Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?
Chapter 481 It’s okay to date to Qin Shihuang
Chen is known as the largest collector in Singapore. Although he did not make donations like Mr. Yang, when the mainland art market was just emerging at the beginning of the new century, many of Chen's collections were entrusted to Baoli, Guardian, Hanhai, and Duoyun. Xuan and other companies conduct domestic auctions.
Of course there is a connection, so he can get basic information with just one phone call.
A top expert in his twenties can destroy the antiques market in a provincial capital city (Shenyang) with a picture album and a few photos?
It was like a science fiction movie, but he learned from more than one source that this was a fact.
If you don’t make friends with such experts quickly, what are you waiting for?
What a pity Zhang Shibo, what a good opportunity?
After a second thought, Chen Jiasheng stood up and walked towards the corner, but before he had taken two steps, there was an exclamation from behind.
He turned around: on the stage, a colorful and lifelike Buddha statue was pushed up.
Where do you have time to make friends with experts?
Chen Jiasheng sat back and said, "Uncle Chen, please look carefully!"
"Third Young Master, don't worry!"
……
There was a commotion below, and just like before, a swarm of swarms came onto the stage.
Tang Jiali's red lips were half-opened, and her eyes revealed the intoxicating color.
Liao Sancai, Eighteen Arhats?
After nearly two months of hard work, I finally saw the real face. It was a worthwhile trip...
In the corner, Li Ding'an sighed secretly: Here comes the drama.
All the previous cultural relics, even deliberately allowing Quan Ying to take advantage of them, weren't they just to pave the way for this thing?
What is this called?
Please enter the urn.
Seeing Li Ding'an stand up, Quan Ying stared at him suspiciously: "What are you doing?"
"Take a look!"
Haven't you seen it?
Suddenly, Quan Ying's heart skipped a beat: Is there something wrong with the thing?
But no matter which one it is, it has nothing to do with her and Chen Jingshu.
The reason is very simple, just one word: expensive.
Even if the discount reaches your ankles, it is estimated to start at "one billion"...
There were too many people surrounding the Buddha statue, so Li Ding'an did not move up, but just looked at it from a distance.
First look at the body and glaze: the body is warm and moist, white with a hint of yellow, and looks like beige. The painting technique is skillful, and there are no fetal tears (glaze juice flow marks). The glaze is extremely thin, and the fetal color is hidden.
This is a typical feature of Dingzhou kiln and Cizhou kiln from the Tang Dynasty to the Five Dynasties, but it is precisely because of this that the imitation looks like:
"History of the Liao Dynasty·Xiao Aguzhi Biography": At the beginning of Tianzan (the second reign of Yelu Abaoji), he and Wang Yuluo led Yan and Zhao to Pociyao Town...
Not to mention the shape of the vessel: since the beginning of porcelain statues, there has been no porcelain figure in any dynasty or generation that is more lifelike and three-dimensional than the three-color Arhat of Liao Dynasty.
Look at the color: it's new but not dry, bright but not oily, and the glassy surface has obvious signs of aging. No matter how you look at it, it looks like it has been placed in a dry and ventilated environment for thousands of years...
Anyway, just by looking at it, you really can't see any signs of distress.
But to say that he couldn't identify it was impossible.
The first is clay: Khitan is located in the north, and the porcelain clay has yellow sand, and the glaze is thin, so the surface of the Arhats in the cave has slightly raised sand grains.
This bottle does not.
This is not because the raw materials are wrong: the porcelain clay is still yellow sand porcelain clay, or the porcelain clay used is crushed yellow sand porcelain shards from the Liao Dynasty. It is just because the machine is used that the powder is too crushed and too fine, so there are no sand grains on the glaze. .
In order to make up for this, when making high imitations, the counterfeiters sprinkle a layer of sand on the surface of the molded mud tires. But it was sprinkled too evenly and dispersed, and it was quite different from the original porcelain.
The question is, have these guests in the venue ever seen what the original Arhat looked like?
Without comparison, there is naturally no way to argue.
The second is the tire: Li Ding'an is 3% sure that this bottle is definitely a D replica of a plastic tire, otherwise it would never be so similar.
It is also very simple to prove it dialectically, just weigh and calculate the density: the density of machine-made plastic is high, and the density of hand-made plastic is low. But again, there must be a comparison object.
There is a third way, smash it open.
Just like the original dragon-patterned vat, as long as it is broken open, the authenticity will be clear at a glance.
But it is not necessary.
After waiting for a long time, the people around the porcelain statue gradually dispersed, and Li Dingan walked over.
Like, really like.
The shape, color, texture, glaze, engraving, and all the processes of the vessel are all in line with the three colors of Liao Dynasty.
Especially the raw materials: the deep well mud from the old Liao Sancai kiln site must be used, or the old porcelain pieces dug out from the ruins, otherwise they will not be able to fool various dating instruments.
Li Ding'an was heartbroken: "Can you check the export records of each kiln factory in Chifeng Gongwa Kiln? Have you exported porcelain to foreign countries recently?"
The Eighteen Bottles of True Arhat came from here. If it were Li Ding'an who was a fake, he would definitely have used old clay or porcelain pieces from here.
Wang Chengming was startled for a moment and winked at Assistant Liu. She took out her phone and clicked a few times quickly.
Li Ding'an continued to look. The more he looked, the more focused he became.
If it was just like before, now it is exactly the same:
The glaze is thin but thick in color, bright in color but not drying out. There are typical bamboo silk patterns passed down from the Dingzhou kiln in the Tang Dynasty, and the carving process passed down from the Cizhou kiln and then re-glazed...
These 3D replicas cannot be reproduced and can only be made by hand, but the damn thing is that they feel more like 3D replicas.
Especially for the sense of age, let me just say one thing: the glaze is turbid but not cloudy, milky but clear, and it has definitely been devitrified.
But Li Ding'an couldn't see any trace of the use of chemicals to make it look older.
He got closer and smelled it, but it had no taste, and then tasted it with his saliva on it.
Still tasteless.
But it shouldn't be.
How long has it been since he discovered the Arhat statue? Four months is enough to count.
Even though the counterfeiting started four months ago, it only took about a hundred days. If you want to achieve a sense of age that can deceive people's eyes, you can only use chemicals to make it look old.
The problem came again, it only lasted for a hundred days, and the smell could not be dissipated at all.
Furthermore, there is no way to avoid the detection of high-tech instruments: for example, the physical aging and polishing of butter wipes to achieve the phenomenon of "natural devitrification" can be accurately measured with instruments.
Therefore, there must be other methods, and they are advanced and concealed enough, even more concealed than the old-fashioned method of the dragon-patterned vat.
But after searching his mind, he had seen it once: those light porcelain cups brought from the Forbidden City in Shenyang. It’s not an exaggeration, it’s not ground into slag, and it’s not possible to detect it unless it’s sent to a professional laboratory for testing…
Hmm, light porcelain?
A light suddenly flashed in Li Ding'an's mind.
I'm in trouble, how is that possible?
It was a completely subconscious action, not controlled by the brain, and his hands covered Arhat's body.
The staff member standing by was startled: "Sir, you can't touch it!"
But how could Li Ding'an care about this?
It was like tens of thousands of bees were burrowed into my mind, buzzing: material, rare earth optical ceramics...
Yes, what kind of devitrification effect can rare earth optical ceramics not achieve?
Not to mention Liao, as long as Lin Ziliang is willing, he will have no problem dating the instrument to Qin Shihuang. (End of chapter)
