My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower

Chapter 355 The Astonishing Glassware
"Two thousand five hundred dollars for glazed vessels is not expensive," Yuanyuan said.

But she knew that Fang Xing was in the Liuli Factory in Yunwu Village, and the ex-factory price of an ancient glassware was tens of thousands of yuan.In comparison, the glassware in front of me is indeed not expensive.

"That's right, it's not as good as the ones produced in our village." Xu Qing added.

It's a bit worrying.

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed.

At the same time, it also reflects that Fang Xing's glazed wares produced in Yunwu Village have high artistic value and are quite popular overseas.It is said that Boss Yang Wenbo Yang has increased the order again, and he has the posture of promoting glazed ware to the world.

Different from the domestic colored glaze collection market, colored glaze collection has always been a mainstream collection item in the West, and its market value is very high.

"It doesn't look like glassware." Xia Yu frowned.

The others were depressed: Are you stronger than Fang Xing?
From everyone's point of view, the chance of Fang Xing being wrong is very small.As for Xia Yu's level, everyone has seen it for a while.

"Ahem! Maybe I was wrong." Xia Yu quickly changed her words.

Fang Xing smiled and said, "Brother Xia Yu, you read that right, it is indeed not a glazed vessel."

Everyone knows that the history of making colored glaze in ancient China can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty. The material for making colored glaze was first obtained from the by-products of bronze casting, and then refined and processed into colored glaze.

In the Tang Dynasty, colored glaze was even more highly sought after, but most of them were imported.

During the Song and Liao Dynasties, the colored glaze manufacturing industry was no longer monopolized by the royal family, and folk colored glaze workshops had also developed, and glazed products of ordinary quality had become relatively common.

In the Yuan Dynasty, with the man-made fault of the Han culture, many skills were lost, and Liuli was among them.After that, Liuli was only recorded in legends and novels of gods and monsters. The Drifting Monk in "Journey to the West" was demoted to heaven for breaking a glass cup.

Glazed wares after the Ming and Qing Dynasties are not actually glazed wares in the traditional sense, but closer to glass.

Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and explained: "I saw that the bubbles were not right, so I subconsciously thought there was something wrong."

The bubbles of colored glaze are the breathing of colored glaze, and it is also a symbol of real ancient colored glaze.

"Not right." Fang Xing said.

Xu Qing was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"Actually, glass doesn't necessarily have air bubbles. The most perfect glassware has less air bubbles."

Fang Xing told everyone that the raw materials of colored glaze are generally formed at a high temperature of 1150-1400 degrees Celsius. The colored glaze is in a liquid, and the air contained in it has already floated on the surface, so there are few or no bubbles.

However, most glazed handicrafts are fired at 800-900 degrees, and the hot glazed paste flows slowly, and the air inside cannot float out of the surface and naturally forms bubbles.

"Bubbles are generally regarded as flaws in the work, which will affect its aesthetics. However, bubbles are also regarded as a creative concept by designers. Foreign artists say that bubbles are the breath of glass."

Yuanyuan was a little confused: "Then is this glassware?"

Everyone looked at the object in Yuanyuan's hand, it looked like a carved ornament, with a mountain and a sheep.

Fang Xing shook his head: "No, this is a piece of glassware from the Qing Dynasty. However, glassware is actually very valuable, especially from the Qianlong period.

To be precise, this is a Venus glass Sanyang Kaitaishanzi. "

The mountain is in the shape of a rocky mountain, and there are 3 docile sheep in it, with different postures.At the foot of the mountain, a goat on the left looks up at the sky, the one on the right goes down the mountain with its head down, and the other is lying on the top of the mountain, looking back, implying "three yangs open to prosperity".

The four-character inscription "Qianlong Nianzhi" is engraved in the center of the bottom in double vertical lines.

However, there is a little bit of a problem with this one.

It is estimated that the original inscription is a bit diluted, so someone superimposed on it and deepened the color.

Perhaps it is precisely this that makes many experts stop after seeing it.For many antique connoisseurs, as long as there is a slight flaw in the item, they will not touch it.

"Venus glass was only made in the Qianlong Dynasty. The three sheep in the mountain are round in shape, while the rocks are steep and steep with sharp edges and corners. The craftsmen used different carving techniques to achieve the effect of combining hardness and softness.

The Palace Museum seems to have a similar one, but it is more exquisite. "

"Venus glass? I seem to have heard of it." Xia Yu said hastily.

Later, Fang Xing estimated the value of this Qing Qianlong Venus Glass Sanyang Kaitai Mountain Zi at more than 36.

Two thousand and five hundred dollars, a lot of money!

"Are glassware so valuable?"

Fang Xing said to everyone: "Don't underestimate the glassware, the glassware from the Qianlong period has sold for more than 2 million RMB."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Of course, it can't be said to be glassware, and other crafts have been added. I remember that it is called the material body yellow ground painting enamel phoenix dance peony vase, and the enamel technology is added. It's just that the enamel body is made of glass."

Those who know the relevant information will know that the material body yellow ground painting enamel phoenix dance peony burden bottle, the glass body is shaped like a burden, the mouth is wrinkled, and the embossed red belt is tied, plump and full.Small flower wreaths are adorned along the edge, painted with undulating folds, imitating the collection of brocade cloth, which is indescribably wonderful.

And the shape is unique, graceful and luxurious, and it can be called the most precious treasure among the private collections of Qing Dynasty court artworks.

It is only the size of two palms, but it is worth more than [-] million yuan, which really scares many people.

It is comparable to the chicken bowl cup.

The reason why glass body painting enamel is precious and handed down in a small amount is inseparable from its difficult production process.Among the six materials of painting enamelware, the glass tire is the most difficult.

"It would be great if it were glass enamel." Xu Qing said with some regret.

After all, according to Brother Fang, there are less than [-] glass enamelware in the world.

If this one is the same, how can it be several million to be reasonable?
Yuanyuan smiled and said, "I am satisfied, what are you sorry about, little sister?"

"It seems that this store is not so hateful!" Xia Yu laughed.

The others rolled their eyes, if it wasn't for Fang Xingzai, you would all be ready to be tricked!It's easier to say now.

However, everyone is also in a good mood. It is undoubtedly a very cool and happy thing to be able to pick up leaks in such a deceitful shop.

"Go! Go! Go! Scrape away all the treasures here." Xu Qing cheered in a low voice.

Xia Yu chuckled, if it was him, he wouldn't dare to say such big words.But now that the boss is here, it's time to do something big.

"It depends on the situation! That piece is also real, but with a price tag of 20 US dollars, it's not worth buying." Fang Xing pointed to a bronze ware not far away.

It should also be from the Qing Dynasty. It is estimated that it is a Buddhist vessel in the temple, called the Yanjia vessel.It is a container for offering offerings to the Buddha, such as garlands, incense sticks, and flower garlands.

"Is it gold?"

Fang Xing shook his head: "Bronze."
