My system is not decent

After selecting all the jade wares of the Yuan Dynasty style, the rest should be Song Yu.

As for the jade wares of the Qing Dynasty, there is only one Ruyi jade.

Chen Wenzhe searched carefully, and almost all the rest were Song Yu.

This absolutely cannot mean that the jade he found was only one from the Qing Dynasty, and there must be other fragments of jade that have not been cleared out.

After putting away the Ruyi jade, Chen Wenzhe picked up a piece of Song jade.

The jade wares of the Song Dynasty may not be as finely crafted as those of the Qing Dynasty, but their value is not low.

For example, the very classic sunflower-shaped jade cup with dragon handle in the Song Dynasty must be of high value.

Compared with Yu Ruyi, the jade cup is more suitable for holding B, after all, it can be used as a practical device.

Especially this jade cup, which is 7.3 centimeters high, 14 centimeters in diameter, and 7 centimeters in foot diameter.

Jade is white with brown spots.

The whole is in the shape of a six-petal sunflower, with the mouth edge skimmed outward.

A Chilong protrudes from the side of the cup as the handle, and its forelimbs are attached to the rim of the cup. The dragon has a long and thin body, narrow eyes, three claws, a single horn, and a long tail.

The edge of the outer wall and the edge of the foot are engraved with triangular patterns and geometric pattern belts, and the abdomen is embossed with Kuifeng patterns in the brocade ground consecration.

This sunflower-shaped jade cup with dragon handle is large in shape, delicately carved, and luxurious in brocade pattern, which is very rare.

What's even more coincidental is that this is also a jade article with chilong patterns.

It's just that this piece of jade is not from the Ming Dynasty, but from the Song Dynasty. Compared with the jade of the Ming Dynasty, it should be more precious just by looking at the time it has been preserved in history.

This is also caused by historical reasons. The unification of the Northern Song Dynasty brought cultural and economic prosperity.

In particular, Song Huizong Zhao Ji's addiction to jade further promoted the rise of epigraphy.

The prosperity of the urban economy directly or indirectly promoted the unprecedented development of Song, Liao, and Jin jade wares.

Although Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty was not a good emperor, he was an outstanding artist and loved gold and stone art, which had a great influence on the development of arts and crafts.

Therefore, during his reign, various artistic achievements were not small.

Jade, porcelain, calligraphy and painting can all be said to have high artistic achievements.

There are also quite a few jade wares left over from the Song Dynasty, such as the jade cup with a flame pattern ring handle from the Song Dynasty and the jade cup with a dragon handle from the Song Dynasty in the Palace Museum.

And the sunflower-shaped jade cup with dragon handle in front of Chen Wenzhe is not bad at all compared to the two jade cups in the Forbidden City.

In addition, there are many jade ornaments, ornaments and so on.

Like the jade mandarin fish, jade crouching deer, jade crouching tiger, jade cicada, and jade fish of the Song Dynasty.

There are many animal-shaped jade ornaments, and there are even animal-shaped jade inkstone drops, as well as matching wind-shaped jade inkstones.

There are also many ornaments with chilong patterns, and there are many other jade wares with special patterns.

Such as Yunshan double crane pattern jade ornaments, phoenix head shaped jade ornaments, flower shaped jade ornaments, cloud dragon pattern jade ornaments, fairy pattern jade ornaments, pan intestine shaped jade ornaments and so on.

There are also special ones, such as the "Xuanhe" scriptures of the Song Dynasty Yulezi, Yufeitian, Jade Man, and Sanzui Jade Lantern.

The most common ones are jade pendants, such as jade pendants with flower and bird patterns, jade pendants with dragon and phoenix patterns, and so on.

And the one Chen Wenzhe likes and favors more, should be the Jade Cup!

In addition to the first jade cup with Chilong pattern, there are also Yi-shaped jade cups and cloud-patterned jade cups.

These things are obviously not ordinary things.

If there was anything seemingly ordinary among this batch of jade wares, it might be the paperweight by Chen Wenzhe's hand.

The 13.5cmx2cm jade paperweight is really the most common among the jade wares.

