My system is not decent

Chapter 428

Since the Nautilus Cup was so famous at that time, the number of manufactures cannot be too small.

Therefore, it is more normal to pass on some of them.

Of course, those that can be passed down to the present can definitely be described as rare.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there are now two cups of the same style.

However, this item is very rare after all, and it seems that there is no transaction record. Now Chen Wenzhe has no way to determine the price.

Since there is no way to estimate the price, it will be handed over to the company's price evaluation department.

Therefore, without any hesitation, Chen Wenzhe uploaded the information to the company's internal network.

"A Nautilus, or a Nautilus Cup? The Nautilus can be won for a maximum of one million, and the profit will not be low. If it is a Nautilus Cup, then be careful, this thing is easy to break."

The person who looked back at the message turned out to be Lin Dong. This kid is nailed to the Internet every day?

Although curious about how he did it, Chen Wenzhe was even more curious about how he knew about this rare cup.

"Hey, is it difficult to find transaction information online?"

Lin Dong knew the market situation very well, and he knew what Chen Wenzhe was thinking.

No matter what industry it is, can people's food skills be exposed to their peers?

In the past, he relied on speed to evaluate the price, but now, he relied on real skills.

"Brother Lin is amazing, tell me, let me gain some insight!" Chen Wenzhe flattered against his will.

"It's really nothing. You couldn't find it in the company before, but you can find it later. I made it up."

At this time, Chen Wenzhe seemed to see Lin Dong's complacent look.

After today's transaction, everyone in the company knows the price of the Nautilus Cup, and there is nothing he can do if he doesn't make up the recording.

"Actually, there are very few transactions of Nautilus in China, and even fewer Nautilus Cups. On the contrary, there are several transaction records abroad, but not many. There are also some secret transactions among them, such as one hidden in the British Queen's Palace. A nautilus goblet, which seems to have been made by a master in Germany more than [-] years ago."

"There are also Nautilus cups in foreign countries?" Chen Wenzhe really has little knowledge of foreign cultural relics.

Good stuff, everyone will see, it can be said that the Nautilus is a fascinating creature.

In Jules Verne's "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea", the ship sailing on the seabed driven by Captain Nemo is called "Nautilus".

And this Nautilus Cup is not only recorded by our predecessors in poetry, but also a treasure that is very popular among European royal families and nobles abroad.

During the Renaissance and Baroque period, they discovered the nautilus, a wonderful ancient creature.

Mathematicians are amazed by the wonderful structure of the inner shell chamber of its shape, and artists are amazed by its elegant and mysterious beauty.

They used this rare sea creature to create a luxurious wine vessel, the nautilus cup.

The prominent royal families and nobles of all dynasties in Europe are proud of the Nautilus Cup with the ultimate craftsmanship.

There are still many nautilus cups preserved and collected by them.

Those nautilus cups, many of which can be clearly seen, are the product of the combination of Chinese and Western.

That is to say, their production of Nautilus glass wine vessels is also influenced by domestic influence.

"The batch of Nautilus cups they made was nearly 1200 years later than the Western Jin Dynasty, but it is certain that Europeans at that time also regarded Nautilus cups as treasures."

As soon as Lin Dong said it, Chen Wenzhe understood.

That was more than [-] years ago. At that time, Europe had already embarked on a great voyage, right?

The Age of Discovery, which began around 1500 AD, brought rare treasures from all over the world to Europe.

However, he did not expect that the nautilus cup, which is rare in China, is more common abroad.

According to Lin Dong's introduction, various Nautilus cups are displayed in major museums in Europe today.

He also sent a few pictures, Chen Wenzhe looked at it, it was really good.

These nautilus cups have slender and exquisite bases, long handles and cup tops with ingenious shapes, and intricate patterns or religious paintings are carved on the shells. They are more like works of art than practical objects.

At that time in Europe, the goblet made of the almost extinct nautilus also became a symbol of wealth in the upper class, and was chased by the rich and powerful.

Things are rare and precious, and are sought after by people, so transactions are inevitable.

Lin Dong sent him a picture, which was a nautilus cup produced in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in the mid-17th century, and it had obvious oriental elements.

On the upper and lower parts of the cup, there are two soapstone statues, which are our characters at first glance.

It is said that these two statues were imported from China in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

The Dutch craftsmen combined them with their own nautilus to get such a nautilus cup with a strong oriental style.

The reason why I specifically talk about this Nautilus Cup is because it was also auctioned at Sotheby's Auction House, with an estimated price of 12 pounds at that time.

For foreigners, although the statue is an imported product, it does reflect the mutual influence and spread of jewelry culture at that time.

And it also let us see that this Nautilus cup is indeed very popular with Chinese and foreign aristocrats.

Otherwise, she would not have been liked by people across the ocean from the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasties to the Qing Dynasty.

And to this day, we are still fascinated by it because of a scene or a line of poetry.

Maybe this is the charm of the jewelry of the predecessors, if you don't see it, you will never forget it.

"Estimated at [-] pounds, it should be able to be exchanged for [-] million yuan at that time, right?"

Chen Wenzhe is still very good at grasping the key points. Lin Dong said so much, doesn't it mean that this thing can be sold for more than one million yuan?

However, [-] million, isn't it a little low?
He doesn't know the value of the nautilus cup, but he knows the price of the nautilus.

In China, the price of nautilus has been raised to millions. Could it be that a precious nautilus cup with at least a thousand years of history is worth about the same as the current nautilus shell?
how can that be?Obviously, Lin Dong didn't finish his sentence, after all, what he said just now was the valuation, not the transaction price!

"Do you feel that the price is low? Low is right, a masterpiece from the Rothschild collection, a German silver-gilt Nautilus Cup, sold at Christie's London on July 2019, 7, with a transaction price of 4 pounds!"

"Three million? It's two or three times that of shells, not bad." Chen Wenzhe said casually.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he knew that it was definitely wrong for him to evaluate the price in this way.

Can foreign countries be the same as domestic ones?The price of this thing abroad is obviously low.

Whether it is a Nautilus or a Nautilus cup, the price is lower than that in China.

In addition, the two kinds of Nautilus cups at home and abroad have obviously different survival times.

"Haha, if you want to estimate it like this, it will make the company lose money!"

Sure enough, Lin Dong was delighted when he heard it.

The price is definitely not evaluated in this way, and geographical factors, cultural factors, time factors and so on must be taken into consideration.
