C1444

Qian Shao knows very well that he can buy off yesterday's gangster, but he can't buy the fox in front of him. If he can't get the conditions he's satisfied with, it's even harder to ask him to do it in person.

The so-called conditions of satisfaction are not as simple as money, and there is inevitably a lot of talk.

So instead of forcing him, he took the initiative to go to the stage and see the bronzes. By the way, he tried to find out why he lost to him. That's why he came here tonight and has been paying attention to Lin since he sat down.

As for Wu Younan, he did not take the initiative to provoke, and even intended to keep a distance.

At the same time, Lin Zhe and Kong zhe crowded into the crowd on the auction table and looked at the bronzes. They found that their shapes were ancient and simple, which could be called beautiful. The superficial copper rust on the surface precipitated the unique aristocratic atmosphere of those ancient times.

"Elder brother Lin, I heard the old people say that ancient wine vessels were not simple utensils, but as ritual vessels. There was a saying that wine could become ritual, so correspondingly, there were various wine vessels, which made the wine culture broad and profound. These bronze wine vessels also had deep connotation, and the ritual was hidden in the vessels. Today, I have seen it with my own eyes, and it is true.

there are many kinds of wine vessels In order to show off himself, or for other reasons, Kong zhe suddenly shakes his head and talks about the connotation of these bronzes.

Kong zhe doesn't know how to appreciate antiques, but the heritage of his family makes him have a lot of things in mind, especially the traditional connotation, which makes Lin zhe feel inferior.

After hearing this, Lin could not help but be surprised: "brother Kong, you're very rare. I'm afraid these people here will feel inferior to you in this way. I've been forced to study since I was a child. I occasionally wrote down these things. I just remembered them and brought them to me To sell the key points makes elder brother Lin laugh ··· "

Lin is noncommittal and looks at the bronzes again, but thinks in his heart that Kong Zhe is right. If you want to identify the authenticity, you only need to identify the origin, but to know its value, you must dig deep into the history and explore its cultural heritage.

The inheritance of bronzes is almost well known, and there is nothing to say. It's just that these bronzes were used as wine vessels alone. Besides the bronze culture, they also contain a unique wine culture, which was pursued by the literati of the past dynasties.

"There are wine stars in heaven, and the works of wine are in harmony with heaven and earth"

the ancients thought that wine was made by the "wine stars" in heaven. Zhou Li once described the existence of "wine flag star" in detail. In the history of Chinese Literature, there are countless poems about shangtianzaojiu, such as Kong Rong, who boasted that "the seats are full and the wine in the bottle is not empty" in the late Eastern Han Dynasty In Cao Cao and the book on Prohibition of alcohol, there is a saying that "the sky is shining with wine stars, and the earth is in the county of wine springs"; Li Bai, known as "the immortal of poetry", has a poem "if the sky does not love wine, the wine stars are not in the sky" in his poem "drinking alone under the moon". Li He, a poet known as "ghost talent", also has a masterpiece of "dragon head diarrhea wine invites wine stars" in his poem "king of Qin drinking".

However, since ancient times, people are more willing to believe that wine was made by Du Kang, the wine saint, rather than by heaven. According to legend, Du Kang put rough sorghum rice ball in the tree hole of the old mulberry tree, and then put Qu Fen into the tree hole. A few days later, aroma came out from the tree hole. Du Kang found that there was thick juice floating on the sorghum rice ball, and the taste was wonderful after tasting, so "wine" came out It was born.

Both God made wine and Dukang made wine are indispensable parts of wine culture. The vessels used to hold wine, especially bronze vessels, have a long history.

According to historical documents, the brewing of wine from cereals began in the Yin Dynasty, and bronze wine vessels were also popular here, resulting in many kinds.

The bronze wine vessels of Shang Dynasty are rich and diverse in shape, unique in shape and beautiful. Although the drinking custom of Zhou Dynasty is not as good as that of Shang Dynasty, the wine vessels of Shang Dynasty basically follow the style of Shang Dynasty, and the "Zi people" who make wine vessels appear, and make clear regulations on wine vessels: one Sheng is called Jue, two Sheng is called Gu, three Sheng is called Chen, four Sheng is called Jiao, five Sheng is called San, six Sheng is called pot, and no wine vessels People with the same identity use different drinking utensils. For example, the chapter of "the book of rites · the utensils of Rites" clearly states: "the worshippers should hold Chen, and the humble should hold Jiao."

The nine bronze wine vessels on the stage should have been made by Zi people. A total of nine pieces are divided into one bronze wine vessel, three bronze wine vessels, two bronze pots, two bronze wine vessels and one bronze vessel.

Let's look at the bronze Jue. It was once popular in Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, which is equivalent to today's wine cup. It has a round belly. On one side of the mouth, there is a flow in the front and a pointed tail in the back. There are columns between the flow and the mouth. On one side of the abdomen, there are handles and three conical legs.

Looking at the bronze pot, it is small in size, with inscriptions on it. It is called "drinking pot". The whole pot is oval in shape, decorated with fine thunder patterns, hanging abdomen, encircling feet, catching hands on the top, curved ridges on all sides of the pot and lid, snake patterns on the edge and foot of the lid, bird patterns on the neck, and dragon patterns on the surface and abdomen.

Then there are bronze goblets with round body, trumpet shape, extravagant mouth, girdle waist, ring foot, waist decorated with animal face pattern, no ground pattern, two string patterns on the top and three string patterns on the bottom. The ring foot has a cross shaped hole and a folded edge on the bottom.Then there is the bronze bucket, which is turquoise green, slightly glossy, round basin shaped, shallow mouth, round wall, round bottom, mouth with flow, wall with thin handle, upward curve, handle head with animal head, bottom with three legs slightly outward.

The last bronze drinking vessel is the most valuable one.

The so-called chengzun utensil is used to inherit the wine utensil, which is equivalent to the wine seat. "Ban" is a ritual utensil of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is an important utensil given by the emperor of Zhou to the princes of the same surname and Sangong.

The bronze is a rectangle with a height of about 30 cm, a length of about 130 cm and a width of about 65 cm. It weighs no less than 100 kg. It is made up of three layers of copper stalks with different thicknesses. It is delicate and delicate. It seems that there are no welding seams, rivets or rivets. It is hollowed out and carved with cloud patterns.

In the middle of the forbidden area, it is a rectangular platform for placing utensils. Twelve bronze monsters are attached around it. The monsters have horns, open mouth and outstretched tongue, concave waist, animal face shape, tail roll up, front claws cling to the forbidden edge, and back claws cling to the outer wall of the forbidden area, as if they want to drink the forbidden wine. Under the forbidden area, there are ten tiger feet I can't bear it.

On the whole, it can be seen that the modeling is solemn and exquisite, which is a rare treasure, especially the five layer openwork carving. It can be said that the design is ingenious, and the casting technology is absolutely exquisite, which is by no means comparable to ordinary bronzes.
