My system is not decent

Chen Wenzhe knew that this jade tripod must be an imitation, and the craftsmanship was acceptable, otherwise it wouldn't be so beautifully carved.

However, it really doesn't look like an old imitation, but the partial antique technique is like the handicraft of the Qing palace.

The imitation of court jades began in the Song Dynasty, and the Yuan and Ming dynasties basically inherited the categories and forms of the antique jades in the Song Dynasty.

Antique jade wares of the Qing Dynasty were represented by the Qianlong Dynasty, with more types and quantities of jade wares than previous generations, and more diverse styles.

It can be roughly divided into three categories: one is the imitation of ancient Yi wares in shape;

The second is to imitate the ancient jade of the previous generation to make new jade, imitating and innovating in shape and decoration;

The third is to imitate ancient times in terms of style and implication. Although there are many gains and losses in the shape and decoration of the utensils, it focuses on imitating its charm.

Yi ware is the collective name for bronze ware.

"Yi" is a utensil used by the ancient ancestors to hold wine, and it also generally refers to the sacrificial utensils commonly used in ancient ancestral temples.

It is a general term for sacrificial vessels in ancient Chinese bronze ware in epigraphy since the Northern Song Dynasty, to summarize the functional characteristics of bronze ware.

Also known as "Zunyi", such as bells, tripods, bottles, and 罍.

Qianlong imitated ancient Yi ware, that is, imitated ancient bronze ware in terms of shape, decoration and even external color.

Among all Qianlong antique jade wares, the most distinctive feature is this large number of antique Yi wares.

The main types of utensils include jade tripod, jade statue, jade gui, jade you, jade pot, jade cup and jade furnace.

The body size is between 20 cm and 40 cm. The jade is of good quality and is mostly used for display.

There are two types of antique Yi wares: complete antique and partial antique.

The so-called complete imitation of antiquity means that not only the name and shape of the utensils are imitated, but also the decoration, such as animal face pattern, Kui pattern, cloud and thunder pattern, back pattern, hook cloud pattern and valley pattern.

Partial antique means only imitating part of it.

This one is obviously imitating four different images. The guy who imitated this jade tripod used Qianlong's antique craftsmanship, but he only imitated loneliness.

The biggest failure is the inscriptions on the two ears, and the second is the material. After looking at it for so long, Chen Wenzhe has already seen that this thing is not jade at all, or it is called Afghan jade.

Afghan white jade is composed of exquisite calcite and tremolite. The jade is beautiful, white and clear, and looks like Xinjiang white jade, but the price is cheaper than Xinjiang white jade.

It is pure and moist, with a glass luster, and a special cuteness.

If it is the top variety, it will even give people a feeling of jade color like creamy fat. This kind of top-level arbor oil has a lustrous luster, a smooth interior, thick and moist texture, firm veins, and clear water. It is really delicious. pretty.

Some people say that this thing is a mutated marble, but it is not.

Some unscrupulous businessmen often confuse marble with it for personal gain. The most obvious difference is that marble has an obvious layered structure visible to the naked eye.

The real Afghan jade, though a bit soft in texture, is really beautiful, especially the top-grade Afghan jade, if it has a high degree of moisture, it will be more beautiful, such as this one.

Therefore, Chen Wenzhe's eyes lit up at the beginning, but after taking a closer look, he just gave up.

This thing doesn't need to be looked at carefully at all. At a second glance, he knows that it is a modern imitation, or a modern fabrication.

The shape of the utensil is still antique, but the inscription on it is purely fabricated.

Looking at the beautiful jade tripod like white jade, Chen Wenzhe felt very sorry.

If this is Hetian sheep fat jade, it must be a national treasure.

Even Hetian Baiyu is worth more than 700 million.

Unfortunately, this is Afghan jade, not worth much.

"Boss Chen, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Chen Wenzhe's absent-mindedness, Zhang Jiyong was secretly angry.

Chen Wenzhe glanced at Zhang Jiyong and said, "Boss Zhang thinks, what is this?"

"What?" Zhang Jiyong was taken aback.

"Hetian sheep fat jade? Hetian white jade? Or Afghan jade?"

Chen Wenzhe didn't hide it anymore, but asked directly.

"Suet fat jade? Is this Hetian white jade? How could it be Afghan jade?" Zhang Zhiyong was a little confused by Chen Wenzhe's question.

Seeing his expression, Chen Wenzhe knew that this guy was probably fooled.

I have to say that the real Afghan top jade is still very bluffing.

This thing in Afghanistan is a stone of purity that symbolizes purity.

This kind of thing is also a treasure in the Western Regions.

You must know that the Persian dynasty launched a war of aggression against Afghanistan in the 18th century, and the target was only the precious white jade that is a specialty of Afghanistan.

The material of this jade tripod is considered top-notch, but it does not have the feeling of suet jade, but if it is Hetian white jade to laymen, it can scare many people.

"Boss Chen, don't tell me that this jade tripod was made by Ah Liu!"

At this point, if Zhang Jiyong still can't guess what Chen Wenzhe meant, all these years of his life will be in vain.

Chen Wenzhe knocked on the jade tripod in the box, and the jade tripod made a crisp sound.

Zhang Jiyong looked at the treasure that was always in the box, but Chen Wenzhe never thought of taking it out to take a good look at it from the beginning to the end.

"Boss Chen, just say it straight, how did it become a piece of shit?"

"It's very simple to identify Afghan jade. The easiest way is to scrape it with your nails. The hardness of Afghan jade is very small. You can use your nails to scratch marks on the surface of Afghan jade, while the imitation Afghan jade made of other materials is harder."

Zhang Jiyong's hands trembled a little, he really didn't dare to do it lightly, because he knew that the owner of the antique shop had made it so clear, there should be no fakes.

"It's so beautiful, how could it be marble? Impossible!"

He was already very scared, but when Zhang Jiyong saw the jade tripod in the box, his confidence immediately returned.

Such a beautiful, delicate and moist jade, who would dare to say that it is rough marble?

"Boss Zhang, did you misunderstand something? I said it was Afghan jade, but I didn't say it was marble."

"Isn't Afghan jade just marble? Who doesn't know that?" Zhang Jiyong said angrily.

Chen Wenzhe was speechless and asked the heavens, with this level, how dare he do Baobaozhai?Aren't you afraid of being cheated to death?

Chen Wenzhe shook his head, not as knowledgeable as he was.

"The texture of Afghan jade is even and delicate, with a lustrous luster and a very clean appearance, while the texture of fake Afghan jade is not too delicate and there are certain impurities. That kind of marble is what you are talking about."

"You can scratch marks on the surface of a material with your nails, and even white skin will appear. There is also a material with a glossy luster, and you can hardly see the cotton wool inside. It looks relatively clean, and is often used to pass off white jade or mutton fat jade. .

Fake Afghan jade generally has certain impurities inside, and the texture is not too delicate. Whether it is Afghan jade can also be identified by the feel. Afghanistan is a very light-textured jade.

When you hold Afghan jade and Hetian jade in your hand at the same time, you can clearly feel that Afghan jade feels very light, while Hetian jade has a certain feeling of falling in the hand, which is obvious! "
