"The artifacts in the Liao Dynasty were similar to the gold and silverware in the prosperous Tang Dynasty in all aspects, but there are still fundamental differences between the two. Overall, the style of gold and silverware in the Liao Dynasty was relatively rough, and their patterns often tended to be simplified compared to the Tang Dynasty, and the shape of the vessel was always the same.
It has the unique style of nomadic peoples, and to a considerable extent retains the tradition of the Khitan people." Luo Tian pointed to this stirrup pot: "It seems to have been professionally processed on the surface."
Cheng Anjiang said proudly: "That's right, the dirt on the surface of the pot is washed with ether, benzene and ammonia water, then rinsed with distilled water, and finally dried to make it look refreshed."
"Is Mr. Cheng's own move?" Luo Tian suddenly thought of this question. Since this dark room is so precious and people don't come in easily, who are the people who regularly take care of these antiques?
"Zhengzhen." Cheng An's real answer surprised Luo Tian again.
"What is her major?"
"Archaeology." Cheng Anjiang replied with a smile: "I have three children, each with their own strengths. The eldest son, the second daughter, the second daughter, the third daughter, the archaeology. To be honest, all three of them are my pride."
Luo Tian believed in the pride that a father showed on his face. Cheng Zhen studied archaeology. Luo Tianzhen did not expect that this girl was like a mystery, revealing her true face in front of him little by little. This feeling...
It was very strange, and a strange feeling appeared in Luo Tian’s heart.
Just when Luo Tianshen was traveling to the Nine Heavens, Cheng Anjiang took out a piece of pottery, which was like a ball, and there were gray-white patterns like leaves on the outside. It was very small, but it could be held in the palm of the hand with one hand. Luo Tian was stunned: "
This is not Mahula, this is Tao Xiangqiu!”
Cheng Anjiang nodded: "A good look, you can see it at a glance. Sorry, I'm just curious, so I want to break the old rules and see. After all, you already know these antiques in advance, and maybe you have done enough effort."
It’s not that the family doesn’t enter the family. The father, like his daughter, likes to test people. Fortunately, since Luo Tian entered the antique circle, there has been no day without being tested. It is a completely acceptable level like Cheng Anjiang.
"The pottery sound ball is an important primitive instrument and the earliest sound toy. The pottery sound ball is a spherical shape of ceramic, with an empty middle, filled with marbles or sand particles, which rust when shaking, and now
The same principle is given to the baby hand-ringing bell. The concept of the ancients is still used today. It's really amazing." Luo Tian said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Mr. Cheng had even collected all ancient toys, which surprised me. After all, ancient toys are
In the antique circle, it is an uncommon range.”
"My collection does not necessarily take value as consideration." Cheng Anjiang touched the pottery ball with care: "Only interesting things are within my collection."
Luo Tian swept a kite and kite on the shelf. Everyone is very familiar with it. Every March 3, in the major parks and squares, all kinds of kites compete for beauty, and they will compete to see who
The kite flies high and far, but this kite is different from the common ones.
The kite has been circulating in China for a long time. According to legend, Mozi made wooden birds from wood and was developed for three years. It is the earliest origin of kites in humans. Mozi sounds very strange, but he has to talk about another one.
The name is clear at a glance, he is Mozi.
In addition to being an absolute cultural master, Mozi is also an excellent machinery manufacturer. He spent 3 years carefully developing a flying wooden bird. He is also a manufacturing vehicle.
The expert can build a car with a load of 30 stones in less than a day. The car he built runs quickly, saves effort, and is durable, which was praised by people at that time, so he is an absolute
Theorist and practitioner, his knowledge does not only stay at the cultural level.
Later, Lu Ban used bamboo to improve the kite material of Mozi, and evolved into today's multi-line kite. It is said that Cao Xueqin, the author of "Dream of Red Mansions", was also a kite maker. Since the Tang Dynasty, kites have gradually become toys. In the late Tang Dynasty, kites have been used as a kite.
There is a sounding device made of silk strips or bamboo flutes on it, and the wind blows and sounds, so the name "Kite".
This kite has been corrupted to a certain extent. The main structure is restored after tomorrow, but it is quite huge. It is twice as big as an ordinary kite. There is a bamboo whistle bowstring at the bottom of the kite. Luo Tian took a look and the kite was up and down.
It was glowing green, and the number presented on it was - the fourth BC! At this time, it wasn't it - the Chu and Han dynasties!
Luo Tian immediately reacted. Seeing that Luo Tian had a different look on his face, Cheng Anjiang asked, "How is it? This kite is not a copy again, right?"
"No, although it cannot be called a complete ancient kite, it was only repaired the day after tomorrow, not a copy. After all, it is unlikely to be preserved for thousands of years with the material of the kite at that time, and repairing it will inevitably be possible." Luo Tian
Talk calmly.
"Thousand years? Do you mean this kite has a history of more than a thousand years?" Cheng Anjiang always thought that this was at most something from the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the greatest possibility was the late Qing dynasty or even the early Republic of China.
"That's right, first, judging from the materials used in the kite, these can be detected using modern precision instruments. Second, the bamboo whistle bowstrings under the kite. As far as I know, there was an amazing figure in the Han Dynasty.
I have used kites to do something."
"Could it mean Han Xin?" Cheng Anjiang had some understanding of history.
"That's right, during the Chu-Han dispute, Han Xin asked someone to make large kites and install bamboo whistles and bowstrings. He floated on the Chu camp at night, making it make strange sounds to disintegrate the morale of the Chu army and use kites for measurement."
"I didn't expect that a small kite would be of such a great use. I opened my eyes today." Cheng Anjiang sighed a lot: "It would be great if I invited you to come earlier, but it's not too late, it's time.
It's not too late, haha!"
Luo Tian always felt that Cheng Anjiang was a little strange. Today, there was always a subtle sound inside and outside the words. Maybe it was because his family had a great career and had more worries than ordinary people. He smiled modestly: "I have specialized in arts and antiques.
The capital to survive, so you must naturally study it thoroughly. Just like your business method, you must have outstanding features.”
No one doesn't like to listen to flattery, let alone Luo Tian praised it from the bottom of his heart. Cheng Anjiang enjoyed it very much and looked up to Luo Tian even more.
Luo Tian still wanted to continue, Cheng Anjiang looked at the time: "It's getting late, let's continue after lunch, we still have time." Cheng Anjiang always emphasizes time and other things. Is it the common characteristic of businessmen, the so-called "
