Chapter 1055

Huang Shanyi curiously turned over the seal and said in surprise, "it's still my surname. It's not so easy to find it, is it?"

He Lihang said with a smile: "of course, although yuan seal is more common, it depends on luck to find the surname you want. Moreover, the craftsmanship of Yuan seal is so exquisite, which is even rare. I also trust the relationship to find a party."

Huang Shanyi nodded with a smile. He appreciated the seal in his hand for a while and felt that he liked it very much. Just as he was about to express his gratitude to he Lihang, he suddenly remembered that he also liked Wu Changshuo's Tianhuang seal very much, but there was something wrong with it, which made his mood turn 180 degrees.

In this case, let Chu Chen take a look first. Don't have problems in the end, which will affect your mood.

Thinking of this, he said with a smile: "Lao he, do you mind if I show it to Mr. Chu?"

"It's right for my brother to settle the accounts."

He Lihang waved his hand. Although he is full of confidence in his own things, since they are good friends, they should pay more attention to this aspect. Otherwise, once there is a problem, it may affect the friendship between them. But then again, chuchen is so young. Is his eyesight all right? He had some doubts about it.

Then Chu Chen took over the seal. To be honest, he has never seen this kind of silver inlaid copper yuan seal before. If it's genuine, it's worth a lot.

Carefully observed, the seal is indeed very exquisite, and the silver inlaying process is also in line with the characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty. However, when he saw the copper show, Chu Chen frowned slightly.

Seeing this, he Lihang was worried. Is there something wrong with the seal? It should not be possible, but I carefully selected it, there will be no problem!

Even though he thought so, because of this change, he began to play a drum in his heart. After Chu Chen's appraisal, he was so nervous that he didn't even use Mandarin, so he asked, "how about it?"

Fortunately, this sentence is short, Chu Chen's language ability is strong, to also understand, and then some regret said: "this side of the seal I don't think the generation."

"How can it be?" He Lihang deeply doubted the result given by Chu Chen, and his expression also appeared a little gloomy.

Huang Shanyi was afraid that he Lihang's impatience might cause some misunderstanding. He said quickly, "Lao he, first listen to Mr. Chu's opinion."

He Lihang heard speech steady steady mind, forced to squeeze a smile, said: "teacher Chu, but also trouble you to say the reason ah!"

"It should be."

Chu Chen said: "it's a good seal, but the rust color is different from that of the genuine one. Generally speaking, the rust of the Genuine Bronze seal is mostly black or green, and it's born inside and seems to grow together with the original seal, which can protect the original seal. The copper rust of the fake is made. It's unnatural to look at it, and most of it will come off as soon as you pick it up. "

"Just like your seal, the copper rust looks very real, but it falls down with a little movement. Please see..."

With that, Chu Chen stretched out his left hand wearing gloves. As soon as we saw it, we found that there was some rusty copper on the gloves, which is unlikely to happen on the genuine products.

Chu Chen went on to say: "in addition to this, the oxidation or corrosion of the fake is different from the chemical composition and sound produced by the weight and quality change of the genuine. This is also the basis for judging..."

It happened that there was a genuine copper seal in the box. Next, he compared it with some small experiments. As you can see, there are some subtle differences.

When the facts are clear, he Lihang can only accept such a result. However, he is a little confused about it and said, "Mr. Chu, I have a question for you. I also have some experience in the identification of the seal. I can feel some old flavor from the seal. What's the matter?"

Chu Chen nodded and said, "your feeling is right. This seal really has some old flavor. As for the reason, it was forged in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. It has been nearly a hundred years since it came to the present. It's normal to have old flavor."

"In addition, it's not uncommon to see your seals. At that time, ancient seals were often unearthed in Luoyang, Quancheng and other places. Most of the collectors of ancient seals sought to buy them in these areas. As a result, the counterfeiters took advantage of this opportunity to make them according to the patterns, sizes and characters of the ancient seals, and then changed them into antiquity according to the methods of counterfeiting bronze and jade articles, causing many people to be deceived. "

"At that time, there were still a set of means and methods for antique dealers to sell counterfeit ancient seals. For example, someone went to an antique shop and told the owner that he wanted to buy a yuan seal with the same surname as his own. The boss said to him, "not yet. I'll look for it for you. I'll let you know when I have it."

"Then, the boss went to the counterfeiter and asked him to forge a yuan seal according to the buyer's surname. After the fake seal was made, the boss gave it to the buyer, saying that it took nine cows and twelve tigers to buy one from others. Thank you very much. As a result, the boss sold it at a good price, and the counterfeiter could make a profit. "

"Because of this situation, many of the popular old yuan seals are forged in this way. Maybe your yuan seal is the sameAfter listening to Chu Chen's introduction, everyone felt that they had gained insight. At the same time, they all lamented the pervasiveness of unscrupulous businessmen and counterfeiters.

Because of this seal, he Lihang also had a certain understanding and recognition of chuchen's identification level, so he immediately asked chuchen to help look at other seals.

For Chu Chen, the identification of seals was not a waste of effort. It didn't take him long to identify them all. As for the results of the identification, he was somewhat speechless.

"Mr. He, did you choose all these seals?"

"I chose most of them myself..."

He Lihang just nodded his head, Huang Shanyi said with a speechless face: "I said Lao he, how dare you choose your own eyes? You forget the past... "

The year before last, he Lihang bought a stone seal carved by Zhao Zhichen, which is called "Zixian Zhuan in tui'an". The seal is "brushwork".

