Chapter 88 Key Points of Porcelain Identification

The transaction between Fang Ming and Shen Gang did not attract the attention of others, except Zhou Yafang who had been paying attention to him, because at this time everyone's eyes were attracted to Zhou Jun.

"Is this a good thing?"

After the transaction was completed, Shen Gang also left, and Zhou Yafang walked to Fang Ming's side. She found that her heart was beating a little faster. eccentric.

At this moment, a smile finally appeared on Fang Ming's face, and he nodded lightly. He deliberately lost just now, just to buy this antique from Shen Gang smoothly. Of course, he had already said this just now. This antique is real, but others, including Shen Gang, don't believe it, so when they know the truth, they can't blame themselves.

"what!"

Zhou Yafang screamed in a low voice, she immediately figured out what was going on, then she gave Fang Ming a blank look and said, "You are really cunning!"

Fang Ming spread his hands and said, "I just said it was true, but no one believed me."

"Is it really a good thing? Junci?"

When she said this sentence, Zhou Yafang found that her heart was beating violently, as if a hundred drums were beating.

"Oh, I'm not sure what it is now, but it should probably be Junci."

Fang Ming looked at the porcelain bowl that was still on the table, and scratched his head. He was actually taken aback when he picked up the bowl just now, because if the shadow of Pixiu that appeared on the back of his right hand had any substance, it would be worse than Clearer than ever before!

"It must be a baby, and a big one!"

Such a thought flashed through Fang Ming's mind, almost immediately he knew that he had to be careful, otherwise he would definitely not be able to take this antique with Shen Gang's old background.

When Zhou Jun said that the antique was fake, Zheng Bai said it was fake, and Wu Ze said it was fake, Fang Ming immediately understood that he didn't need to do anything, all he had to do was say it was true.Sure enough, Shen Gang didn't take himself seriously at all, and when he said he wanted to buy this antique, Shen Gang immediately agreed.

10?
You can't buy it with a few more zeros!

Stretching out her hand suddenly, Zhou Yafang grabbed the porcelain bowl in her hand, then looked left and right like a thief.

Seeing Zhou Yafang like this, Fang Ming immediately laughed and said, "Sister Yafang, you don't have to be so careful, they are all listening to Zhou Jun's class at this moment, and they didn't notice you at all."

Zhou Yafang looked around, and found that no one paid attention to herself as Fang Ming said. Everyone was looking at Zhou Jun, and Zhou Jun was loudly expressing his views on porcelain appraisal.

"There are many ways to identify porcelain, but generally speaking, it can be identified from the aspects of shape, glaze, craftsmanship and decoration. However, this method is often ineffective for some high imitation porcelain."

"Old Zhou, why do you say that?
Hearing the questioning voice from the crowd, Zhou Jun smiled even more, looked in the direction of the voice from the crowd, and said: "This is because the craftsmanship of the high imitation porcelain is extremely high. High, often the same as the real thing, so the general method can't identify it at all."

"Then how do we identify it?"

Another voice came out from the crowd. The people who came here today are all collectors. They all know that Zhou Jun is a master in the collection field. Now that there is such an opportunity, they will not let it go. The problem is a Take one.

If it was a different time and place, Zhou Jun would definitely not be as interested as he was tonight. After all, his experience in collecting and appraising is definitely an "untold secret", but he was in a good mood after winning the bet just now, so it is time to talk. Dafa, I can't hold back even if I let it go.

"There are many points. I will mainly talk about a few. First, the quality of the body and the glaze are often too fine. Today's high imitation porcelain generally uses modern means such as computers to analyze the imitated porcelain, such as the composition of the body and glaze. , the formula and the temperature of the kiln where the porcelain is fired, etc., so the high imitation porcelain produced is often almost the same as the imitated porcelain, and it is difficult to distinguish, but it is precisely because of this that it reveals its flaws.”

"Ah? Mr. Zhou, it's too mysterious and contradictory for you to say this. You also said that it is almost the same as the imitated one, but you also said that it was because of this that you showed your flaws. Is this impossible?"

