Chapter 1,167 Originates from Totem but is far higher than Totem
Looking at the pictures of fine porcelain inside the Sui Marquis Pearl, Chen Wenzhe almost drooled.
I am not envious of the price of the porcelain, but I am envious of the owners of these precious porcelains.
At this time, Chen Wenzhe hated himself for being born late, that is, he hated being born late!
There was no way, he didn't have much money when these porcelains were auctioned, so naturally he couldn't go and grab them.
Especially these things that look like they come from the royal family,
As soon as it enters the market, people will definitely be rushing to collect it.
If not for bankruptcy, who would sell such an heirloom?
I have no choice but to collect the real thing, so I can only make a few of them myself and use them for masturbation!
Collection has missed the times,
But antique,
Chen Wenzhe thinks he still has a few brushes!
As long as he is serious, wouldn't it be easy to make some dragon-patterned bottles with the help of the internal inheritance of the Sui Marquis Pearl?
Chen Wenzhe carefully looked at the internal inheritance of the Sui Marquis Pearl. When making a dragon-patterned vase, the most important thing was the dragon pattern.
The dragon patterns of the Qing Dynasty still have their own unique characteristics.
The dragon pattern in the Qing Dynasty was majestic and majestic. The dragon's head and back were plump and the body was strong. It looked like a huge beast, and its power shook the heaven and the earth.
The specific characteristics are also obvious. The dragon's head has changed greatly, and the pig's mouth has shrunk, showing that the lower jaw is longer than the upper jaw.
As long as Qing Dynasty porcelain has this dragon pattern feature, the price is generally not low.
The price represents the quality. At least in the market now, the more expensive the Qing Dynasty dragon-patterned bottle is, the higher the craftsmanship and quality will be.
Looking at the Yongzheng blue and white long-necked vase with dragon pattern, it is 38.6cm high and quite large.
The value is very high, and it was sold for 75.8 million yuan in one to five years.
There are many more dragon-pattern bottles like this worth tens of millions.
For example, a Qianlong blue and white long-necked vase with lotus and dragon patterns, measuring 46cm, was estimated to be worth 35 million to 45 million yuan in 17 years, but the transaction price was 49,037,500 yuan.
There is also a Qianlong blue and white alum red color seawater dragon pattern Ruyi ear flat pot, the size is 25.5cm, which is not large, so it was sold for 29,880,000 yuan.
Kangxi blue and white dragon-patterned vase, not too big, 24.1cm high, estimated at 5,500,000-6,500.
000, the last transaction price was rmb22,520,
000 yuan.
This was sold in 2006. How much would it sell for today?
In the past sixteen years, it cannot be said that the price has doubled and increased to 30 million. There should be no problem at all.
These dragon-patterned bottles are easily worth tens of millions, and all of them are more than 20 to 30 million. The most expensive ones can be purchased for almost 80 million.
Other Wanqing dragon-pattern wares that are small in size and have poor craftsmanship can be found everywhere, ranging from seven to eight million to two to three million.
It is certainly impossible to say that such an expensive price is simply a result of speculation.
Even if you want to speculate, you still need some basic skills. Therefore, the craftsmanship of this batch of dragon-patterned bottles from the Qing Dynasty is really good.
Chen Wenzhe, on the other hand, has done a lot of research on the cloud and dragon patterns of the Qing Dynasty.
However, he originally paid more attention to the cloud and dragon patterns of the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty.
This time it was different, because the dragon-patterned bottles in the late Qing Dynasty were all valuable, so he naturally couldn't let them go.
After careful calculation, there are a large number of such dragon-patterned artifacts, and they are undoubtedly one of the top categories among antiques.
Now that Chen Wenzhe felt that he had done a good job in researching glaze colors, he naturally had to find another way.
Therefore, he thought of making dragon-patterned bottles or dragon-patterned vessels.
Can he use different techniques to make a simple dragon-patterned vase?
