Chu Chen looked at the chicken head pot carefully, and then said, "this chicken head pot has a slightly thicker fetal body, a darker color and a dark gray appearance. The glaze layer is thick and uniform, showing a bluish gray. The combination of the body and glaze is not good, and the glaze is peeled. In addition, there is no neck under the head of the chicken, and there is no hole in the mouth of the chicken. The rear end of the tail opposite to the head of the chicken is only decorated with a convex ornament. From various characteristics, it should be a pot with the head of the chicken in the Western Jin Dynasty. "
After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, everyone nodded. Most people have seen this chicken head pot. It's really a genuine one, but it's not difficult to identify it. Therefore, several of you here signaled Chu Chen to identify it.
Chuchen smiles a little, and then identifies the penholder, inkstone, Buddha statue and other objects, some of which are true or false, but they are all identified by him one by one. So far, there is no slighting smell in the eyes of everyone looking at chuchen.
You know, many people specialize in one direction when playing antiques. It's very good for young people like Chu Chen to specialize in one direction. However, judging from these things, we didn't expect that Chu Chen seems to be a versatile person, and he seems to be quite proficient in all aspects.
It's not easy for them, let alone such a young man. How can we not be surprised?
Let alone everyone's surprise, Zhu Dafu had a feeling of being a stranger for three days and looking at each other with new eyes. However, Chu Chen's change was just what he wanted. Chu Chen was his favorite younger generation. He was very glad to see Chu Chen growing up so fast.
After more than ten minutes, almost all the things on the table were identified by Chu Chen, and the results of the identification were exactly the same, which surprised everyone. At the same time, they all exclaimed, "future generations are formidable!" At this time, they looked at Chu Chen again with a trace of admiration in their eyes.
Looking at Chu Chen's words, Liu felt beautiful. When his friends praised him for his "successors", he was even more happy.
Zhu Dafu saw the disappointment in the middle-aged man's eyes and said with a smile: "manager Chai, I don't know what you brought here today. Can you open our eyes?"
Manager Chai was stunned. Then he pushed a brocade box to the middle of the table with a smile on his face. After opening the lid, he said, "it's not a good thing either. It's just a black glazed wooden leaf bowl from Jizhou kiln."
"What! Jizhou kiln
"Wooden leaf bowl?"
After hearing what manager Chai said, everyone craned their necks and looked into the box.
Jizhou kiln is a world-famous comprehensive porcelain kiln in Jiangnan area. It has strong local style and national artistic characteristics. It began in the late Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Five Dynasties and the Northern Song Dynasty, flourished in the Southern Song Dynasty, and declined in the late Yuan Dynasty. It has a history of more than 1200 years.
Jizhou kiln occupies a very important position in the history of Chinese ceramics. It has made great achievements in promoting the production of ancient Chinese ceramics and accumulating production skills. It is one of the production centers of black glazed porcelain in ancient China. There are many kinds of porcelain, and more than 120 kinds of shapes have been found. According to the body glaze, it can be divided into celadon, opal, green, black, painted, sculpture and glassware.
In addition, Jizhou kiln has also created "Muye Tianmu", "paper cut and decal Tianmu" and other unique and valuable products.
At this time, the box in the center of the table contained a Jizhou kiln black glaze "Muye Tianmu" bowl. The bowl turns over like a straw hat, so it is also called a hat bowl. The inside and outside of the bowl are covered with black glaze. The glaze is bright and deep, subtle and dignified, which has an attractive inner beauty.
The bowl is decorated with a reddish brown wood leaf pattern. The fluffy leaves have clear veins and are natural and vivid. Although it is a leaf, it is very popular.
According to historical records, tea drinking was very popular in the Song Dynasty, up to the court, down to the folk, so many kilns competed to invent drinking utensils to match it, and this kind of wooden leaf Tianmu bowl was invented for this reason.
It is said that while thinking about the pottery making process, the clever craftsman of Jizhou kiln suddenly became interested in the leaves that were everywhere at the foot of the road. He thought that it would be more natural if he picked them up and pasted them in a bowl.
Therefore, they began to experiment. At first, they may paste the leaves directly on the green body, glaze them, and then peel them off and burn them in the kiln. This method was not successful.
Later, they used the method of corrosion to treat the leaves, making them vein network leaves, and then paste it on the bowl to burn. As a result, when people hold up the black glazed bowl to drink tea, they will see a vivid leaf sinking at the bottom of the bowl, reflecting the "green white" and "yellow white" tea color.
As soon as the Muye Tianmu bowl appeared, it set off the atmosphere of the scene. Even some respected elders couldn't help coming over to see it and let shopkeeper Chai's face show his satisfaction.
