Chapter 415

After looking at the miscellaneous items, the rest are porcelain, but there are only five porcelain.

Moreover, four of these five pieces of porcelain were exported in the late Qing Dynasty. However, Chu Chen could not buy this kind of porcelain, which seemed to be very colorful on the surface. Not to mention that he did not like the paintings full of western style, the large number of exported porcelain in that year alone meant that this kind of export porcelain would not have great collection value.

In recent months, Chu Chen also saw someone in Uncle Wu's shop holding such export porcelain for identification. When they heard that the thing was real, but the value was so low, many people would show an incredible look, and these people were all new hands who thought the real thing was worth money.

The rest of the porcelain is a sunflower brush wash that looks like an imitation of the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty.

It's made of eight petal sunflower style, and is decorated with imitation official glaze, that is, pink and blue glaze. The glass texture is strong. The surface of the ware has large and dense lines. The mouth of the ware is slightly purplish, and the bottom is as brown as iron. The price is 8000 pounds.

Chu Chen had a rough look, and his mouth was slightly tilted. He did not expect that the imitation level of this imitation was very high. The glass texture of the official kiln, the large grain on the turtle's back, and the "Purple mouth iron foot" all imitated perfectly.

However, when he took the brush wash and observed it carefully, he was more confused and shocked. Finally, he couldn't believe his own judgment. He used the ability to brush wash with expectation and fear, and the result made him dumbfounded.

Chu Chen never thought that this sunflower style brush wash, which he thought was an imitation, would be an authentic one from the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty!

There are five famous kilns in Song Dynasty: Ru, Guan, Ge, Jun and Ding, but the most precious one is probably Guan kiln. The mystery of the kiln site is the biggest mystery of the official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty. The Bianjing site of the Song Dynasty has been sunk underground, and so far no official kiln site of the Northern Song Dynasty has been excavated.

According to historical records, the official porcelain of the Northern Song Dynasty was created by Huizong, the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, who brought together a large number of porcelain masters. It is the first imperial porcelain in China's ceramic history that was monopolized by the emperor and was not used as a commodity.

The official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty use agate as glaze. The glaze is thick, like jade, not jade but better than jade. The cracks are pretty, elegant, plain and distant. It is full of elegant Royal charm.

The firing time of the official kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty was only more than ten years. Moreover, most of the kilns in the north were steamed bread kilns, which were much smaller in space than the Longyao and lengyao in the south. This also determined that the official kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty could not have a large output.

In addition, Huizong ordered that all the jade and stone be burned and kilns destroyed when the Jin soldiers broke the city. So far, no complete ware of the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln has been found in the world.

When he thought of this, Chu Chen could not help sighing for the havoc of Guan kiln.

The official kilns of the Song Dynasty were mainly plain faced, with neither gorgeous carving nor colorful painting. At most, they were decorated with concave convex straight edges and string patterns, giving people a quiet and implicit aesthetic feeling.

The sunflower style brush wash in front of us is the same. The glaze is thick and the porcelain is not decorated. The beauty of the glaze color and the beauty of the crack are the main reasons to pursue the supreme realm of art.

Because the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty were all provided for the emperor alone, the materials used were extremely luxurious, and high-quality jadeite, agate and other jade powder were added to the glaze at any cost.

In addition, the combination of pad and support makes the utensils more evenly stressed and the fetal bone more firm, thus creating conditions for the enamel to be more honest and smooth.

Just like the brush wash in Chu Chen's hand, it looks as fat as a pile of fat, caresses it as satin and jade, and grasps it as if it is oil. He can't help but marvel at it.

In general, the sunflower style brush wash in Chu Chen's hands is simple and dignified, the glaze is as greasy as jade, and the cracked pieces are smart and elegant, the shape is like turtle back, the color is like eel blood, the glaze is Yingying, the ice flake is very beautiful, and the mouth is slightly purple, the bottom foot is brown and red as iron.

All these characteristics together can prove that this sunflower brush wash is the work of the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln. Moreover, it has been handed down from the Northern Song Dynasty to the present, but there is only a gap smaller than the grain of rice on the edge of the mouth, and other places are intact. It's really rare.

Up to now, there are only a few pieces of porcelain pieces that are really identified as the official kiln, and not even a whole one has been found. Of course, some people may have kept the official kiln's wares secret, but in any case, the brush wash of the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln in front of us is extremely precious and valuable!

At this time, Chu Chen did not know how to describe the shock and excitement in his heart. It was an official kiln, you know! Antique collectors all over the world dream of treasures, if you can get a piece of official porcelain, antique collectors will treasure it carefully preserved.

