Rebirth: I am a first-line antique dealer

Back at the hotel, Ding Mao couldn't put it down and played with several snuff bottles, especially two snuff bottles full of green emerald and two white jade ones.

Because the ones he had received before were of higher quality, he wanted to get them when he saw good ones and make them into a series.

Although there is a saying that there are rare products to live in, when there is no shortage of such products on the market, it is necessary to create a series, so that the future market can have a little say.

Ding Mao sincerely thanked Li Mingliang. Li Mingliang actually helped him take pictures of all the beautiful Wanli, Chongzhen and other blue and white porcelains, and recorded the price of each piece.

As long as Ding Mao marked it in advance, Li Mingliang did not disappoint him, and he was not a picky person. Naturally, the benefits that should be given to him were indispensable. Although Li Mingliang repeatedly shied away, it was not enough to work without nourishment. In Ding Mingliang, Mao insisted and accepted it.

The next day was also the last day of the auction, but what was different from the first two days was that the transaction volume of Ding Mao on calligraphy and painting had obviously dropped significantly, and we only auctioned some works of favorite painters. The total price is around 150 million.

When it comes to porcelain, Ding Mao tends to make more frequent purchases. Whether it is porcelain from the Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty, or the Republic of China, as long as he likes it, he will definitely make a move.

For example, the blue and white vase from the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty is photographed today.

The painting style of Chongzhen blue and white porcelain has got rid of the complicated and airtight style since Jiajing and Wanli, and has gradually become clear and bright, usually with dark lace.

Dark lace is a pattern engraved on the rim, neck, shoulder or near the foot of the utensil, such as a simple spiral pattern, a curly grass pattern, or a peony pattern with branches.

The sun or moon is often seen in the background of characters and stories, and some objects are often decorated with inverted banana leaf patterns. Travertine bananas and travertine flowers are often used as backgrounds in the paintings, and daylily patterns and acacia trees are often seen.

Chongzhen blue and white porcelain has more exposed soles, a hard and delicate texture, a thick wall and a thin glaze layer, a hard and smooth glaze, uniform glaze color and rich variations, most of which are white with a bluish tint.

During this period, the green material processing technology was changed from the original water separation method to the fire calcining method. After the domestic green material is calcined, the cobalt content increases and the iron content decreases, which is beneficial to the bright and vivid color.

Moreover, the "water-dividing" technique of blue and white has gradually matured, rendering the colors distinct and varied.

Among many types of antiques, he has always been fond of porcelain, especially the fine blue and white ones, which have a unique charm.

This auction includes all the fine blue and white porcelain from before Kangxi's time yesterday, and more than half of them were bought by Ding Mao.

And there are actually two Yuan blue and white pieces in today's auction.

In addition, porcelain "manufactured by the Master of Bamboo" has also appeared, including the porcelain that Li Mingliang requested via text message yesterday.

This model is a famous official kiln hall model during the Daoguang period. Emperor Daoguang ordered the construction of a "Zhuzhu Residence" in the Old Summer Palace, where he studied and reviewed memorials. Emperor Daoguang also called himself "the Master of Zhuzhu".

At that time, the Jingdezhen Royal Kiln Factory fired many imperial porcelains for Emperor Daoguang to use in the "Zhuzhuju", and the models used were "manufactured by the master of the Zhuzhuju".

In addition, porcelain of the "Shen De Tang" style appears, which is also a building in the Old Summer Palace. It was the residence of Emperor Daoguang and Emperor Xianfeng in the Old Summer Palace.

Some people believe that the "Shendetang made" porcelain can represent the highest level of porcelain making during the Daoguang period.

The porcelain is exquisitely made, and the base and foot of the object are inscribed with the inscription "Made by Shende Tang" in regular script with a red side edge, which is far superior to the utensils of the same period with the inscription "Made in the Daoguang Year of the Qing Dynasty".

In addition, the porcelain auction also featured works by Republic of China porcelain painters Deng Bishan, Wan Yunyan and others, as well as Dehua kiln statues from the Qing Dynasty.