Zhao Zhichen was born in Qing Dynasty. He was named Xianfu, Musheng and baoyueshan. Huang Zijiu and Ni Yunlin, the landscape masters of his calligraphy, painting and seal cutting, are light and quiet, and the flowers, bamboos and stones have the flavor of Ming people. He likes to write Buddhist statues, which are treasured by local residents and jungles. It is one of the eight schools of Xiling. He is one of the sixty famous writers in modern times.

This seal is made of the most excellent material of Tianhuang stone, which is less than one hundred. The quality is extremely transparent, which integrates the six virtues of Tianhuang: "fine, clean, moist, greasy, warm and coagulant". The pulp is bright and pure in color with typical radish pattern and red tendon. In addition, the carving is excellent, which is very enjoyable.

Of course, this refers to the real product, and it is recorded in Ding Chou robbing Yu Yincun. He Lihang bought the seal. At a cold look, the size and shape of the seal were almost the same as the original one, so he thought it was the real one in the seal, and bought it happily.

Unfortunately, one day, he Lihang went to a collector as a guest. To his surprise, the collector was the owner of the real product, and he saw the real product in the collector.

At that time, he Lihang didn't know about his imitation. When he saw the real one, he felt very strange and asked. When the collector heard of this kind of thing, he felt very strange that his seal had been identified by several experts, and it should be true. Is there a twin brother in this seal? This is obviously unlikely.

When he Lihang asked someone to bring his seal and compare it with the real one, he found that his seal looked like the original one on the surface, but if you look at it from the perspective of artistic quality, you will find that its seal is much inferior to the real one in terms of spirit and air.

If you look at the printing money, it is also engraved with "Ci Xian Zhuan Yu tui'an". Roughly speaking, the two are very similar, but if you look at it carefully, the vivid charm and vivid brushwork of the original seal are not possessed by imitation seal.

However, the production of he Lihang's fake seal is not very poor, which can be seen from the materials used. Although it is a little worse than the original, it has to be said that it is a rare Tianhuang.

If you don't distinguish them carefully, you can see that the counterfeiters are very clever. He Lihang has made an eye on this kind of imitation, which is not too unfair.

listens to Huang Shanyi to tell his own year's embarrassment, and he Li Hang can not help but get a long face. Then he gets angry and says, "this is the old thing two years ago. After all these two years of painstaking research, my eyesight is still broken. If you look at the seals of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which one is fake, you should point it out! "

Huang Shanyi spread out his hand and said with a smile, "I'm not an expert. You should ask Mr. Chu about this kind of question."

Seeing that everyone looked at him, Chu Chen shook his head and said, "I think most of these seals are still problematic."

He Lihang was stunned and exclaimed, "what? something the matter? Most of it? "

Although this reality may be cruel to he Lihang, Chu Chen still nodded to confirm and explained some of the problems.

Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the seal cutting works of some art masters represent the highest achievement of seal cutting art in China, with high aesthetic value and appreciation value. Their seals, like calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, are also treasures of collectors. And with the passage of time, those gradually lost famous seal cutting works are more valuable, rare.

It is for this reason that the seals of Ming and Qing Dynasty masters are copied by others everywhere. Many of them are works of Wen Peng, he Zhen and Zhejiang School, which can be said to be almost everywhere in the market. This kind of sentiment is probably related to their great names and earlier ages.

In the Ming and Qing Dynasties and modern times, most of the seals were made of stone, jade and copper. For example, some imitated the original works of famous artists and made seals with the same requirements as the original seals, just like the seals bought by he Lihang before. Some use old materials to imitate the seal style of celebrities and pretend to be the works of celebrities.

These forgeries not only made great efforts to copy the original seal and style, but also mostly forged the stone to make it old, so as to fill the ancient meaning. The main way to identify such a seal is to see if it has the air of a famous person.Take for example the Shoushan stone seal carved by he Zhen, one of the seals of he Lihang.

He Zhen is a famous seal Carver in Ming Dynasty. His seal cutting works are simple, fresh, vigorous and vigorous. He is famous for fluency, elegance and simplicity. At that time, people praised it as "modern masters, domestic" but some seals that are similar to those made by famous masters are not forged intentionally by others

Chu Chen said: "it's like someone studying ancient calligraphy. He doesn't want to pretend to be an authentic one, but what he writes is equal to the level of a famous one. It's called" Fagu, not Fagu. ". Some people copy famous people's seals for private purposes, which can't be compared with deliberate forgery. However, if such works are mixed with famous seals, we can't help but confuse them with the real ones, which makes us feel difficult when we identify them. For example, this seal.... "

After Chu Chen explained all the seals in question one by one, he Lihang began to cry. Although the seal was not deliberately forged, which comforted him a little, the result still made him extremely depressed.

"How could this happen?" he said! I have carefully observed countless times, how can I make mistakes! It should not be possible! "

Seeing his old friend's appearance, Huang Shanyi patted him on the shoulder. After a few words of comfort, he said, "you are not born with the talent of antique identification. In the future, you'd better let experts help you buy things. You don't need this money."

"I just want to verify what I have learned Ah! No more He Lihang shook his head and sighed in frustration.

At this time, Huang Shanyi asked: "Lao he, I feel very strange about something. It's only a few days. How did you get so many seals?"

"In fact, in addition to these seals..."

Speaking of this, Holly hang hesitated, picked out several sides from the seal, and then said, "I bought all the other seals from one person."

"In one hand?" Huang Shanyi was very surprised.

He Lihang said with a bitter smile: "yes, that man is an old man. He said that he was going to immigrate. It's not convenient to take these seals out. Moreover, when he went abroad, it's not convenient to collect them, so he wanted to get rid of them. I was very happy at that time, so I went to his house. I thought these seals were good, so I bought them. I didn't expect that they turned out to be like this... "