Or some collectors simply set the porcelain pieces into gold and silver ornaments to enjoy. For example, although emerald diamonds are precious, there is endless space for mining. As a rare non renewable cultural relic, Song Guan porcelain has surpassed emerald diamonds in terms of its value.

For example, Chu Chen's official kiln brush wash, which is 123kg in diameter, would not be surprised if it went to the auction now, even if it was tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

Wu can see Chu Chen has been straight Leng Leng looking at the things in his hand, some strange asked: "ah Chen, what's the matter with you? Is there anything wrong with the things in your hand?"When Wu Ke said that, Chu Chen suddenly came to his senses. The secret way just now was too lack of vigilance. Fortunately, there was Wu Ke around, otherwise the shop owner might find out the problem. In that case, it would be hard to say if he wanted to get this brush wash. If someone else got it in the end, it would be his greatest regret in this life.

So he gave Wu Ke a look and said with a smile, "nothing, just thinking about something."

Wu Ke understood the meaning and quickly said, "ah Chen, it's getting late. Let's go. We'll invite Mina and her to dinner today."

"All right, let's go!"

In order to avoid the shop owner's suspicions when he saw the difference just now, Chu Chen put the brush wash back on the shelf. After a few steps, he pretended that he was not willing to go back and get the brush wash.

Don't say, in this way, it really dispelled the doubts of the shop owner. Originally, the shop was not big. Chu Chen was just in a daze, and the boss could see it clearly at the cashier.

At first, he thought that chuchen had found something, but now, it immediately made him think that chuchen's previous performance was just about whether to buy such things.

"Boss, can these three things be cheaper?" Asked Chu Chen in English.

As soon as Chu Chen opened his mouth, the boss and Wu Ke were surprised. They had never thought that Chu Chen's English was so fluent, and he had a real English accent.

This immediately made the shopkeeper think that Chu Chen had been living in England for many years, so he said, "at most 95% off."

Nowadays, in British second-hand shops or antique shops, things are clearly priced. The shopkeeper usually gives you a 15% discount, which is enough to save face.

If it is ten years later, the antique dealers here have learned the jargon with their domestic counterparts: "antiques can't be regenerated, so they are priceless."

As a result, like the domestic antique dealers, they often open the lion's mouth and ask for a very high price. Sometimes when you come to a price that you think is extremely low, they will pretend to be difficult for a while and finally make a deal with you half way through. And after the transaction is successful, they will say a few words of flattery to you, just like in China.

However, Chu Chen was a newcomer, and he didn't know this very well, so he habitually said:

"boss, you see I bought so much from you, you can give me more discount!"

Boss smell speech tiny a Leng, secret way, I give you face hit 95% discount, how can you still insatiable ah! When he thought of this, he just wanted to refuse, but suddenly he thought of something, so he said:

"I can give you a 10% discount at most, but there is a precondition that you have to buy one of my things, otherwise you can only get a 95% discount!"

Chu Chen shook his head and said, "boss, your request is too hard. What if it doesn't suit me?"

By implication, what if what you're selling is a fake?

The boss also didn't like it. He said with a smile, "don't worry. You can see the thing after you see it. It must be good. Besides, if it's not good, you can't want it. You don't have any loss."

Chu Chen felt that this was the truth, so he nodded and agreed.

The shopkeeper said hello, went inside the shop, opened a door, and went in.

During this period, Wu Ke also explained the rules to Chu Chen.

Hearing this, Chu Chen felt his nose a little embarrassed and said, "I'm not used to it at home."

Wu Ke looked at him and laughed. After a while, she asked strangely, "ah Chen, who did you learn English from, how did you speak English so well, and what's more, you still have a British accent?"

They have been playing these two days, and Wu Ke usually orders the dishes when they eat, so she doesn't know that Chu Chen's English is so good.

So Chu Chen wind clear cloud light said one of the reasons, listen to Wu can a Leng a Leng.

"Ah Chen, you said that after chatting with the taxi driver all the way, you have improved your English level like this?" Wu Ke asked in a strange way.

"That is, don't you know your husband I'm a language genius?" Chu Chen said triumphantly.

Wu Ke touched Chu Chen's forehead and said, "no fever, how can you talk nonsense?"

Seeing that Wu Ke didn't believe it, Chu Chen could only say helplessly, "OK! I've been studying at home for a long time

Wu Ke nodded in relief: "that's right!"

Chu Chen shrugged his shoulders and said in secret, how can he tell the truth that he doesn't believe it!
