Entering another large cabin, Chen Wenzhe immediately saw a lot of bronzes, other golds, gems, and porcelain. Of course, the most numerous ones were bronzes.
This may be the goods received from the tomb of the King of Nanyue, and the porcelain among them seems to be porcelain found in the sea.
In a cabin, Chen Wenzhe looked casually at the blue and white porcelain in his hand, which was all made in South Vietnam.
"Huh? Something's wrong. Why does it look like a kid's craftsmanship?"
The blue and white porcelain in front of me feels like every piece of it is very classic. Although it is not a top-grade antique, it is rare in the market. After all, Chen Wenzhe has collected one of each kind.
Such as blue and white pictographic water drops, blue and white lotus plates, blue and white flower boxes, etc.
In addition to Chen Wenzhe's collection, other things like neon are also collected in Wanwan museums.
These are the classic South Vietnamese blue and white porcelain. Others include blue and white flower jars with more complicated craftsmanship, blue and white lion porcelain with colored porcelain, and blue and white hollow flower and bird holding pots.
This craft must have been lost in South Vietnam.
So just by looking at it, Chen Wenzhe could tell that it was a later imitation by Little Devil.
Although these are considered antiques, they are not very old, more than a hundred years at most.
Why do you say it was imitated by little devils? Because they like the porcelain of the Tang and Song Dynasties too much.
Therefore, these porcelains inevitably have some styles of Tang and Song porcelains.
These blue and white porcelains look like blue and white porcelain at first glance, but if you look closely, you will see that they are actually made using celadon technology.
It can be said that among collectors around the world, several Neon people cherish Chinese porcelain the most, and the most important one is Ru Kiln.
Why? Because the Shintoism of the Neon people is similar to the early Taoism of China.
In history, the era when neon admired China the most was also the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Nowadays, the porcelain used in Neon people's tea ceremony, flower arrangement and incense ceremony are all Tang and Song style "celadon" instead of "blue and white".
Even in the turmoil since the late Qing Dynasty, Neon people have always had little interest in Chinese Ming and Qing porcelain.
The bulk of their collection is mainly celadon, red porcelain, calligraphy and painting, etc.
On the contrary, after the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Song Dynasty, the Chinese people gradually removed the taste of their ancestors from the depths of their memories and fell in love with the intricate patterns from the Middle East.
"This time the porcelain has some collectible value. After all, it is made by Neon porcelain people. If you bring these things to Neon, you may be able to exchange them for some of our domestic antiques. However, the maintenance is too poor and needs to be taken good care of. Otherwise,
You definitely won’t be able to get anything good in exchange for it.”
Although it is porcelain made by Xiaoguizi's ancestors, it is also an antique.
As long as they were antiques, Chen Wenzhe could not bear to see them continue to deteriorate.
You should know that the appearance of porcelain is completely different whether it is maintained or not.
Even if you want to sell it, you still have to sell it for a piece of skin!
Therefore, Chen Wenzhe couldn't help but take action and wanted to take care of it.
In his opinion, although the value of these porcelains is not very high, if you meet the Ming master (the one who takes advantage of you), you may get an unexpected harvest.
If porcelain is not properly maintained, it will be seriously damaged and is not conducive to the long-term preservation of porcelain.
Especially the exquisite products handed down from ancient times and unearthed should be carefully maintained.
The maintenance of porcelain must follow the principles of handling with care and caution.
At the same time, the maintenance of porcelain should not be excessive, so as not to cause protective damage.
When maintaining porcelain, you need to pay attention to many aspects.
For example, porcelain is fragile, so when storing it, you should pay attention to preventing shock, extrusion, and collision.
When appreciating collections, be careful not to bump or drop them, and try not to touch them with sweaty hands.
It is best to wear gloves when looking at the collection and use flannel to pad the table. These are not to prevent sweat from corroding the porcelain, but to imitate slippery hands.
Especially when viewing, do not pass it to each other. When one person is finished viewing, it should be placed on the table, and others can hold it and view it.
Therefore, you also need to be careful when appraising porcelain.
If it is a bottle, jar, statue, etc. porcelain, it is usually made of two sections from bottom to top. When moving, you cannot carry the upper neck of the object with one hand.
The correct method is to hold the neck with one hand and support the bottom with the other hand.
Some bottles, cans, and bottles are decorated with ears. Do not just lift the ears when taking them out to avoid breakage or damage.
Thin-cartoned utensils are thin, light, delicate, and need to be moved with caution when placing them.
Remember to hold the bottom with both hands and avoid using one hand.
Especially bottles, which have a small base and long body, and need to be protected from being blown over by wind.
Newly purchased high-temperature glaze or underglaze colored porcelain should be soaked in clean water for an hour, and then washed away with detergent to remove any oil stains on the surface.
Be sure to dry the water with a towel and then put it in a box. The box should be filled with foam, and the diameter after adding foam should not exceed 0.5 cm of the collection.
The collection should be placed in the box with appropriate tightness, and squeezing should be avoided to prevent damage to the collection.
If the low-temperature glaze and overglaze color are unearthed, a lot of debris will penetrate into the glaze color, and the glaze and color may even be deglazed.
When encountering this kind of porcelain, you should first add a small amount of adhesive between the glazes, and then apply a softer adhesive on the color to prevent the glaze from falling off in a large area.
If it is a high-temperature glaze or underglaze that has been buried underground for a long time, a lot of calcium and siliceous compounds, namely rust, will be produced on the surface of the porcelain.
You can clean it with clean water first, soak it in 3% hydrogen peroxide for about 3 hours, then soak it in clean water for more than 30 hours, and clean it with a clean white cloth. Generally, rust can be removed.
If it cannot be completely removed, you can use a brush dipped in acetic acid and brush it on the rusty area. After 5 hours, use a medical scalpel to cut away the rust at an angle. The blade can only be cut in one direction.
After most of the rust is removed, clean with a white cloth and toothpaste until the rust is completely removed. This method is only suitable for high-temperature glazes and underglaze colors.
When cleaning away oil stains and other accumulated dirt, you should master some techniques and methods.
General stains can be cleaned with alkaline water, soap and washing powder, and then rinsed with clean water.
When washing thin-bodied porcelain in winter, the water temperature must be controlled to prevent the porcelain from bursting due to the alternation of hot and cold water.
Some colored porcelain may have lead leakage due to the high content of lead in the color. You can first scrub it with a cotton swab dipped in white vinegar, and then rinse it with clean water.
If the porcelain has cracks or cracks, stains can easily penetrate into it. You can use a toothbrush dipped in some acidic liquid to scrub away.
However, this method cannot be used for overglaze colored utensils, because acids and alkaline substances can easily damage the glaze.
If it is gold-painted porcelain, do not use a feather duster to clean it, because the feather duster can easily damage the gold-painted porcelain.
You know, such tragedies have happened many times before.
Therefore, when collecting precious porcelain, it should be equipped with a wooden box or wooden box of corresponding size and gallbladder for preservation and collection.
When you walk into this huge heritage building, the first thing you see is the various blue and white porcelain piled everywhere on the ground.
There are piles of porcelain pieces, complete vessels, and "photographs".
Teruko is rarely seen overseas because it is a blue and white experimental sample.
It can be seen that this group of people who make porcelain are very serious in making porcelain.
