Wang Ding placed the Qianlong landscape and figure paintings of the Qing Dynasty on the table, and two old naughty boys, Xu Fengshui and Fang Heqing, began to appreciate them.
Snuff bottles are an imported product. Chinese snuff bottles combine calligraphy and painting, carving, inlaying, polishing and other techniques. They use blue and white, five-color, porcelain carving, nesting, skillful work, interior painting and other techniques, absorbing the advantages of various craftsmanship at home and abroad.
So it is worth collecting.
The two old men circled half a circle in front of the table. Mr. Xu said first, "This snuff bottle is made of ivory. The carving technique uses openwork to convey the character to the solid ivory."
It’s not easy to describe the posture.”
Mr. Xu first expressed his love for this beautiful work, and Fang Heqing immediately paid attention to the picture on the snuff bottle.
"This landscape painting of figures uses mountains as the background and water as the picture. The water is rippling. There is a boat in the center, and the boatmen are vigorously rowing. The carvings are lifelike and truly remarkable."
"Yes, and look at its slightly yellowish color, which is exactly what ivory can show. The material of ivory itself is very scarce, not to mention that it is a work of the Qing Dynasty. This snuff bottle has something to say about it."
"Yes. I have a piece of agate snuff bottle made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. The presentation of that work is perfect. The shape is round and thick, the picture is compact, the distant and near scenery are clearly layered, the movement is real, and it is very vital. But I think this
The ivory-carved snuff bottle has more charm, and the picture comes to my face, making me feel like I'm actually there!"
The two old men were talking about each other, but Wang Ding didn't understand a word that Mr. Fang said. "Mr. Fang, I'm sorry, may I ask, what does Su Zuo mean?"
Wang Ding asked puzzledly, and Fang Heqing explained, ""Suzhou" originally meant that the snuff bottles were made in Suzhou, but now what we usually call "Suzhou" means that the snuff bottles were made in Suzhou.
A special technique in carving technology. This technique began in the Qing Dynasty
In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, in terms of pattern, it is different from other reliefs and pretty reliefs. Its biggest feature is the skillful carving technique of borrowing colors. Looking at the overall look of the "Su Zuo" snuff bottle, its picture will leave a lot of impression on people.
There is a large space for imagination and a good spatial extension effect.”
"Yes, in addition to the Su-made ones that Mr. Fang told you, there are also skillfully made snuff bottles among agate snuff bottles. Because agate snuff bottles are rich in color, they usually have beautiful natural textures. Do you know about beautiful colors?"
"Well, I understand that Qiao color means that a piece of material has two or more different colors at the same time. Such materials are called Qiao color."
"Yes, it is this kind of pretty material. Carving craftsmen will use this natural color layering and arrange it reasonably and skillfully to carve very interesting works. They are more common in animals or birds, with bright contrasting colors.
The images are vivid and lifelike, and every finished product is expensive and is called a work of art."
Wang Ding understood Mr. Xu's explanation, and when he learned about the agate snuff bottles made by Su Zuo and Qiao Zuo, Wang Ding even sighed that snuff bottles also have so much knowledge.
What's more, Wang Ding is increasingly yearning for the mystery and magic of the antique world. If he wants to leave the antiques now, Wang Ding almost knows that it is impossible.
In particular, he has not yet learned many of the essence of antiques, and Wang Ding does not want to start an independent business. It is best to stay in Guxiangzhai. If he is really kicked out, he can continue to worship the mountain.
Whether it is Mr. Xu or Mr. Zhuang, they can definitely teach him well, but the question is whether they can accept him as their apprentice.
"Wang Ding, I want to take this snuff bottle. How much do you want to sell it for?"
Mr. Xu still took the lead and expressed his stance before Fang Heqing could speak.
Wang Ding didn't know how much this snuff bottle was worth, but he still had a reference range. "Mr. Xu, I've actually asked others to appreciate the value of this snuff bottle in the store. As a conservative estimate, the price is around six
Between 100,000 and 900,000."
"Sixty to nine hundred thousand?"
Mr. Xu disagrees with this price. "I think what you said is a little high, about half a million. Mr. Fang, what do you think?"
"I think it's a bit high, but at this price, I can accept it. Why don't you, Mr. Xu, just be a favor and let me collect this snuff bottle?"
"Can you accept it? But are you accepting 900,000 or 600,000? If it is 600,000, I can consider accepting it."
Mr. Xu seemed unwilling to hand over this treasure to others, but the two old guys' challenge at this time was to call Wang Ding Anshuang.
Sure enough, in order to target Xu Fengshui's words, Fang Heqing raised his head and said, "Of course I'm not talking about 600,000, I'm paying 700,000, so you must give this snuff bottle to me?"
Fang Heqing didn't seem to want to ask Wang Ding's opinion. At this time, he reached out to pick up the snuff bottle. He felt inexplicably annoyed. When Xu Fengshui's stubborn temper came up, he yelled, "No, I'll pay seventy-five dollars."
Wan, I want this pot!"
"I am eight hundred thousand!"
Fang Heqing stared at his round eyes and said proudly.
After shouting out 800,000 yuan, Mr. Xu really wanted to continue to give him leverage, but there was nothing he could do about it. Mr. Xu's hands were really not that lenient.
Recently, he has received a lot of goods, but the treasures in his hands have not been released, so there is a problem in the capital chain. Although Mr. Xu also likes this snuff bottle, it is not as wealthy as Fang Heqing. He sighed, Xu
Feng Shui could only shake his head and said, "Okay, the one with the highest price will get it. This snuff bottle is yours!"
What else can Wang Ding say, excited, excited, crazy!!!
Wang Ding didn't even know what he had done, and then the snuff bottle magically increased from 600,000 to 800,000. 800,000 had exceeded his expectation of 700,000. With 800,000, in Gan
The city is a house of 70 to 80 square meters.
"Wang Ding, eight hundred thousand, this snuff bottle is mine. You don't have any other ideas, do you?"
When Fang Heqing got the snuff bottle, he was afraid that Wang Ding would stop selling it.
"No, I have no idea. I brought this snuff bottle over. I just wanted to sell it. Mr. Fang was able to accept it and offered a high price of 800,000 yuan. I have no idea, only thanks."
"Ahem, thank you. Of course I bought it because I thought it was valuable. Come on, come with me to withdraw the money. I'll go to the bank and transfer my savings to you for 800,000."
"Okay, then Mr. Xu, we will leave first."
Wang Ding said goodbye to Mr. Xu respectfully. Seeing his beloved snuff bottle being snatched away by the old man named Fang, Mr. Xu also said cruelly to Fang Heqing, "Go quickly, dirty old man, don't come to my place next time."
I've stolen the treasure and I'm really annoying you!"
…
With eight hundred thousand in his account, Wang Ding felt like a bird on a branch. Mr. Fang was even more happy to get this treasure.
"Wang Ding, there were some things I couldn't ask at Mr. Xu's place just now. Now I'm asking you, and you have to answer truthfully. Because this is very important for your future personal development."