He had made a mobile phone case for Izuku Azure Dragon before, can he now get it on the bottle?
It is also possible to have a red dragon under the glaze on a white ground.
Is it possible to have a blue-glazed white dragon? It is definitely possible.
Since we have done the late Qing Dynasty, what about the early Qing Dynasty? What about the Ming Dynasty? What about the Yuan Dynasty?
You must know that the dragons in these three historical periods are all very distinctive.
Of course, you can also make bile bottles. After all, for bottles of the same quality, bile bottles are definitely more expensive than appreciation bottles.
If it can be made into a larger plum vase or jar, the price will definitely be higher.
This definitely needs to look at the craftsmanship and glaze color, and finally the value can be determined.
In fact, when it comes to the value of dragon-patterned bottles, the dragon bottles from the Ming Dynasty are definitely the most classic and the most valuable!
Of course, since the Yuan Dynasty, there have been three major changes in the dragon pattern, which is considered the most classic.
There are so many things that can be studied here.
Now that we are making dragon-patterned wares, we cannot avoid the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.
The dragon, as a symbol of the Chinese nation, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of all Chinese people for thousands of years, forming a dragon culture with strong cohesion.
All Chinese people are called descendants of the dragon. The artistic shape of the dragon is complex and changeable and can be reflected in almost every field.
Such as poems and songs, carvings, murals, seals, calligraphy, and various decorations.
Chinese dragons mostly exist in myths and legends, and dragon culture originates from totems and is much higher than totems.
The legendary dragon has a tiger beard, a mane tail, and a body as long as a snake.
He has scales like a fish, horns like a deer, and claws like a dragon and an eagle.
It can walk, fly, and pour water!
It can be big or small, it can hide or appear!
It can turn over rivers and oceans, swallow wind and spit out fog, and stir up clouds and rain!
He is the head of all beasts and the symbol of the rulers of the feudal dynasty.
When it comes to porcelain, the dragon patterns in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties are obviously different in each dynasty.
Generally speaking, the dragon patterns on the porcelain decorations of the past dynasties are generally very domineering in the early period, while the dragon patterns in the middle and late stages are relatively weak and weak.
Dragon decorations on porcelain are a unique Chinese theme. After thousands of years of development, they have become powerful, vivid and flexible, and have a superb appearance. They have already become the keynote of dragon patterns in all generations.
However, on the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, due to different painting techniques and aesthetic concepts, potters of each generation still gave many different changes to the dragon pattern.
The dragon patterns on porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are mainly reflected in the hair, eyelashes, whiskers and claws.
Let’s talk about hair first. In the Yuan Dynasty, people had bald heads or 1-3 locks of long hair hanging around their necks. This was the most obvious and easy to recognize.
By the Ming Dynasty, it had become a clear and countable pile of long vertical hair, shaped like a torch.
In the Qing Dynasty, people had long loose hair or many short and wavy hair.
Then there are the eyelashes. In the Yuan Dynasty, the phenomenon of eyelashes was not obvious.
Dragons from Hongwu to Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty often had a bunch of long eyelashes like algae standing up above their eyelids.
From the Jiajing Dynasty onwards, the dragon's eyelashes were more realistic, and several short vertical lines were generally used to represent the eyelashes at the upper edge of the eyelids.
By the Qing Dynasty, the shapes of dragon eyelashes were diverse, and many were painted in the shape of bamboo leaves.
Let’s talk about beards. It is rare to see double beards on the upper jaw of dragons from the Yuan Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, the double beards were thick, stretched powerfully, shaped like a harpoon, straight but not curved.
In the Qing Dynasty, the long beards were as long as the eight-character figure and curved outwards, and most of the beard tips were rolled up.
Finally, there are the claws, which are easier to identify because the number of claws is different.
The dragons of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties all have different numbers of claws. If you cannot remember other characteristics, you can sometimes identify the authenticity of the dragon-patterned wares of the three generations as long as you remember these characteristics.
