All the things in this stall are stationery. Among the stalls which are either porcelain or bronze just now, they seem to have unique features.
Chu Chen took the thing that attracted his attention just now. This is a bronze enamel, which is the horseshoe Zun of cloisonne.
Horseshoe Zun is a kind of Zun. Wide mouth, round lips convergence, shoulder wide abdomen, flat bottom, shape like a horseshoe, named horseshoe Zun.
This is a popular instrument in the three dynasties of Qing Dynasty. Its shape has two kinds, the high one is a bottle, mainly used to hold liquid, the low one is a bowl, which refers to the water bowl in the stationery.
Shuiyu is Shuicheng, also known as Shuicheng, also known as the fifth treasure of the study. It is placed on the desk of the water reservoir, used to store inkstone water, mostly flat round, mouth called "Shuizhu", no mouth called "Shuicheng".
Then we talk about the horse hoof Zun. The high one has a long neck and small mouth, flat bottom and slightly concave, shoulder width and straight abdomen. Blue and white, underglaze red, pastel and other varieties are more common. The short one, also known as "short horseshoe", has a huge mouth and no neck, and its belly is the same as that of the high one.
The cloisonne horseshoe in front of Chu Chen's eyes is a typical short horseshoe. At first glance, it has a fine copper tire and brilliant color. The friezing enamel decoration on the mouth edge and the outer wall is the pattern of longevity and entwined lotus. It means auspicious and the picture looks bright and pleasant. At the end of the Department, "Zhonghe Tang system" Hall funds.
The hall name is engraved on the custom-made porcelain, with its own hall name, Zhai name or year number written on it. Its contents include pavilions and pavilions, halls and rooms, houses and so on, which are enjoyed by the emperor, his relatives and the craftsmen. In addition, it also includes some dignitaries, scholars, etc.
Tang money appeared in large numbers during the Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, and continued to be popular from then on. From Daoguang to the end of Qing Dynasty, the number of porcelains inscribed with the name of Tang was greatly reduced, which was related to many factors such as social instability at that time. At that time, the porcelains inscribed with Tang's famous money were all fine products of official kilns or folk kilns.
The "Zhonghe Tang" in Yuanmingyuan used to be the place where Emperor Kangxi lived. Therefore, the porcelains bearing the "Zhonghe Tang" were probably Royal articles.
"Little brother, you have a good eye. This is the water bowl used by Emperor Kangxi."
The stall owner saw Chu Chen pick up the cloisonne horseshoe Zun and immediately explained with a smile: "at that time, Emperor Kangxi loved this water bowl very much. Later, after his death, this water bowl has been put in Yuanmingyuan. When the eight countries allied forces were in trouble, a little eunuch took it away, and later passed it on to his adopted son."
"In fact, I've been staring at this thing for a long time, but the adopted son of the little eunuch never let go. A few days ago, he died, and I finally got it from his descendants. That's why it's not so good to be here early. Little brother, this rare treasure is just waiting for you! "
Chuchen smiles. This kind of words can only be ignored, not to mention Kangxi. If this thing can be related to Emperor Ming of Tang Dynasty, he can push the invention of cloisonne to Tang Dynasty.
When the stall owner saw that Chu Chen was looking at things for himself and praised the horse hoof Zun, he said nothing. After all, everything was too much. If the guests were tired of listening, they would walk away, it would not be worth the loss.
When Chu Chen finished reading, the stall owner quickly asked, "little brother, do you like this thing? I'll tell you, this kind of treasure can really pass through this village, there is no shop! If you like, we can discuss the price. "
Chu Chen put things back to their original position and said with a smile: "boss, I remember Cloisonne in Kangxi period. It has sand holes."
The stall owner laughed and said, "it's not from the imperial court. Since it's from the imperial court, it's not surprising that the technology is more advanced."
Even he didn't believe what he said, but even if such a thing is a worthless fabrication, he must say that it is rare in the sky and unparalleled on the ground. Otherwise, even if he wants to belittle his own things, he can't do business.
After putting down the things, Chu Chen looked at the things on the stall. Suddenly, attracted by Bao Jue, a charmingly naive jade ox Paperweight came into his sight.
Paperweight, or Paperweight, refers to the things used to press paper when writing and painting. The most common ones are rectangular strips. For some reasons, it is also called a ruler or a ruler.
Of course, the original paper town was not fixed in shape. Its origin was because ancient literati often put small bronzes and jades on their desks to play and appreciate. Because they all had a certain weight, people would easily use them to press paper or books while enjoying them. Over time, they developed into the current paper town.