"Oh! I have decades of appraisal experience in porcelain appraisal, and what I said just now is the experience I sorted out. It cannot be wrong. The modern ones are better, especially the high-quality imitation porcelain made by people nowadays. The makers are worried that they will be found out if they don’t look like it. All available means will be used, and the technology used is often the crystallization of modern high technology. , Therefore, when we find that a piece of porcelain is too well-made, we must be careful. Therefore, in terms of porcelain identification, we must be careful in many cases."

While talking, Zhou Jun paid attention to the expressions on the faces of the people around him, and when he found that everyone was nodding, he became even more proud, and continued: "The second is the dynasty style of porcelain. This is also A very important point. Any porcelain is a product of a specific era. The people who make them have different understandings of porcelain due to the influence of special social culture. Simply put, the birds, insects, flowers, etc. painted are different. In the same way, sometimes the strokes will be larger, and sometimes the strokes will be smaller. It seems that the craftsmen do it at will, but in fact it is not the case. This is related to the different cultures of the times. This No matter how high-quality imitation porcelain is, it is impossible to make it well. This is because the background of the time is completely different when the high-quality imitation is made. Although we will definitely work hard to adjust during the process, it is absolutely impossible to achieve the most perfect adjustment.”

"Old Zhou, the porcelain of each dynasty has the characteristics of each dynasty?"

"Of course, for example, the main feature of Song Dynasty porcelain that we are familiar with is its elegant and smooth shape, while its glaze color is relatively pure, and its decorative patterns are extremely delicate."

"According to what you said, in order to accurately identify porcelain, doesn't it mean that we must be familiar with the characteristics of porcelain from various eras? Doesn't that mean that we have to remember a lot of things? Is this possible?"

Zhou Jun said proudly: "Not only does the porcelain of each era have its own distinct characteristics, but each dynasty has different characteristics in different periods and different kilns."

"So, what you said is not wrong at all. You really need to remember a lot of things to play with the appraisal of porcelain. As for whether you can remember? For a collector with strong appraisal ability, there is no need to do this. question."

There was silence in the entire hall, and everyone looked at Zhou Jun, as if they were overwhelmed by his powerful aura.

"Of course, there are other aspects that should be paid attention to. For example, there is no smooth feeling after use. After the high imitation porcelain is made, because the time is relatively short and it has not been played with, there is a kind of "Rough" feeling, of course, there is a special case here, that is, in the Qing Dynasty, there was a kind of "kuhuo", this kind of porcelain was because the porcelain was transported to the royal family in large quantities after firing, although it was preserved for 300 years However, this is just a special case, we just need to pay attention to it when appraising it..."

Zhou Jun spoke more and more fluently, and seeing that everyone was looking at him and centered on himself, he was even more proud. However, he soon lost his complacency, because when he turned his head away Fang Ming looked over, but saw that Fang Ming was talking to Zhou Yafang in a low voice, as if nothing had happened.

"Hmph! I've already lost to me, so it's better to pretend that nothing happened in such a picture. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Jun suddenly stopped and stopped talking.

The people around were fascinated by what they were listening to, and suddenly found that Zhou Jun stopped talking, and immediately called out, saying: "Mr. Zhou, please continue to talk, we are fascinated!"

"Heh, my experience is too little, so I've said almost the same thing just now. However, I think there is another person who has a unique research on porcelain. I hope everyone can ask him for advice."

Everyone was stunned by Zhou Jun's words. After a while, someone said loudly: "Is there anyone else? Mr. Zhou, who are you referring to? Let us get to know each other."

"Of course it's Fang Ming, the most recent figure in our Ningdong City, who has been missed countless times. Next, how about I ask him to tell us a few words?"

"Papa papa", after Zhou Jun finished speaking, he clapped his hands first.

No one thought that the person Zhou Jun was talking about was Fang Ming, so they were stunned. No one could react for a while, so there was only Zhou Jun's applause in the whole hall, and everything else was quiet, so it formed a very strange feeling instead. Weird situation.

Fang Ming was also taken aback for a moment, he was discussing the matter of the porcelain bowl with Zhou Yafang, he never thought that Zhou Jun would set fire to himself again at this time.

"It's true that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop."

Fang Ming shook his head, looked at Zhou Yafang, and immediately made a decision, saying, "Sister Yafang, give me this bowl, and now we can only let them see what a real appraisal is." .”

Zhou Yafang smiled, handed the bowl to Fang Ming, and said, "Go, let them see it."
