God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 675: Stupid People Have Stupid Blessings

Determining the age through patina is a skill that a qualified antique appraiser must possess.

Of course, there is no certainty about patina. Different materials and different storage environments determine the thickness and quality of patina. However, it is undeniable that patina is indeed a very important factor in antique identification. Experienced players It is to be able to judge the approximate age and state of preservation of objects based on the patina. For example, Comrade Lao Yang, who does not know a lot of Chinese characters, is not a master in antique appraisal, but it is his skill to date through patina. The stunt, this hand, can be ranked first in the peninsula area.

This skill is not innate, and it cannot be taught by others. It is the result of accumulated experience, and of course it also relies on keen eyesight and intuition.

Xu Jingxing's experience in appraising treasures is naturally not very rich, but he has good eyesight, strong intuition, and exceptional memory, so he really learned a lot from Comrade Yang, and those things he learned came in handy at this time.

Of course, the main reason why he can make this judgment is that the patina on the surface of this Shoushan Shishanzi ornament is particularly excellent, moist and full, with a good appearance, a strong sense of age, and it is very complete, and the overall characteristics are particularly obvious. And such objects are the most conducive to identification, basically an insider can see this.

So it is not difficult for him to make such a judgment.

However, Yin Xiaojing is an outsider, how did she buy such a treasure?Did it cost a fortune?Or did you find an insider's palm?
He didn't think that Yin Xiaojing would advance from a pure amateur to an expert in just a few days.

So he raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did this mountain get here?"

"Shanzi? What Shanzi?" Yin Xiaojing was a little at a loss.

Sure enough, he is a layman, and he doesn't even know the name "Shanzi".Shanzi is actually a carving in the shape of mountains and stones. It generally refers to ornaments with similar shapes. Landscape-themed ornaments made of jade, Shoushan stone, chicken blood stone, ceramics, gold and silver can all be called Shanzi.

It’s just that ordinary people really don’t know this name, and when they suddenly hear it, they think it’s someone’s nickname. It is said that Zhou Zhenshan’s nickname was "Shanzi" when he was young.

It's not uncommon for a layman like Yin Xiaojing not to know this name, and he didn't laugh at Yin Xiaojing, explaining with a smile: "In the field of carving, there is a relatively special carving craft, which originated in Yangzhou area. , materials for design, and carving according to the rule of "zhangshan feet tree, inch horse divides people". Most of the themes are landscapes, and the carving techniques are rich and changeable. On the one hand, it forms an organic unity, and the works born from this are generally called Shanzi ornaments."

"At the very beginning, Shanzi was a unique term in the jade carving industry. As long as it was a small ornament with a similar theme and style, it could be called Shanzi Ornament. What’s different is that traditional industries are slowly absorbing and merging, because everyone knows that complacency is the way to death.”

"The one you gave me is a Shoushan Stone Shanshui Shanzi ornament, but the style is slightly different from the traditional Shanzi ornaments. It does not have the exquisite and meticulous carving process of conventional Shanzi, nor does it have rich and varied spatial layouts, nor does it have the vivid and realistic style. The exterior shape adopts the diametrically opposed freehand style, and of course it is also a fine Shanzi ornament."

"Judging from my not-so-rich experience in appraising treasures, this is an old object from the early Qing Dynasty. The price may not be low, and the market price will not be lower than six figures." He paused here, until Looking into Yin Xiaojing's eyes, he asked, "You really want to give it to me?"

Yin Xiaojing was stunned for a moment, "So valuable?"

He smiled faintly, "It may be more valuable than what I said, after all, from 10 yuan to 99 yuan is a six-figure price, and the price fluctuation range is wide."

Yin Xiaojing stuck out her tongue, "I knew I would have hidden it myself, but I am too embarrassed to take back the things I gave away, hee hee, of course, this may not be a big deal to a rich man like you, don't dislike it Just fine."

"you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure," Yin Xiaojing pursed her mouth and bit his neck again, "Little brother, could it be that in your heart, sister, I am a fat woman who reneged on her promise?"

He smiled slightly, and put his arms around Yin Xiaojing's waist, "Of course not, I just want to confirm it, because this thing is more valuable to me, but I'm more curious, where did you get such a treasure?" ?how much did you spend?"

"Hey, guess what," Yin Xiaojing raised her head with a "quickly praise me" expression.

"Falling the price?"

"Well," Yin Xiaojing nodded her head vigorously, then stretched out two fingers, "I only spent 2000 yuan, how about it, isn't it great?"

"It's amazing, it's amazing," he boasted, "But where did you say you got it from, wouldn't it be in the antique market? I think the probability of this is not high, although those people in the antique market often go Treasure, but this piece of mountain is so easy to appraise, you won’t be mistaken if you grab a vendor from the antique market.”

Yin Xiaojing blinked and said, "You're still amazing, yes, I didn't buy this from the antique market." Having said that, she paused, and asked mysteriously, "Do you still remember the old man I met at Shengshi Antique Store last time?" madam?"

Prosperity antique shop?
Xu Jingxing suddenly remembered the Maitreya Buddha pendant he gave to his younger sister. That magical pendant was bought at Shengshi Antique Store, but the original owner of the pendant was not the owner of that antique store, but an old man. Ma'am, at that time, the old lady was holding a camphor wood carving of the long-browed arhat ideal to sell, and the Maitreya Buddha pendant was hidden in the long-browed arhat.

So he nodded quickly, "I remember, of course I remember, could it be that this mountain was bought from that old lady?"

Yin Xiaojing nodded triumphantly, "A piece of news I followed a few days ago happened to happen in that old lady's village. I thought that you had caught a leak in that old lady's hands, so I went in and took a look under the pretext of an interview. The moment I entered the door, I saw this mountain, and I felt very good, so I bought it directly, hehe."

what is this?Fortune favors fools?
This can be leaked, and if those who live by picking up leaks hear it, wouldn't they be jealous to the point of anger?

But this is not the key point, the key point is, how many treasures does that old lady have at home?Is there anything left to pick up?If so, how many more?
