Chapter 810

Of course, broadly speaking, the concept of mounting also includes other mounting methods, but other mounting methods are relatively small, and not too many people use them, such as hand scrolls and albums, which are hardly used by anyone. The vast majority of artisans who do mounting work don't even know these two mounting methods at all.

As for those who are more unpopular, there is no need to mention them, they have basically been eliminated by history.

But then again, this kind of mounting seems simple, but in fact it is very particular. There are many types of mounting styles that are more popular now, such as Xuanhe decoration, Wu decoration, Xingbang, Honggang, one-color mounting, two-color The classifications such as mounting, three-color mounting, antique pool, stunning swallows, etc. are all very distinctive.

It’s just that these so-called classifications are actually the dead crafts that the craftsmen who eat the frame work learned from their ancestors. Generally, they only have one or two or three types. There is less flexibility, so that it will be passed on from generation to generation, although the characteristics will become more and more distinctive, but the path will become narrower and narrower.

Only those who are truly masters of mounting can master almost all styles at their fingertips, because mounting is simply a packaging for calligraphy and painting. As long as the packaging is good-looking and can bring out the characteristics of calligraphy and painting, then it is a good mounting artist.

Of course, it is easy to say, but it is not easy to do, because the real mounting is also a process of artistic re-creation, and it cannot be done without real skills.

So don't look at Xu Jingxing talking well with the old lady, but he hasn't let go yet. He is still testing the old lady's details. He only needs to confirm that the old lady really has the ability to install his "Buddha Picture". Only then will I really agree.

And Mrs. Deng obviously understood the rules, she shook her head with a smile, "I still have some stock in hand, it's enough," and then asked, "What about the shaft cap?"

Axle caps are the covers that hold the center of the painting scroll’s sky and ground shafts, and can play a role of decoration and protection. The shaft caps of ordinary calligraphy and painting are usually made of ceramics, metals, or even plastics. As far as human beings are concerned, shaft caps should not be careless. Many people like to use precious materials for shaft caps, such as gold, silver, jade, ivory, agate, or even tortoiseshell shells.

But Xu Jingxing didn't have any preference, he thought for a while and said, "Use brass for the axle cap, it's simple and practical and not out of the ordinary."

"Well, yes," Mrs. Deng nodded, and said, she took out a picture album from under the coffee table and handed it to him, "This is my work, you can browse through it, if you don't mind, you can come to pick up the picture in a week gone."

One week is considered a standard time, so he naturally has no objection, but it is better to look through those picture albums first.

It is said to be a picture album, but it is actually a photo album. There are all kinds of photos in it, from new to old, dense and thick. Excellent, regardless of the level of the painting, the framers are equally attentive, and they are doing their best to set off the theme of the painting.

Of course, the foil effect that the mounter can play is not very strong. After all, the mounter is too restrictive, and can only work hard on the color tone, format, and material. But because of this, I want to frame the foil effect. , the difficulty is higher.

After flipping through it roughly, he was very satisfied with Mrs. Deng's workmanship, nodded and said: "The workmanship is very good, I have no objection, I will pick up the painting in a week, but the cost..."

Mrs. Deng shook her head and said, "I'll frame it for you for free, but I need you to do me a favor."

"I have to know what I'm busy with first." He had already been prepared for this, so he wasn't surprised. He didn't want to care about it, but he was a little curious about what kind of trouble this weird old lady encountered, and she actually asked for it. On the head of the client he met for the first time.

Mrs. Deng thought for a while, stood up and smiled apologetically, "Wait a minute," she said as she got up and walked to a room connected to the living room, opened the door carefully, and took a peek inside before stepping lightly. Step in, and then pull a little girl who looks seventeen or eighteen years old out.

The little girl was wearing a black and white cow pattern cotton pajamas, she looked very lively, her face was pretty, and her stature was quite tall, at 1.7 meters [-], but she was thin and weighed less than [-] catties See, even though it's not skinny yet, it looks a little scary.In addition, the little girl looked sluggish, drooping her eyebrows and looking listless, and her complexion was quite pale, with only a few traces of blood on her cheeks, which made her look very sick.

But the little girl's attitude is very good, and she looks very well-behaved. After seeing him, she took the initiative to say hello: "Brother Xu," she said with a faint smile.

He quickly stood up and responded, "Hello, hello," he poured a cup of tea for the little girl, and then turned to ask Mrs. Deng, "Old Deng, is this yours, granddaughter?"

"Well, my granddaughter, Deng Caiqi," the old lady Deng nodded and replied, but her eyes were fixed on her granddaughter Deng Caiqi, her palms were trembling slightly, and she leaned forward. An old hen who went out to peck people, but her granddaughter was her target.

Something is wrong, why does this old lady look like an enemy?

He didn't find it funny at all, but felt a real cool wind blowing behind him, inexplicably feeling gloomy, and had a feeling of instantly turning from an urban scene to a supernatural scene.

So subconsciously, it was like opening the eye of truth, but at the moment when his mind just moved, the originally quiet little girl Deng Caiqi suddenly burst into flames, screaming: "My name is Deng Qingqi—" she jumped while shouting He got up, as if he was struggling, or fighting.

It's not uncommon for a little girl to lose her temper, but this kind of temper that comes out of nowhere is too scary. Even if he was beaten to death, he never thought that Deng Caiqi, who was still a quiet and obedient girl just now, would suddenly become like this appearance.

Could it be that this little girl is mentally ill?
No, it's more like schizophrenia, and I even gave my other personality a name, Deng Caiqi, Deng Qingqi, they really look like sisters.

It's just that when he was secretly guessing, the old lady Deng had already swooped over, directly pressed the little girl under her body, held the little girl's arm firmly, and at the same time shouted in an unusually stern tone: "Deng Caiqi, Deng Qingqi, don't fight, be good!"

The strange thing is, following the old lady's scolding, Deng Caiqi gradually calmed down, but the expression on her little face was even weirder, it was the kind of complex expression of anger, struggle, and grievance in the panic.

This was the first time Xu Jingxing saw such a complicated expression on a little girl's face.