Chuchen quietly took the jade ox paper town into his hands. The material of the jade ox is blue and white jade. At first glance, it's not very eye-catching. Qingbai jade is a kind of nephrite whose color is between white, light cyan and light green. The value of this kind of jade is between green jade and white jade. Among the court jade wares of Qing Dynasty, the vessels made of Qingbai jade are the most.
Of course, this jade ox is not from the Qing Dynasty.
This jade ox is a lying ox. when you look in front of it, one of its front feet is tilted up, and its mane is long and thin. It is spread on both sides of its neck, and its vigorous look is naturally revealed.In the early days, the paper towns were mostly made of copper or jade, and the images of cattle, horses, rabbits and deer were the main ones. The so-called Golden rhinoceros in the Song Dynasty poet Zhang Zhe's poem "Lu Bian Xiu sent the moon stone inkstone screen" is a kind of copper paper town.
As soon as Chu Chen saw this jade ox Paperweight, he fell in love with it. The shape of the jade ox Paperweight is simple and simple, and the method is ancient and clumsy. It can be used as a paperweight to display the desk, which has a good meaning. It can also be used as a display of Duobao Pavilion. It's interesting and interesting. It's just right to give it to his father.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen asked, "boss, how much is this jade ox?"
"Hey! Little brother, let me tell you... "
Before the stall owner finished speaking, Chu Chen interrupted: "boss, don't come to empty, I also bought pressure paper, you can tell me the price."
The stall owner laughed and didn't care about Chu Chen's interruption. He said, "it's not expensive. How about 500 yuan? After all, you can see that the sculptor is very good."
"Five hundred dollars?" Chu Chen shook his head: "it's too expensive. Look at this material, it's not very good green and white jade. I think it's 80?"
"Little brother, you've cut the price too hard. I'm a small business!" The stall owner said with a wry smile, "I can't take 80. If you want it sincerely, just 38. How about it?"
"I really want it. One hundred and two, I want it!"
"I said, little brother, I am greedy of morning and night. You have to let me earn some hard money. Three hundred dollars. You can take it if you want!"
“……”
"Two hundred and three!"
"Deal!"
Chu Chen points out money from the bag and gives it to the stall owner. After the money and goods are cleared, the business is concluded.
The stall owner was also very happy and said with a smile: "little brother, I still have authentic first-class wolf hair. Are you interested?"
Chu Chen took a look at the so-called "superior wolf's hair" of the stall owner. The wolf's hair is indeed wolf's hair, but it's all made of miscellaneous hair. How can this kind of wolf's hair write good words?
Just when Chu Chen was ready to refuse, Liu Sizhe came over and said, "brother Chen, help me to see something. I'm not sure."
"OK, let's go!"
"Two little brothers, can you wait a moment?"
Just as they were about to turn and leave, an old man next to them suddenly stopped them.
Chu Chen looked back and saw that the old man was kind-hearted, wearing a Chinese Tang suit and a string of beads bracelet on his left hand. He looked elegant and had a very good impression at first sight.
"Are you calling us, old man?"
The old man nodded, and then politely said: "excuse me, little brother, can you give me something to watch?"
"Yes."
Chu Chen didn't think much about it, so he put it on the ground. After all, the other party is just an old man, and he is not afraid of robbing things. Moreover, the bead on his hand should have more than nine eyes, and the person who can wear it will not care about the paper town of tens of thousands of yuan.
As soon as the old man saw Chu Chen's action, he knew that Chu Chen should be a member of the trade. It seemed that even if he wanted to buy it, the price would not be much cheaper.
He shook his head regretfully. The old man picked up the jade ox and looked at it carefully for a moment. After returning the jade ox to Chu Chen, he asked, "little brother, I don't know if you mean to do something?"
Chuchen shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm really sorry, old man. I'm still useful and won't transfer it."
The old man quickly said: "little brother, you might as well consider, I really like this thing, the price is also easy to say, certainly according to the market price."
Hearing the old man say so, Chu Chen knew that he should really like this thing, but he was going to give it to his father, so he could only apologize: "old man, I'm really sorry. I really use this thing."
"Oh, what a pity!" The old man shook his head and sighed.
At this time, the stall owner is not calm. What do these two people mean? Did they miss something good? So he hurriedly came forward and asked: "this Venture to ask, the material of this jade ox is also very common. Is there anything else in it
The old man shook his head slightly and said, "who told you that the jade of yuniu is poor? You haven't looked at it carefully, have you
The stall owner said with a bitter smile: "this I really haven't seen it carefully, but even if it's a top-quality green and white jade, you can see that the carving is so rough, it shouldn't be the work of a famous artist, right
"You..." The old man smell speech immediately feel some talk about the smell of cattle Qin, pause said: "or let this little brother tell you."
