The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer
Chapter 791: 6 "coffee cups"
In New Haven’s election, it was not the treasure-holders who stepped forward with the objects, and then three or four experts sitting in jeopardy detail and appraised them one by one, and finally there was a drama like "Four Kings Fighting for Treasures".
The atmosphere of the recording scene here is much more casual and relaxed: the hall is the filming scene, and there are many tables and shelves of large and small. Thirty or forty treasure holders put the objects they brought on the shelves or tables, and then two Each host will have two experts as staff members, and three treasures will be selected from them.
Finally, four experts conducted consultations and evaluations, and a baby that best represented the history and culture of New Haven was selected.
If there is more champagne or something on the spot, it can be a cocktail party, and the atmosphere is very relaxed.
There are also a few pieces of sand, chairs and a small coffee table next to it as a rest area. Champagne is not available, but juice and mineral water are provided, as well as hot coffee.
Zhang Nan was not eager to look at those objects. Instead, he sat in a chair and watched the filming scene for a while, and said: "It's pretty good, Henry, the form is changeable, and your niece is also a little good, worthy of praise. Hold."
Henry, who was sitting diagonally across from him, smiled and said, "If I don't have any professional ability, I wouldn't dare to use power for personal gain. I have to live a good life."
"I don't want to avoid my relatives...it doesn't matter if I don't understand, I did a good job.
The previous sentence was Chinese, and Henry Debosson caught the blind directly, but it was good to know that the boss was complimenting him.
At this time, only five or six meters away from here, Anna Phillips looked at a pile of cups. The holders were a middle-aged couple in their fifties.
Zhang Nan's hearing is good, and the conversation over there is very clear: I said before shooting that when the host stays at a position of the treasure holder to shoot, ask others to speak at a lower volume as much as possible.
There is no need to mute the venue, and the format of this issue is relaxed, even with some features.
The quality of the citizens of New Haven is good, and it was Zhang Nan who had the loudest throat in the entire venue just now.
Anna Phillips, who walked past, said to the middle-aged couple: "Are you planning to drink coffee? The museum has prepared great Jamaican coffee for us."
A joke, because the six cups are similar in style to the large coffee cups in Henry's hands, with painted and gold rims on them. But because of the long distance, Zhang Nan couldn't see what the pattern above was.
Then...
Funny!
The housewife smiled and said to the host: "These are my father's shaving cups. They are collections he collected in the 1940s and 50s. They have been hung on the wall before."
In an instant, Anna's expression was a bit embarrassing, and this paragraph was obviously recorded by the two cameras that followed.
"We checked some information. These cups may be older than my father-in-law. They should be from the end of the 19th century or the beginning of this century. At that time, these cups were very popular."
The middle-aged man came to a magic knife, not knowing what Anna was thinking about.
However, according to the habit of American TV shows, her unlucky embarrassing image will almost always be a small highlight in this episode-the host, not an expert, is not ashamed.
Regardless of what the host thinks, Zhang Nan almost lost the coffee cup in his hand-there is no Longjing and there is no Huibai. I just got myself a cup of coffee. Of course, the cup style is exactly the same as the one in Henry's hand. .
Before Zhang Nan had always thought that the six cups over there were coffee cups. As a result...
Anna simply becomes a thorough layman, and then asks how to use this shaving cup?
The man not only talked freely, but also moved his hand in a circle to indicate: "When a customer needs to shave, the manager will put shaving powder in a cup and stir with water..."
Zhang Nan put down the coffee cup in his hand, and his curiosity drove him to get up and walk over. Besides, he would never have any interest in coffee for at least a period of time.
There were also a few other full-fed people nearby watching the excitement, but they all consciously stood two or three meters away, and there were not many people, so they didn't disturb the shooting.
Zhang Nan also stood at this distance, watching the conversation between the cup holder and the host, and taking a look at the cups by the way.
Basically it has a white background, only one has a wine red background; two are decorated with scene and figure paintings, and one has a locomotive painted on the top of the cup, and the other few have only a few points blocking the pattern.
At this time the housewife said: "It is said that customers will have their own cups..."
"The customer will take it home by the way after using it?"
"No, Anna, the cups are basically stored in the shop. This is so convenient that the manager can also let others see his regular customers in this shop..."
The housewife has a good memory, because at the beginning of the recording, the two presenters introduced themselves.
It can be seen that Anna is very interested in these cups, because she has never noticed such objects. Besides, these cups are not only exquisite, but also seem to represent the American culture of an era-she has a husband, but her husband uses it. It's an electric shaver.
As for her father, he would use a cup to foam when shaving 20 or 30 years ago, but he used a dental crock to make do.
Now it's the expert's turn to play.
She is a female expert, Donnie Rudiger, who is more than sixty years old. As for her profession, she is not an antique dealer or a museum researcher, but the owner and manager of a well-known local old-fashioned shop.
It’s fun, this is the absolutely reliable expert in the eyes of Americans. If this type of expert speaks, the audience will buy it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is the advantage of separating the audition and the regular election, and it can advance the experts who need it. Get ready for it. Of course, after the two hosts have selected the six objects they need, they can go to the store or museum to find an expert to be firm.
The form is flexible and never stereotyped.
American-style compliment, the one Donnie praised these cups as great as she got started, two of them are better than her collection, and she has never seen such exquisite and great antique shaving cups.
After watching the excitement, Zhang Nan learned that this kind of shaving cup was popular in the 1880s in the 1880s, and in the upper-grade shop where such exquisite shaving cups were available, you can get a beard after a single shave. It costs 1o cents.
Even at the end of the 19th century, 5 cents was indispensable.
It can’t be said to be expensive, but it’s not cheap either: A hundred years ago, the large American chain “Sears” had the habit of printing the annual "Product Catalog". The retail prices of some commodities recorded in the catalog in 19o8 were like this: a full set of large carriages 1oo yuan, 4o yuan for small size; 14 yuan for the latest Mississauga sewing machine with seat; 1o yuan for hand-cranked telephones, 2 cents for battery; 13 yuan for camera; 15 yuan for bicycles, both new models in 19o8;
Long guns start at 5 yuan, pistols start at 2 dollars.
Leather boots are 1.5 yuan.
If it were in the 1880s, some commodities were cheaper, and even a trained quarter horse would be worth $20.
Shaving a beard for ten cents is definitely not cheap!
Zhang Nan thought maliciously on the side: "It's no wonder that the men in the western movies shave their beards by themselves, and they can't afford to go to the shop."
As for not recognizing it just now...
Who would go while watching TV, pay special attention to what the shaved cup looks like.
