Chapter 868

Chu Chen introduced his guess to several people present.

We suddenly realized at the same time, in the heart also to chuchen will know the method of fraud so detailed feel very strange. If they didn't know that Chu Chen was a well-known expert, and from the point of view of his clothes, he should not be the owner of lack of money. Otherwise, they would think that Chu Chen might be a forger of high ancient porcelain.

If Chu Chen knew what they thought, he would smile bitterly. Who told him that he had a well-informed teacher? Moreover, the teacher has been asking him to memorize these methods of imitating ancient porcelain. Fortunately, he has the ability to never forget. Otherwise, all these materials will make his head bigger.

At this time, brother Zhang thought of a problem, so he asked: "teacher Chu, is the black liquid around the crack asphalt solution?"

Chu Chen said, "yes, that can should have been made of asphalt."

Asphalt solution is a common method for antique porcelain. First, asphalt is dissolved in gasoline, and then the asphalt solution is applied to the surface of utensils. After gasoline volatilizes, the excess asphalt is removed by detergent. In this way, we can imitate the old appearance of the handed down products.

However, the "old appearance" processed with asphalt solution is usually single in color, lack of layering, and sometimes there are traces of brushing. If the stain is dissolved immediately, it is asphalt solution.

Chu Chen estimated that there would be asphalt solution around the crack of the jar, and the counterfeiter might pour the solution into the bottle for rinsing. Because there is a crack on the bottom foot, the asphalt solution seeps out and pollutes part of the bottom foot. Since it's not obvious, counterfeiters may be lazy to get rid of it.

At this time, brother Zhang and others have no doubt about the authenticity of Xiao Guo's porcelain. Considering that Chu Chen had been delayed for such a long time, the Party expressed their gratitude for Chu Chen's explanation and then prepared to leave.

However, just at this time, brother Zhang's mobile phone suddenly rang. He picked up the phone, put down the phone without saying a few words, and said to Chu Chen: "Miss Chu, Xiao Guo's master wants to invite you to his shop. Do you have time? If you don't have time, he said he would take Xiao Guo to your store to make amends some other day! "

Anyway, he has nothing to do with himself. It's OK to go there, but Chu Chen has to know who the other party is in advance. After all, not everyone in the antique street has a very good relationship with him.

So Chu Chen asked, "who is Xiao Guo's master?"

Brother Zhang replied, "Xiao Guo's master is manager Peng of Ya Xiang Zhai."

Yaxiangzhai is mainly engaged in antique shops such as spices and aromatherapy ovens. This shop has been open for a long time. Chu Chen is familiar with the shopkeeper Peng. Besides, they are all members of the Beijing Antique Association. What's more, Chu Chen has to give him face.

"OK, I'll be right there..."

Seeing Chu Chen's promise, brother Zhang said a few words to his mobile phone, and then he was ready to leave. After all, manager Peng's meaning was very clear, and he wanted Xiao Guo to apologize to Chu Chen. If they went together, they would be suspected of watching jokes.

However, before he left, brother Zhang asked with a smile, "Mr. Chu, are you also opening a shop here?"

Chuchen pointed to his shop with a smile and said, "I opened this porcelain house!"

"Ah! It turns out that you owned this shop! "

Brother Zhang, they are all a little surprised. You know, this porcelain yizhai is very popular in the antique street now. Except for some high imitation porcelains with clear price tag, others are authentic. Besides, the endless stream of high-grade jadeite jewelry also makes it a place frequented by many dignitaries.

Moreover, brother Zhang, they also heard that the boss of ciyizhai has a strong background. No matter how good the business is, no one dares to make trouble here, which once became a hot topic in the antique market.

Although brother Zhang and they all heard that the owner of ciyizhai was Chu, they did not expect that it would be Chu Chen. After all, chuchen is too young, and chuchen looks very modest. He doesn't look like a boss with a strong background at all.

Therefore, when they learned that Chu Chen was the owner of the antique shop, they were so surprised.

"Can I lie to you about this?" Chuchen said with a smile.

"Where! Where... " Everyone said it was just too unexpected.

Then brother Zhang said, "Miss Chu, we won't waste your time..."

After saying goodbye to the very polite brother Zhang and others, Chu Chen went straight to the Ya Xiang Zhai. As soon as he got to the door, he smelled a faint fragrance. From the smell, it should be the combined fragrance.

Entering the store, Chu Chen found that an old man in his fifties was scolding Xiao Guo severely, while Xiao Guo was standing on one side with his head down and without saying a word.

Seeing this, Chu Chen chuckled to himself. Although the old man's expression did mean that he hated iron but not steel, he could still see that the scene in front of him was deliberately made by the old man. As for the purpose, it was self-evident.

As soon as the old man saw Chu Chen coming in, he quickly yelled at Xiao Guo and said, "don't you apologize to manager Chu yet?""Shopkeeper Chu, I'm sorry. I was not good just now. I shouldn't be so rude or unreasonable..."