Of course, since it is a jade paperweight, it naturally has its merits. First of all, it is made of topaz, but this is not simple.

For this paperweight, a whole piece of topaz material was cut into two to make a pair.

On the whole, the color is mellow and yellow, the texture is fine, oily and pleasant, and it is full of royal nobility.

Topaz has always been loved by the world for its rare material and noble color.

Gao Lian, a man of the Ming Dynasty, said in his "Yan Xian Qing Appreciation Notes": "Jade is the top priority of sweet yellow, followed by suet."

This is actually caused by historical reasons. After all, yellow was invisibly more noble than suet white jade during the imperial dynasty.

On the contrary, in modern times, the dynasty disappeared, which allowed Bai Yu to tie up with Huang Yu invisibly.

The surface of the bottom of this topaz paperweight is partially oiled, and the part is brownish red. The depth is appropriate, following the veins of the jade, and the texture is heated to produce a texture similar to that of unearthed jade.

Its surface is moist and dense, its color is natural and simple, and its pulp is shiny.

In Qing Dynasty Ji Xiaolan's "Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes" recorded oil refining, amber scalding, medicine refining and other methods of making old jade and dyeing jade, which reflects the Qing people's fashion of admiring the ancients and loving Qin.

The device is flat and long, and the main body is rectangular when viewed from the front.

The side view is in the shape of an arch bridge, skillfully imitating the shape of the sword in the Han Dynasty sword decoration.

Another coincidence is that on this paperweight, there is a chilong climbing on it, the heights are well-proportioned, the left and right ends are curled upwards, and the bottom of the vessel is light.

"Shuowen": Chi, like a dragon and yellow, is called a ground mole in the north, from insects, from the sound, or without horns, it is called Chi.

The dragon's neck looks back, his forehead is flat and wide, his eyes are round, his nose is upturned and his mouth is square.

Chilong's eyebrows, eyes and nose are concentrated in the front third of the head, and the ears are raised in a square palindrome shape, which is quite ancient, and the mane hangs down and sticks to the back of the head.

The body is vigorous, the limbs are slender, and the four feet are crawling.

The body is smooth and S-shaped, with the slender Yin line as the crest.

The claws hold the ground, the joints are decorated with swirl patterns and short thin Yin lines, and the long tail is forked and rolled up.

On the whole, this paper weight is polished and smooth, with a mighty and domineering shape, and the knife is round and flexible, and it is very dynamic, which makes people feel as graceful as a dragon, and sighs as if they are astonished.

Paperweights are often made of copper, jade, stone, bamboo, etc., or in the shape of birds, beasts, scales, etc. to make paperweights immobile, also known as bookweights.

The most common ones are rectangular strips, so they are also called town rulers and pressure rulers for some reason.

The original paperweights had no fixed shape.

The origin of paperweights is that ancient literati often put small bronze and jade wares on tops of eucalyptus for appreciation.

Because they all have a certain weight, people will also use them to press paper or books while enjoying them.

Over time, it developed into a kind of stationery, similar to the four treasures of pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Wen Zhenheng of the Ming Dynasty made a special entry for paperweights in "Changwuzhi", saying: Paperweights, jade include ancient jade rabbits, jade cows, jade horses, jade deer, jade sheep, jade toads, squatting tigers, evil spirits, and sons and mothers. style, the most quaint.

This pair of topaz paperweights is exquisite in materials, vivid in shape, full of elegance, unique ingenuity, and gorgeous.

In particular, the chisel carving is fine and vivid, the knife technique is smooth, and the hidden edge is not exposed.

It has a sense of naturalness, which makes people seem to see Chilong climbing on it when viewing it. It has the fragrance of books and royal momentum.

This topaz planed in two forms a complete pair of paperweights, which is quite rare.

It's just that this is another artifact from the Qing Dynasty. Chen Wenzhe searched around just now, but he didn't find another jade article from the Qing Dynasty. So where did this one come from?

Moreover, this piece of jade is not simple. If Chen Wenzhe read it correctly, it should be one of the imperial offerings from the Qing palace.
