluish color, he immediately thought of a porcelain color described in a book he had read: egg white porcelain!

Yes, that's right, this is egg-white porcelain, and the bottom of the bowl has the word "Privy", and it is egg-white porcelain. Could it be the Yuan Dynasty Privy Office egg-white porcelain that is said to be very rare?

Thinking of this, Hanfeng didn't want to delay any longer. He held the bowl in the palm of his hand, and a clear image immediately appeared. The bowl in the image was very strange. The whole inside was made of very pure egg white porcelain, but the surface was covered with porcelain.

A thin layer of white-yellow stuff is like a cover covering the bowl.

Hanfeng suddenly realized it, and thought to himself, who is so cunning? He actually used an unknown substance to coat the bowl to prevent others from seeing the true color of the bowl. This person is very clever. He used this method to cleverly change the original egg white color.

He hid it and deceived several experts!

Egg white porcelain, also known as "privy porcelain", is a type of porcelain with a devitrified glaze and a slightly bluish color like an oval, so it is called "oval white". The shapes of egg white porcelain include bowls, plates, bottles, and stoves.

In addition to pots and pillows, there are also flat pots, gourd-shaped pots, polygonal pots, penholder mountains, animal-shaped inkstones, etc. The shape is thick and full, in line with the strong and stocky character of the Mongolian ruling class.

In the collection of Yuan Dynasty egg white porcelain, it is easy to find Yuan Dynasty egg white porcelain of different quality levels. Their quality and the degree of fineness of production are very different, and they can be roughly divided into three levels: 1. For palace use

Egg white porcelain, secondly, egg white porcelain used by specific government yamen or used by nobles and upper class society, third, ordinary egg white porcelain fired by private kilns.

The big bowl that Hanfeng is holding is the egg white porcelain used in the palace. Naturally, it is not comparable to ordinary egg white porcelain!

Hanfeng was really surprised and happy when he looked at the two lines of explanatory text displayed below the bowl in the image. Those words were like this:

Buddha's light shines everywhere

Material: White porcelain from the Privy Palace of the Yuan Dynasty

Although Hanfeng didn't quite understand the words "Buddha's Light Shining", the words "Yuan Dynasty Privy Palace Egg White Porcelain" below already showed that the value of this bowl was already more precious than Yuan blue and white. He learned from the book "Yuan Dynasty Porcelain"

It is learned in the book that this kind of "Oval White Porcelain from the Privy Palace of the Yuan Dynasty" is extremely rare in the world. Not to mention the ones used by the imperial court, even those from private kilns are very rare. Even the National Palace Museum only preserves one with printed twigs.

The "Privy" model egg-white porcelain plate is just a plate. Nowadays, this bowl is so big and in good condition. It was used by the royal family, so it is naturally worth a lot of money!

After Han Feng saw it clearly, he calmly put the bowl down and asked, "Miss Yue, how much are you prepared to sell this bowl for?"