Small Guo low eyebrow Shun eyes, sincere tone to Chu Chen apologized, but Chu Chen how to see, how to feel small Guo seems to be a wrong child, is doing a review to the teacher in general, this feeling makes him feel very funny.

Chuchen waved his hand with a smile: "it doesn't matter. I've seen it at the beginning, and I can understand your mood."

Seeing Chu Chen's attitude, shopkeeper Peng was relieved. As a member of Beijing Antique Association, he knew how deep Chu Chen's background was. If his apprentice really made Chu Chen angry, he might not have good fruit in the future.

"My apprentice is very smart, but his mental endurance is too poor. I'll have to exercise more in the future." Seeing that Xiao Guo Sha was standing, he didn't say anything. Shopkeeper Peng sighed in his heart, and then cried out, "thank you, shopkeeper Chu!"

"Thank you, shopkeeper Chu!"

"Go and get the brocade box on the table in the inner room."

Shopkeeper Peng waved to Xiao Guo, then asked Chu Chen to sit down, poured him a cup of tea, and said with a bitter smile, "my apprentice is not very clever sometimes, and I don't know when he will be able to graduate!"

Chuchen said with a smile: "manager Peng, you don't have to worry too much. Just like when you first entered this profession, you were more introverted than your apprentice. After several years of training, you are qualified at least!"

Shopkeeper Peng shook his head: "how can he compare with shopkeeper Chu? As long as he has half of you, I can burn high incense..."

After chatting with each other for a few minutes, Xiao Guo came out of the inner room with a brocade box and put it on the table.

Shopkeeper Peng opened the lid of the box and then pushed the box to Chu Chen: "shopkeeper Chu, do you like it or not?"

Chu Chen saw that there was a peacock blue glaze plate in it. The glaze was smooth and thin, and the glaze color was bright and bright. It was very pleasant to watch. However, it was worth a lot when he saw it, and it seemed that he wanted to transfer it to him according to shopkeeper Peng.

So Chu Chen raised his head, frowned and asked, "manager Peng, what do you mean?"

Shopkeeper Peng said with a smile: "shopkeeper Chu, please look first, don't worry! I'm not giving it to you, and to be honest, I don't want to give it to you! "

"OK, I'll see first!" Chu Chen nodded and took out the plate.

Malachite blue glaze, also known as "French Blue", is a low-temperature color glaze with bright blue color after firing with copper element as colorant. General blue glaze is fired at high temperature, glaze is not easy to fall off. Peacock blue glaze is low temperature glaze. The green body is hung with glaze, or the glaze is hung twice on the white glaze ware. Because some of the utensils were greenish, some people named them "peacock green" or "fatui".

Malachite blue glaze belongs to the traditional glaze in Western Asia. It has a long history and was introduced into China early. Three Malachite blue glazed pottery bottles were unearthed from the tomb of Liu Hua, Queen of Fujian in the period of Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. In Ming and Qing Dynasties, peacock blue glazes were made in official kilns. The colors and glazes of different dynasties were different.

The peacock blue glaze plate in Chu Chen's hand is a treasure. It has an open mouth, an isolated abdomen, and a circle of feet. It is decorated with green glaze inside. The center of the plate is engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns, which are powerful and vivid. The inner edge is engraved with a week of wavy patterns. The lines are smooth, beautiful and natural.

There are two dark carved string patterns on the outer edge and near the foot respectively. The theme patterns are painted with nine cloud dragon patterns in different shapes. They are tossed on the river cliff and sea water, and coated with peacock blue glaze. The bottom is exposed, and the outer edge is engraved with six character regular script of "Xuande year system of Ming Dynasty".

The blue and white products with Malachite blue glaze had been made in Jin and Yuan Dynasties, but the color of cobalt material was obviously black. This is not only related to the immature firing technology and the direct application of Malachite blue glaze to the matrix, but also related to the naked firing of cobalt material during the production of plain tire, which led to the oxidation and blackening of blue and white.

The malachite blue glaze plate in chuchen's hand has a correct cobalt color, and there is no trace of naked burning black. Careful observation of the edge of the plate, we can also find that the secondary Malachite blue low-temperature glaze and the primary high-temperature glaze interface is bare.

Chu Chen speculated that this might be the secondary process adopted by the imperial factory at that time, first firing the high-temperature plain tire with glaze hanging inside and no glaze on the outside, then painting the outside with cobalt material and firing with peacock blue glaze, thus ensuring the ideal color development of underglaze blue and white.

However, in any case, the performance of the peacock blue glaze should be the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty Xuande official kiln. In addition, from the characteristics of the plate, Chu Chen can confirm that it is a genuine one.

Peacock blue glaze is a kind of low-temperature glaze, which is thin and difficult to be fired. Therefore, peacock blue glaze is rare and rare in the world. Moreover, because the glaze is thin, it is easy to peel off over a long time, so it is difficult to preserve.

However, the peacock blue glaze plate in Xuande period of Ming Dynasty is still in good condition after hundreds of years. It is very rare.