Although Chu Chen has good eyesight and is Liu's apprentice, his age is still there, so he can only let some older people watch first. It took nearly 20 minutes before his turn.
The appearance of this wooden leaf Tianmu bowl is very good, and there is no wear mark, which makes Chu Chen always feel that it is too perfect. He doesn't feel very good about this bowl, but it can't be used as evidence of forgery, because some unearthed utensils with excellent glaze also have such appearance, and the pan light of this bowl is also soft, which is a typical feature of unearthed utensils.Because the porcelain clay of Jizhou kiln comes from jigangling on the other side of Ganjiang River and around the kiln, or they are mixed. Moreover, its production site is on the sand dune beside Ganjiang River, so it is impossible to avoid sand particles entering into the porcelain soil. Therefore, the sand content in the tire is large, which makes the tire loose and has strong water absorption. The rough tire looks like pottery, but there is a kind of metal sound when it is knocked.
Chu Chen tapped on the edge of the bowl with his fingers, and his voice was exactly as recorded. It is precisely because of the high sediment content in the tire that the phenomenon of knife blocking and jumping often occurs when repairing the tire, and the knife jumping marks can be clearly seen in the bottom of the device and the contents of the ring foot. And the bottom of the bowl, there are indeed jump knife marks.
Next, he touched the surface of the bowl with his hand, and he could clearly feel the vertical undulation. Then he raised the bowl slightly and looked at it from the side, which showed that the glaze layer was vertical and uneven. With a magnifying glass, you can also see that there are many glazes missing pores on the glaze surface that cannot be seen by naked eyes, which is rough and dry, like "rain flower stone".
All this means that this bowl should be a genuine one. However, Chu Chen always felt that this bowl didn't feel good, so he simply used Lingbao eye, which made him shake his head secretly.
Seeing that Chu Chen put the bowl back in the box again, manager Chai's face moved, he said with a smile: "nephew Chu Xian, you should watch it. What do you think of my bowl?"
Judging from the performance just now, shopkeeper Chai is very small hearted. Chu Chen thinks that he will hate him no matter whether he accepts the final result or not. Therefore, he seems hesitant for a moment.
"Nephew Chu, don't worry and speak out. Even if you are wrong, it doesn't matter." Shopkeeper Chai said with a smile that he was very confident in his collection. He didn't believe it would be a fake. He wanted Chu Chen to say that his things were wrong, and then he could humiliate Chu Chen.
The man himself wanted to die, so there was no way, so Chu Chen shook his head and said: "I can't see this thing!"
When the manager just jumped over, he said, "I'm not allowed to wait for other people? How can it be wrong? Look at this bowl. What's wrong with it? "
"Xiaochai, don't worry!" An old man in his sixties, Wang Xiangong, is a senior antique collector with a reputation in Beijing.
"Mr. Wang, I spent 200000 yuan on this wooden leaf bowl. How can I not be in a hurry?" Manager Chai said loudly.
It's said that this bowl cost 200000 yuan, but I don't think it's expensive, because in terms of its appearance, the market price of this bowl should be around 300000 yuan. Boss Chai picked up a small leak.
"Xiaochai, calm down first. You can't solve the problem with a loud voice, can you?" An old man surnamed Qu frowned and said.
"I'm very calm! I just want to ask, "what's wrong with this wooden leaf bowl?" With that, manager Chai picked up the wooden leaf bowl and looked at it repeatedly. Then he glared at Chu Chen and said, "you can tell me about such a good thing
"Are you asking for advice?" Old Qian also came over and said, "show me something!"
When Qian Lao comes out, shopkeeper Chai can only put the bowl back in the box, waiting for the result of Qian Lao's appreciation.
Mr. Qian picked up the bowl and looked at it carefully for several times. Then he frowned and put it back into the box. He said to Mr. Liu, "come and have a look. It's really weird."
Old Qian couldn't be sure whether the bowl was real or not. Shopkeeper Chai's heart was tight and his forehead was in a cold sweat. Other people are very surprised to know that Qian Lao is a leading figure in the antique industry in Beijing. He can't even confirm his judgment. How can they not be surprised and curious?
Liu's reaction was similar to Qian's. after observing for a few minutes, he frowned and thought about it, then flicked the edge of the bullet. Finally, he had a careful discussion with Qian, and then they both frowned into Sichuan.
After that, there were several elders who looked at it carefully, and their attitudes were also different.
At the same time, Zhu Dafu frowned and asked softly, "Xiaochen, what's wrong with this bowl? Why didn't I find anything wrong? "
Chuchen smile, sold a pass way: "this wood leaf bowl is really good imitation, but later I do an experiment, you always know what the problem is."
