Chapter 415: There Are Dates and No Dates
Owning a piece of Ru kiln is the lifelong dream of all porcelain collectors.

However, according to the recorded Ru kiln auction history, once the Ru kiln is sold out, even if it is a substandard and defective product, it is priceless.

In the 20s, a Ru kiln plate with a diameter of only 80 cm and which was deformed during firing was auctioned in the United States. It was not a qualified product.

As a result, in that era, it sold for a sky-high price of 154 million US dollars.

On April 2012, 4, at the Hong Kong Sotheby's auction held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, the Ru kiln boutique - "Northern Song Dynasty Ru Kiln Tianqing Glazed Sunflower Wash" collected by Mrs. Avery Clark was even more impressive. It was sold at 4 million Hong Kong dollars, which was about 1.85 million yuan at that time, and 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars plus commission, setting a new world record for Song porcelain auctions.

It is quite normal not to be able to buy fragments of Ru Kiln.

However, other classic fragments should be available here, right?

After all, the very rare Chenghua Imitation Ru kiln wares can be bought, and it is a remnant wares that can be repaired without missing a single piece. With this kind of luck, it should not be difficult to collect some not so rare high-quality fragments. ?

[-] was nothing to Chen Wenzhe, so after getting the item, he immediately completed the transfer.

However, for the small businessmen in this village, this business is really a big deal.

So it caused quite a stir, as soon as the transaction was completed, someone came to their door.

"Don't worry, this is not a place to talk, go to my house to talk!"

Having just received [-] in cash, Lao Huang is still a little excited.

However, he didn't lose his mind, so when he saw someone coming with something, he immediately thought of the role of a middleman.

The things were handed over to Cao Qingchun, and a group of them came to the house covered with tiles in the west of the village.

This house is Lao Huang's home.

It can be seen that Lao Huang still has a lot of research on porcelain tiles.

At the very least, the tiles used on the walls of his house, although not of high value, are all genuine.

It's a pity that the craftsmanship of these porcelain pieces is not very good, otherwise, these porcelain pieces are all on the outer wall, and Chen Wenzhe can definitely prostitute for nothing.

"Huang San, are you in such a hurry? Can't you just wait?"

As soon as the group sat down, a young man opened the woven bag in his hand.

The vendors here seem to like to use plastic woven bags.

Regardless of whether the ceramic pieces inside are real or expensive, they are all packed in this kind of crappy-looking woven bag.

"It's getting late, we might as well hurry up, as long as it is a good thing, I will definitely pay a high price."

Chen Wenzhe looked at the time. It was almost eight o'clock. He had to go to work today, so he really didn't have time.

"Look at this piece of mine. I am a piece of porcelain from an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty." It was still Huang San who moved the fastest.

Before Chen Wenzhe could speak, he delivered the things to Chen Wenzhe.

"Huh? Are they really official kiln porcelain pieces?"

Just looking at it, Chen Wenzhe was surprised.

He really didn't expect that he could meet good things here.

For Chen Wenzhe, sometimes the excitement of seeing a good piece of porcelain is no less than that of seeing an original piece, because he can see more important value than the original piece.

If it is an original artifact, ordinary people cannot clearly see the tire quality, glaze color, etc. inside it.

But a piece of ancient porcelain can provide some professionals with a lot of important information.

Chen Wenzhe is naturally a professional, not an ordinary person, so he is the happiest to meet this kind of porcelain pieces produced by classic kilns.

The official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty is one of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty. Its achievements in celadon art are world-renowned, and it is also a glorious page of the culture and art of the Central Plains in the Middle Ages.

And Chen Wenzhe has a deep understanding of celadon.

Coupled with the many obvious features of the official kiln, he just took the thing in his hand and knew that it was genuine.

This was too surprising, he never expected that after three pole strikes, a thousand-year-old jujube was actually brought down.

Chen Wenzhe is very familiar with this kind of celadon.

Holding it in the hand, it feels that the carcass is delicate, and there are no particles or breakages.

This thing feels great in the hand and is heavy.

Good hand feeling increases the solemnity of porcelain.

Due to the high iron content of the raw material, the color is purple-brown.

This kind of official kiln porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty has "grey-blue body and gray-purple skin".

The inner tube can be seen from the broken porcelain pieces, so the various features can be seen clearly.

Just like the previous Chenghua imitation Ru kiln wares, it is because Chen Wenzhe can clearly see the inner tube that he can continuously and accurately date them.

Otherwise, relying on his level of guessing, it is difficult to determine what dynasty it is.

Looking at the inner tube, this piece of porcelain, which is the size of a child's palm, has a very good tire quality, at least it is polished very finely.

Chen Wenzhe knew that during the molding process of official kiln wares in the Northern Song Dynasty, all parts of the carcass were cut neatly, and the blank was also finely ground, with no stubble or knife marks left during cutting.

Looking at the glazed surface, the characteristics of official kilns here are even more obvious.

Due to the good firing of the Northern Song Dynasty official kilns, the glaze surface is bright and moist.

There are a few large pieces of staggered patterns, which can run from the edge of the utensil to the foot.

The small patterns are quiet and spread out around the large patterns.

Due to multiple glazing, countless tiny bubbles like beads have accumulated in the glaze layer, which is called "gathering foam and beads".

The glaze layer of this piece of celadon is vitrified well, and the color rendering is very positive. It does not have the coquettish turquoise, nor does it have the floating light of new porcelain, which is commonly referred to as stealth.

The celadon glazes on Ru Kiln and Jun Kiln porcelains in the Nanhe area are all tinged with cyan or pink cyan, with slight flashes of color turbidity. The same is true for the official kilns of the Northern Song Dynasty, achieving an artistic effect close to that of fine jade.

The official kilns, Ru kilns, and Longquan kilns of the Song Dynasty all had this feature, which can be said to be ingenious.

It can be said to be an unexpected joy to be able to get a fragment of an official kiln.

Chen Wenzhe is still very willing to offer a high price for this kind of thing and get off to a good start.

Of course, falsification must also be done. You must know that imitations of official kilns are also everywhere.

The more possible good things you get, the more careful you have to be.

Therefore, I was optimistic just now, and all I saw were the advantages of this piece of broken porcelain.

But now it is to find faults, find out its defects as much as possible, and as long as you find anything wrong, it may be a modern imitation.

Don't think that no one imitates broken porcelain pieces, it's because there is not enough profit.

For example, the price of official kiln fragments is unexpectedly high.

At an auction in Australia before, a necklace inlaid with platinum pieces from ancient official kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty sold for more than 70 yuan.

Platinum pendants inlaid with ancient porcelain pieces. Platinum is not the key point, and it is not worth much here, at most tens of thousands of yuan. Therefore, the real value is the ancient porcelain pieces from the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln on it.
