Chapter 521 Yuan Dynasty Calligraphy and Painting PK Doucai Tianzi Jar
"Shopkeeper, something unexpected happened. Zhang Qiyun didn't know what happened. He found the colorful jar you used to test the young ladies." A middle-aged man wearing a silk shopkeeper's shirt whispered in Shen Xiyue's ear. .
Shen Xiyue picked up the teacup and took a slow sip of tea, "Just find it if you find it. It's just a tie with my brother-in-law. The unknown crane painting from the Yuan Dynasty in my uncle's hand is also valuable. I believe him." We can see some clues in it.”
The Doucai Tianzi jar hidden deep in the shelf was deliberately done by Shen Xiyue.
But it’s not because of the competition between the two collection associations today.
The jar was put in a long time ago to test the eyesight of his children.
It’s just that no matter whether it’s a son or a daughter, no one in the next generation really likes antiques.
As for eyesight, several children have it.
But Shen Xiyue knew that none of them really liked antiques.
I am able to understand some identification methods because I am forced to learn them.
Every time he thought of this, Shen Xiyue felt a little discouraged. He would have to find professional managers to take care of such a huge family business in the future!
After coming and going, this colorful sky-shaped jar with auspicious animal flying elephant pattern has been sitting on the shelf gathering dust.
There's no price tag anyway, so others can't buy it if they want to.
The jar is 70% true and 30% false.
The bottom of the jar with the Chinese character "天" engraved in blue and white is real, but the body of the jar is fake.
The fakeness of the can body is not completely fake.
Although it is not a true official kiln of the Chenghua period, it is still an official kiln of the Ming Dynasty.
Some ancient craftsmen perfectly combined the two.
From the outside, it's hard to spot.
You have to look inside the jar for holes.
The naked eye is not enough, so you need to use a high-power magnifying glass.
From this point alone, I have to say how powerful the ancient craftsmen were!
When Shen Xiyue got this jar, he thought it was a real Doucai Tianzi jar. In the end, the problem was discovered by the store's chief palm-eye master, Mr. Wang.
To put it simply, the bottom of this jar is the base of a genuine Chenghua Doucai Tianzi jar, but the body of the jar is an imitation of an official kiln.
But even so, this is a rare ancient porcelain treasure.
For many collectors, it is already a treasure.
The same was true for the crane painting that Shen Yu saw.
Shen Xiyue also made that painting intentionally, but compared to this Tianzi jar, he just saw something wrong with that painting.
That's why the price was marked.
Those who buy are not as good as those who sell.
If someone sees the problem, Shen Xiyue has many ways to prevent the other party from buying it.
The number of people in the live broadcast room has been soaring, reaching more than 30,000 viewers in just half an hour.
Most of the comments on the public screen were supportive of Shen Yu.
He is not optimistic about Zhang Qiyun in various ways.
Picking up leaks is purely based on deception: "Uncle Shen, this brother-in-law of the family, looks very serious and has an expert demeanor! But his competitor is not a big treasure appraiser. You, Zhang, frowned when he appraised it. Is it clenching of teeth, or is it constipation?”
Lao Zhang plays with collecting: "This black boy from Binhai Collection Association looks silly. If I read it correctly, the jar he is holding in his hand must be a Doucai Tianzi jar. In ancient times, this jar was better than chickens. The jar cup should be cherished from the royal collection.
"There are only a dozen or so rare collections of this kind in the world. Uncle Shen has a lot of good stuff in his store, but it is absolutely impossible to spend six or seven minutes on this kind of porcelain. , and there is no one left!”
I am a porcelain maker: "Lao Zhang is right, the dragon body in this pot has no scales, and the blue and white hair color is also very bright, which really gives people a feeling of fat and jade.
"But for experts, these are all disadvantages! Too much gloss often proves that it is a fake.
"The so-called ancient porcelain is swindled and cheated. Even a kiln burner like me knows it better than him!"
Zhang Qiyun cannot see the comments made by viewers in the live broadcast room.
But now his mood is ups and downs like a roller coaster.
"This jar doesn't look fake no matter how you look at it, but if it were real, why would it be placed in this corner?"
Facing the doucai jar in his hand, Zhang Qiyun had doubts about his eyesight for the first time.
Assuming that what was in his hand was not a Doucai Tianzi jar but a small blue and white piece or a small multicolored piece, Zhang Qiyun would definitely not doubt his own eyesight.
He would only think that Master Zhangyan from Xuande Tower had made a mistake.
When an appraiser makes a mistake, sometimes it depends not only on the appraisal skills, but also on the appraiser's mood that day.
People may face all kinds of troubles every year, every month, and every moment.
Once distracted, mistakes will occur.
The cook is having trouble at home, and the food he cooks may be raw or stale.
Even experienced drivers who have been driving for many years will get distracted and cause car accidents when they are distracted.
If a barber is in a bad mood and is distracted frequently, his skills will not be as good as usual.
Master Zhangyan is like this too.
It is common to make mistakes in antique shops.
But this colorful Tianzi jar is so famous in the collecting world. If it was appraised by three people, it would be impossible for all three of them to discover the treasure, right?
No matter how you think about it, it’s impossible!
but?
But Zhang Qiyun also has an intuition, an extremely strong intuition, that is, this Tianzi jar must be a genuine Chenghua product!
In other words, Xuande Tower must have missed a treasure!
"The white ground is blue and white, with five colors in between. It is clear and translucent, smooth and flawless.
“Whether it’s real or fake, just consider this device as your alternative!
"Huh, besides, if I can't understand something, others can't understand it either. If I say this is Chenghua Doucai, how can others refute me?"
After finally finding an antique that he was satisfied with, Zhang Qiyun was in a good mood and couldn't help but turn his head and look towards Shen Yu.
At this sight, the mood I had just recovered from was instantly gone.
At this time, Shen Yu had a banner in his hand.
It's a rolled banner.
Obviously, Shen Yu also missed it!
"Damn it, how come this kid's luck is always so good?" Zhang Qiyun couldn't help clenching his fists.
…
Shen Yu indeed picked it up and missed it.
But it is not an authentic work by the master of crane painting, Xue Ji.
It is an authentic work by Wang Yuan, one of the giants of flower and bird painting in the Yuan Dynasty.
In other words, Master Zhangyan from Xuande Tower got it right.
They identified the painting as an unknown painting from the Yuan Dynasty because they did not have a gold finger for perspective.
The so-called "half painting" actually uses a piece of white paper of the same material to cover the other half of the painting.
I don’t know what magic method was used to connect the blank space to the drawing, but no loopholes can be seen at all.
It's so amazing that it's hard to distinguish between immortals and immortals!
Even if Shen Yu didn't have a golden finger for identifying treasures, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Although it is not a Tang painting, it is an unexpected surprise to find an authentic work by a famous Yuan Dynasty artist.
About the autumn of the year before last, Shen Yu participated in a high-end auction, in which an authentic painting by Wang Yuan, "Bamboo, Stone and Plum Bird", sold for more than 9 million yuan.
That painting was not signed by Wang Yuan, but was attributed to Wang Yuan through some inferences from ancient people.
As for this painting, there is Wang Yuan's signature and seal under the white paper.