Ding Mao has gained a lot from the porcelain auction, and he will not complain about missing out on any high-quality products, whether they are multi-colored, doucai, pastel, blue and white, blue and white, Jihong, red glaze, alum red, Jiblue, green glaze, rouge Red, turquoise, coral red, etc., or gold, purple, white, blue, underglaze red, etc., covering various types of vessels.

Then I took pictures of a jade snuff bottle, an jade pendant, a tourmaline pendant, a tourmaline eighteen-piece hand-held device, a copper-sprinkled gold pomegranate-shaped incense burner, a pair of jade carving screens, and a wooden painting box.

Among the miscellaneous items, he didn't understand the inkstone, so he didn't take any pictures. As for the seal material, he was still not very proficient, so he just followed the trend and took a picture of Tian Huang's custom seal material.

Tianhuang is produced under the rice fields in Shoushan, Fuzhou. It is named after its yellow color. It is the finest stone variety in Shoushan. It is known as the King of Stones. It is also said that gold is easy to obtain but Tianhuang is difficult to find.

Its hardness is very low at 2.5, its density is 2.5-2.9 g/cubic centimeter, its texture is tight, delicate, warm and smooth, with radish-like fine lines faintly visible in the skin. The color is thick on the outside and gradually lightens inward, and the surface is sometimes wrapped Yellow or black stone skin with red checkered patterns.

Therefore, there are sayings that "no fields can be made without patterns", "no fields can be made without skin", and "no fields can be made without patterns". However, the quality of its stone is still valued for its purity, and there is also a saying that one or two fields are yellow and one or two gold.

When Tian Huang scraped the sample with a razor blade, it fell off in the form of powder, while most imitation products fell off in the form of flakes.

In the end, Ding Mao took pictures of two more Buddha statues before ending the auction trip.

The two Buddha statues are both high-quality products. One is a seated statue of Guanyin made of bronze and gold in Wanli of the Ming Dynasty. It is nearly 60 centimeters in height. The whole body is fully preserved in gold paint, with exquisite craftsmanship and solemn appearance.

Ding Mao decided to take it back when he first saw it, and finally paid more than 20 yuan to get it back as he wished.

The other is a gilt-bronze Amitayus Buddha from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It is more than 20 centimeters high and has the inscription "Made in the Xinsi year of the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty".

In November of the 26th year of Qianlong's reign, Emperor Qianlong celebrated the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday and ordered the Buddha of Amitayus to be cast as a congratulatory gift.

This Buddha statue was eventually bought back by Ding Mao for more than 30 yuan.

After sorting out the auction, Ding Mao realized just how crazy he was this time. He took 269 paintings alone, the largest number of which were naturally Qi Baishi's paintings, and his own paintings accounted for more than a quarter.

齐白石76幅、张大千56幅、黄宾虹46幅、黄胄32幅、徐悲鸿18幅、李可染14幅、吴昌硕10幅、吴冠中7幅、冷军这个3幅、启功3幅、梅兰芳2幅、吴作人1幅、唐寅1幅。

扇子扇面：齐白石17幅、张大千11幅、黄宾虹8幅、启功5幅、李可染5幅、徐悲鸿4幅、吴昌硕4幅，共计54幅。

书法：启功6幅、黄宾虹5幅、吴昌硕4幅、张大千3幅、齐白石2幅、徐悲鸿2幅、弘一2幅、李可染1幅，共计大小作品25件。

Only for calligraphy and painting works, Ding Mao took a total of 348 pieces this time, which is incomparable with one piece in the previous life. This is not a simple step, but a step to the sky. He does not believe that he has so many paintings in his hand. Can’t get started!

Although Ding Mao was a little impulsive and blind this time, and didn't even know which painting was good, what was good about it, etc., he knew the fame of these people. In a few years, their works would double. By then, maybe One or two or three or five items can get him back his money. Anyway, there are so many, and the rest are all for nothing!

After sorting out all the items, the more Ding Mao looked at them, the more satisfied he became, especially some porcelain. Even if the price increased in the future, he would be reluctant to sell it!
