Chapter 1523 The Largest and Most Expensive Teacup

The counterfeiting of shadow celadon is only based on the size and shape of the utensils and fired with modern technology.

That is, it can be fired with modern clay, chemical glaze, natural gas or electric fire.

The type of vessel is a typical cover-fired printed bowl of the Song Dynasty, with an unglazed mouth and borders. Most of these items are printed.

Not to mention other things, just a cost price, it is too cheap.

The identification method is also simple. Under the observation of a magnifying glass, it is easy to find that the trim is old leather pasted with modern raw rubber;

The glaze color is bright but not soft, the pattern shape is not as simple as the real product, and the positive pattern of the printing is often more prominent;

Because the fire is too heavy, the sound is much louder than the real product when knocked, and the sound wave is particularly long;

If you compare the bottom of the fake and the real one, it will be more clear at a glance.

Finally, it is the identification of printing technology. The easiest way is to look at the fine grid, or to look at the connecting parts of patterns and decorations.

Modern printing craft works are extremely careless!

This kind of imitation is still the easiest to identify.

However, some things made by counterfeiting methods are not easy to identify.

A common forgery is to carve patterns on plain objects without patterns.

Because the price of those with patterns is high, so there are more people who do this.

After it is finished, it is glazed again and fired in a kiln;

Another category is to add glaze and refire on unglazed utensils with printed or carved flowers.

There are very few such utensils in the world, so there are not many works that have been reprocessed in this way.

However, not much does not mean no, so more attention should be paid.

It is not difficult to distinguish the method. For the former, the sound is not much different.

At this time, first observe the glaze color, the glaze color must have a new color.

Since the authentic product has been buried underground for more than 1000 years, you can usually see the "garry light".

Although modern counterfeiters can also make this light, there is still a difference from the luster of the real thing;

Carefully observe the bottom, the bottom will be glazed and fired again, and the original inherent bottle marks will be covered or destroyed;

There are also patterns that are different from the real ones. For the latter, because the patterns, tire quality and utensils are all correct, the glaze color must be carefully observed.

There are so many ways to cheat, even the current Chen Wenzhe dare not say that he knows everything.

Because as the times change, there are always new methods.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe could only study the more harmful methods of cheating.

For example, the method of concealing cracks. If there are cracks (crossing lines) on a piece of high-grade shadow celadon, the general method of counterfeiting must be to cover up the flaws.

The method is also very simple. First, use a hair dryer to bake the utensils so that they are hot to the touch, and then use a cloth such as a towel to soak in "water wax", and apply the entire utensil once, and the cracks will disappear immediately.

This kind of utensils are easy to be fooled because the body, glaze, pattern, and shape of the utensils are "widely opened".

Of course, no matter how well done, there are always flaws.

It is not difficult to distinguish this kind of counterfeiting method, as long as you know it and have a heart, you can identify it.

Use your fingers to tap the mouth of the utensil in all directions, and it is easy to find different changes in the sound, that is, the broken sound.

Of course, once the water wax evaporates after 3 to 5 months, the cracks will be exposed.

There are many fraudulent methods to cover up the cracks like this, such as the filling method.

On some extravagant utensils with sunflower petals, gaps are prone to appear sometimes, and the general method of falsification is to fill in the gaps.

Grind the entire gap, and then re-polish the new flap at the original opening.

The identification method is not difficult, pay attention to the changes in the type of utensils, and the height of the mouth edge of each utensil has a strict ratio;

Second, there is no glaze on the reground rim.

According to the firing method of this kind of utensils, there should be glaze.

The last method of cheating that is relatively harmful is the method of pretending to be fake.

Because it imitates the kiln mouth of Jingzhen kiln for firing blue and white porcelain.

, There have always been many. In the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the new products of Hutian Kiln were of the best quality and the highest price.

There are very few products that really belong to this kiln.

And some kilns, such as the similar products fired in the Song and Yuan Dynasties produced by the nearby Nanfeng Baishe Kiln in Xi'an, have been very close to Jingzhen's shadow celadon in terms of quality since they appeared.

However, the prices of the two are quite different.

It is not difficult to identify the products of these two kilns. First, identify them from the tire quality.

In any case, the latter is not as delicate as the former.

This point is difficult to see under normal circumstances, only with some appropriate auxiliary tools;

The other is Jingzhenying celadon, the cake material used is purple gold soil with high iron content.

There are also obvious yellow-brown or dark-brown pad bottle marks on the bottom of the container.

There are no Song and Yuan shadow celadon wares in other kilns, let alone modern imitations.

Among the traditional methods of counterfeiting porcelain, there is also a method of grafting.

But it is not popular in the falsification of shadow celadon.

The reason is also very simple. First of all, the shadow celadon uses transparent glaze, which is easy to see the traces of the tire, and it is difficult to handle technically;

Secondly, if it is high-grade printing process Yingqing porcelain, it is impossible to unify the process;

If it is Yingqing porcelain with engraving technique, the patterns engraved on the front and back must be difficult to match in style;

Finally, for plain tires, since the market price has not been high since the 20th century, but the cost of counterfeiting has not been low, the economic value of tire replacement is very little, and there are very few counterfeiters.

Among all the above counterfeit identification methods, it is more difficult to grasp the difference between the genuine product and the fake product's glaze color and their respective weights.

The counterfeit is generally heavier than the real one.

But through long-term appreciation practice, it is entirely possible to grasp it.

Just like the fakes that Chen Wenzhe saw in front of him, although according to the technology he provided, the imitation is not bad.

But in Chen Wenzhe's eyes, it can be said that there are flaws everywhere.

Add to that his old-fashioned approach to cover up the blemishes a bit, and it looks perfect.

However, Chen Wenzhe no longer intends to do such an old high imitation.

Because he already has enough self-confidence to reflect his own value.

That is to say, he no longer refers to being old to deceive people, or to improve his reputation.

It's just that he doesn't point to making high imitations to be famous, but these craftsmen under him are still needed.

Therefore, no matter what kind of porcelain they make, they are doing their best to make it better.

Just like the top ten most expensive teacups he has seen now, besides the chicken bowl cup and the shadow celadon cup, there are many other teacups like this.

Ranked 9th once sold 225 million. It was a Qing Yongzheng pink celadon cup.

This cup is simple in shape, with tough lines, but still smooth.

The color is light and elegant, and the enamel is warm and moist. It is a work that is both good for appreciation and use.

Needless to say, Yongzheng porcelain.

In Chen Wenzhe's opinion, it should be regarded as the most outstanding artwork of the Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, it is foreseeable that Yongzheng's things will be sold at any price.

The 8th place is 483 million, which is a Jian Kiln Rabbit Hair Teacup.

This rabbit hair teacup has a lustrous glaze, and the gold and copper hairs are shining with silver light.

Even if it is not the most cherished item in the rabbit hair category, it is almost the same. It is not surprising that it is so expensive for such a Jianzhan.
