Chapter 71： Babao

Tang Miaomiao was attentive, Huang Zhong had already made the move, and she had to accept it. There was nothing to say. She had the confidence to defeat the opponent with her true ability.

Tang Miaomiao could tell at a glance that what Huang Zhong had brought out was a pair of Babao inlays, to be precise, a Babao inlay hanging screen.

Baibao inlay appeared in the Ming Dynasty. It was developed on the basis of Luotian inlay craftsmanship. Its appearance was related to a Yangzhou lacquerware craftsman named Zhou Zhu. He skillfully used pearls, corals, agates and other valuables in his years of practice. The texture and color of the materials are combined into patterns such as landscape figures, and then inlaid on lacquerware or woodware, this is Baibao inlay.

During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there were masters such as Wang Guochen and Lu Yingzhi, and later famous artists such as Lu Kuisheng. The craftsmanship flourished for a time and formed three major centers. One was Yangzhou and the other was the Qing Palace Building Office in Beijing. Another one was Guangzhou at that time. The craftsmen were very good at making patterns. For example, agate, coral, ivory, etc. could be used to inlay lotus roots and lotus roots, which resembled cut lotus root slices and honeycomb-shaped lotus roots. And full of juice come alive.

Tang Miaomiao frowned, Huang Zhong came here prepared, otherwise, he would never choose such an antique.

The characteristics of Baibao inlay are colorful and magnificent. In addition to the precious craftsmanship, it mainly focuses on the materials used in Baibao inlay. These two points are the most important criteria for identifying Baibao inlay. Everyone knows the truth. But wanting to do it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Babao inlays are very difficult to identify. The workmanship is aside. In terms of the various formal materials involved in the treasure chest, a lot of work must be done, for example, to be proficient in coral identification. You must be proficient in the identification of jade, for example, you must be proficient in the identification of various shells. Some of these things are encountered in daily antique identification, but some are indeed the case, such as various kinds of shells. Shells, such things are not involved in the daily antique appraisal, but they often appear in Baibao embedded, all of which make the appraisal of a handful of threads very difficult.

When Zhu Deyuan and Xu Desheng saw that what Huang Zhong had taken out was a white treasure inlay, their faces were very ugly.

"This matter is very troublesome!"

Zhu Deyuan sighed. Tang Miaomiao would definitely be fine if it was a common antique appraisal such as porcelain and bronze, but now that the other party has bought a treasure inlay, it is really hard to say what will happen next.

"It's not wrong, it's really like this. It seems that it is not easy to pass this matter now."

Xu Desheng certainly knows why Zhu Deyuan said that. Baibao inlay is indeed one of the antique collections, but it belongs to the relatively unpopular category. Generally speaking, except for people with special hobbies, ordinary favorites will not collect at all. As a result, many people have not studied this kind of antique at all. Although Tang Miaomiao has an extraordinary vision in antique collection, after all, he is young and probably does not involve this kind of knowledge. It is not easy to pass the customs safely.

Xu Desheng and Zhu Deyuan sighed after taking a look at each other. There is no way at all in this situation. Bai Baojian is a collection that even both of them have a headache. It is very difficult to identify it. Tang Miaomiao is true. It's troublesome.

"Yo! Isn't it impossible to identify it?"

"Tang Miaomiao, since you have opened a shop, you can't even identify Bai Baojian, so it's better to close the door early!"

"Just say, do you accept this thing or not!?"

"If you accept it, you will pay a price. If you don’t accept it, then just say it. But you have to tell me why you don’t accept it. For example, if you think this thing is fake, it’s very powerful. reason."

Huang Zhong was triumphant when he saw Tang Miaomiao frowning. Needless to say, he must have encountered a lot of trouble.

The treasure pavilion was quiet. Everyone was looking at Tang Miaomiao to see how she identified this pair of treasures inlaid and hanging screens in front of her.

Tang Miaomiao was unmoved, Huang Zhong's words sounded like air to her, obviously affecting herself.

Tang Miaomiao knew that Baibao inlay was very difficult to identify, and he hadn't studied it specifically. However, the identification of antiques always had something in common.

Tang Miaomiao concentrated and studied carefully.

The Baibao inlay screen in front of you is framed by red sandalwood, and the gilt bronze engraved flower group is hooked with a longevity pattern. The center of the Baibao inlay screen is affixed with gold. The patterns are respectively a bottle and a mirror. There is a large porcelain vase with a pattern of Yunlong Fushou with a jade ruyi. The other thing is a small case. There is a teapot and a bowl on the case. There is a flower pot beside the small case. It is very delicate, for example, there are plum blossoms pinched by copper wire on the table, and enamel is also filled in, and the mirror base of the white jade mirror is also gilded, etc., all of which indicate that this is a rare treasure inlay.

"There is no problem with red sandalwood!"

"There is no problem with the gilt-bronze and chisel hooks, the original is not wrong!"

"The gilding is real, the craftsmanship is very refined, smooth as a mirror, and the craftsman's skill is brilliant."

"The proportions of the patterns are perfect, and there is no problem with the materials."

...

"This is a real piece of treasures inlaid, a high-quality boutique, there is no problem at all."

"How is this possible?"

The more Tang Miaomiao watched, the tighter his brows tightened, and he was puzzled. Huang Zhong took this thing for the sake of saving his own face. In other words, it was 100% fake, but no matter how you look at it, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

"Tang Miaomiao, don’t you think it’s impossible to understand? You must think that I am here today to find trouble. It is impossible to bring a real thing. The key to the problem is the one in front of you. , You can't find any problem at all, it seems to you to be true, so you can't understand it."

"In fact, the reason is very simple. This is a real thing, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"Tang Miaomiao, you can't be like you. You always treat a gentleman like a villain. You can never be preconceived. Are you right?"

"I'm here today, I'm really not here to make trouble, I'm really just to congratulate you on your opening. This pair of treasures is used to express my sincerity."

Huang Zhong was even more triumphant, and Tang Miaomiao knew that he didn't see the problem.
