My system is not decent

No matter what era, as long as it is a daily necessities, there are many people who need it.

And when more people are needed, more will be produced.

Therefore, all kinds of porcelain boxes, whether in the Song and Yuan Dynasties or in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, have many varieties.

For example, the blue-and-white covered boxes of the "Wanli" shipwreck have rectangles, rectangles with Japanese corners, and ovals.

As for the boxes in front of me, there are also all kinds of boxes. In addition to the different shapes, the glaze colors are also different.

On the contrary, the theme decorations should be the same, generally there are seahorse patterns, flower patterns, banana leaf patterns and so on.

This kind of salvage porcelain is rare in China.

As far as Chen Wenzhe knows, there are only 2 pieces in domestic collections.

A box with a blue and white banana leaf pattern cover and another box with a blue and white floral pattern cover.

These two lid boxes are both oval-shaped, and the lid is a dome opening.

The theme decoration is blue and white banana leaf pattern and blue and white mountain stone flower pattern, with blue and white brocade ground and ribbon pattern as the border.

There is a raised partition in the middle of the box body, which divides the inner space of the box into two parts, and the outer wall is decorated with bluegrass patterns and flowers at will.

The blue and white hair color is blue, the carcass is firm and dense, practical and generous.

Stacks of porcelain boxes piled up together, it is still very gratifying to look at.

It turns out that there are very few salvaged porcelains in China, and it will be different in the future.

"Boss, this batch of porcelain is the oldest, isn't it also the most precious?"

By the time the outflowing porcelain became scarce and the personnel and equipment began to return, Gao Qijing had already been idle.

"Are you done?" Chen Wenzhe put down a mirror case in his hand and said with a smile.

The reason why I pay attention to this mirror box is that it should be a boutique on this merchant ship back then.

This is a Cizhou kiln porcelain mirror box with white ground and black flower lotus pattern. It is the representative porcelain of Cizhou kiln in Ming Dynasty, and it is white glaze and black flower porcelain.

It is 12.2 in height, 21.5 in diameter and 8.5 cm in bottom diameter.

This should be the only porcelain mirror case with definite functions and words so far.

A large number of porcelains came out of the water, and all kinds of strange porcelains appeared, which made Chen Wenzhe very happy.

"Violent salvage is naturally very fast. We have even salvaged the broken deck of the sunken ship. Now we have started to return quickly. Once we enter our country's waters, we will be safe." Gao Qijing said proudly.

Chen Wenzhe nodded, he was not too worried about safety.

They have been here for more than half a year, and people in China have long paid attention to them.

Therefore, the fleet over the South China Sea would naturally come over and wander around from time to time.

Other countries need freedom of navigation, why not our country?

We need it too, so here we also have freedom of navigation.

This is the important reason why few countries dare to speak out about Chen Wenzhe's open grab here.

Therefore, this time, after fishing porcelain from the sea and bringing it back to China, he must not be alone.

Besides, the quantity is too large, even if most of them are sold, his exhibition hall will not be able to fit them.

What's more, all these salvaged porcelains need to be processed, and a large number of porcelains that are now being shipped back to China require a lot of manpower to protect and restore them.

Swallow

No matter how rich Chen Wenzhe was, he couldn't find many people to help him with the work.

In this regard, the most professional is the state.

Since he can't do much work himself, he might as well let some of it go.

Only by sharing can we win-win. Otherwise, we will only take advantage and not suffer losses. Who will come forward to help him in the future?

Chen Wenzhe is not a Pixiu who only eats and does not pull. He knows how to share.

And this is a win-win situation. At that time, he only needs to hide behind the scenes.

"What is this?"

Regarding safety issues, Gao Qijing is not worried, because there is a large ship escorting them nearby!

Now Gao Qijing is most concerned about the harvest this time, because it is related to their bonus for more than half a year.

"This is a lid box for mirrors. It is a precious antique, but it is not the most precious among this batch of porcelain."

"For mirrors? By the way, we also salvaged some glass mirrors. Could it be that they were put in these boxes?" Gao Qijing asked with a strange expression.

"Ah? Really found a glass mirror? I thought it was a bronze mirror, what a pity."

As he said that, Chen Wenzhe laughed. Glass mirrors were not ordinary things in ancient times, and they could even be said to be the top luxury item.

Modern people definitely value mirror boxes more, but ancient people cherish glass mirrors more.

Is this an alternative way of buying and returning pearls?Modern people just want porcelain mirror cases, not the pearls inside.

Looking at the mirror box in his hand, Chen Wenzhe felt that he should have learned the firing technique of Cizhou Kiln to perfection.

This is really a high-quality piece of porcelain. The overall decoration of this mirror box is black ground with hundreds of flowers. The top of the mirror box is written with two Chinese characters of mirror box, which clearly defines the function of this piece of porcelain.

The interior is painted with black ground, and the workmanship is exquisite, which shows the importance attached to this piece of porcelain.

As for glass mirrors, they appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, but ordinary people could not afford glass mirrors, so bronze mirrors were still the main ones.

Even in the Qing Dynasty, glass was gradually popularized in our country, but only dignitaries and courts could afford glass mirrors, and almost no folks used glass mirrors.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe originally believed that the large-scale mirror boxes should be filled with bronze mirrors.

"Well, I remembered. There were also some dark round objects. We couldn't see what they were at the time, but they were salvaged because they were metal. Now that I think about them, they should be bronze mirrors."

Looking at Gao Qijing who suddenly realized, Chen Wenzhe was a little speechless.

The bronze mirror is corroded by sea water, so it is naturally ugly, but it is not unrecognizable, right?

Soon, a large pile of tatters appeared before Chen Wenzhe's eyes.

No wonder Gao Qijing looked down on him, if he wasn't knowledgeable, no one would look down on him.

But when Chen Wenzhe took a look, he knew that these were all bronze mirrors that came with the mirror box.

These bronze mirrors are all standard made in China, because they have obvious characteristics, most of them are round and square, and they are relatively small, which is about the same size as the mirror box;

These bronze mirrors all have the typical characteristics of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and there was a habit of collecting ancient bronze mirrors during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Among these bronze mirrors here, there may also be a fine product.

Only in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ancient bronze mirrors collected by dignitaries and dignitaries, and they were more cherished, would a Cizhou kiln mirror box be customized.

There is also the porcelain mirror box with black background and white flowers, which is the characteristic of Cizhou kiln porcelain.

As for those glass mirrors, Chen Wenzhe also took a look at them, and he found that these glass mirrors were also unusual.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, glass mirrors were mostly handle mirrors, that is, mirrors with handles.

Because the glass mirrors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties were imported from foreign countries, they were not like the large glass mirrors that people can use today, so the price must be expensive, and they are all small glass mirrors.

"Huh? This mirror is not bad."

While cleaning the dirt on the mirror surface, arrange a lot of mirrors neatly.
