Chapter 460 459. Chickens Fly Dogs Jump (Monthly Pass 151+)
When he was about to enter the house, Du Dayuan handcuffed the small box containing the gems on his wrist again, looking very cautious, he did not take it off when he entered the house.
Back home, Li Du poured the prepared juice and coffee for several people, and then took out the pastels he brought back from Page.
Seeing these porcelains, the three of them didn't bother to drink, and took one each in their hands to look through it.
Hans waited expectantly for their conclusion, but Li Du didn't care, he knew these things were fake.
Sure enough, after the tasting, the three of them got together and discussed in a low voice for a while, Ma Cheng raised his head and said, "Xiao Li, you may be disappointed."
Hans lost his voice: "What's the matter, is there something wrong with these porcelains?"
Ma Cheng sighed and didn't answer directly, but said: "Well, let me tell you two about pastels first."
Li Du nodded and said, "I would like to hear the details."
Ma Cheng said: "The famille rose was first created in the JDZ Imperial Kiln Factory in the late Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and was popular in the inner court of the Qing Palace, so there is a saying of 'Secret Collection of the Qing Palace'."
"The real pastel uses multicolored raw materials, mixed with some glass white, and uses its opacification effect to make the color soft and elegant."
As he said that, he held up a plate for the two of them to see: "Look here, the patterns on this white-glazed porcelain plate include alum red, lake green, ochre, etc. Are the colors a little richer?"
Hans asked hesitantly, "Is there?"
Ma Cheng smiled again: "Okay, let's continue. The color of famille rose is soft and elegant, but its decoration patterns are often rough, the materials are rough, and the surface of the porcelain is peeled off."
"The reason for this is that at the beginning of baking porcelain, the color must be baked in a low-temperature furnace, so that the color material and the glaze are not tightly combined after melting, and this is the characteristic of Kangxi pastel."
"But look at these porcelains, how can there be any peeling phenomenon? The baking is very good, the color material and the glaze are very tightly combined and beautiful, but the beauty is too much!"
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and said: "Do you know why I always use Kangxi pastels to explain? In fact, there was Yongzheng pastels in the later period, and the style has nothing to do with what I said."
Hans shook his head, and Li Du nodded: "There are words made in the year of Kangxi under the plate."
Ma Cheng smiled and said: "Yes, the words on this plate indicate its age, but it happens that from this point, it can also be seen that it is a counterfeit product, and there are its flaws here."
The Qing Dynasty was a period of great achievement in the history of Chinese porcelain making, and its porcelain making level reached an unprecedented peak.
Affected by the hierarchical feudal ruling system and the historical tradition of porcelain making, there is a certain convention in the inscription of official kiln porcelain and folk kiln porcelain in the Qing Dynasty.
Among them, the Kangxi Dynasty lasted for 61 years and had the most inscriptions. However, most of the official kiln inscriptions were "Kangxi Years of the Great Qing Dynasty" six-character two-line or three-line blue and white regular script, and only a small amount of seal script in the late period.
In addition, in the early stage, the chronology of the stems and branches was common, such as the Kangxi Xinhai Zhonghetang system, etc.
Ma Cheng told the knowledge about these antiques, and when Li Du and Hans nodded to express their understanding, he continued.
"Look, what is written on this plate? 'Kangxi Nianzhi', this kind of writing is quite irregular. If you want to write it, you have to write the four characters Kangxi Yuzhi."
"Even if there is an official kiln that dares to write like this, then look again, look at these four characters, what style is it? Blue and white regular script! It can be seen from this that these porcelains were fired in the early Kangxi period."
"However, looking at its handwriting, the fonts of the early Kangxi Dynasty are wide and thick, with thick, straight strokes and obvious pauses. But what about here? These four characters are delicate and elegant, which do not quite match the real history."
"If you continue to look closely, there are more problems. The four dots of the Xi character use straight dots or smooth dots. What about here? Reverse dots! This is not acceptable. The Qing Dynasty was full of literary inquisition. Doing so will be considered treasonous and immoral, and you will be jailed." Food!"
"Look at the character 'Nian' again. Among the authentic products, the first two horizontal lines of the three horizontal lines are shorter, the third horizontal line is longer, and they are close together, and the vertical line is longer. But what about the plate? The three horizontal lines It's too far away from Erheng!"
Du Dayuan pushed the computer to them. On the computer was an auction web page, and there were several group photos of Chinese on it, including the three of them.
Li Du was stunned and said, "What is this?"
Ding Xiaofeng looked up and said with a smile: "Old Du, you made a mistake. This is a press photo we took in Los Angeles a few months ago. Why do you show them this?"
Du Dayuan quickly switched the page, and said with a wry smile: "Just now Phoenix wanted our promotional photos, I randomly found one from the Internet and sent it, but I forgot to switch back."
The new page that appeared was a PPT with many photos of porcelain from the Kangxi period, and a close-up of the inscribed handwriting.
Du Dayuan said: "You can compare these inscriptions, and then look at the inscriptions on these pieces of porcelain, you should be able to see some problems."
Hans couldn't understand, he looked at Li Du, Li Du smiled bitterly: "They are right, these things are fake..."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Ding Xiaofeng, who was closest to the door, went to open the door. As soon as he opened the door, someone suddenly grabbed him and pushed him against the wall, shouting sharply: "Police, don't move!"
Ding Xiaofeng's complexion suddenly turned pale, his legs went limp and he almost slipped along the wall and fell to the ground.
At the same time, Ma Cheng and Du Dayuan's complexion also changed, and they subconsciously stood up.
With a sweep of the small box in Du Dayuan's hand, the coffee cup was swept down on the table, and there was a flutter of chaos!
Several policemen came in, and the policewoman who was arresting Ding Xiaofeng was stunned: "Uh, who are you? Oh, sorry, I arrested the wrong person."
Li Du was startled and angry, and shouted: "Luo Qun, what are you doing?"
The policewoman who did it was naturally Luo Qun, and she was the only one with such a childish temper and such a fondness for making jokes.
Asked by Li Du, she showed an embarrassed expression on her pretty face, and said, "I'm sorry, sorry, I thought you opened the door and wanted to play a joke on you, who are these?"
Li Du hurried up to help Ding Xiaofeng, who was in a state of embarrassment, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ding, I'm really sorry, this is my landlord, and she is also our compatriots, what she did is neither serious nor serious, I'm really sorry!"
Ding Xiaofeng quickly waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I, I, I was just taken aback by her."
Ma Cheng and Du Dayuan supported Ding Xiaofeng from both sides, and said, "It doesn't matter, Xiao Li, Mr. Ding is timid, he must have been frightened."
Luo Qun could understand Mandarin, so she apologized again, and the other police officers were troubled, so they apologized with her.
With a police colleague present, it was not easy for Li Du to shake her face so that she would not get off the stage, so he asked in a low voice, "What are you doing? How do you come back at this point?"
Luo Qun also whispered: "Come back for lunch, we happen to be investigating a case around here, I just want to invite them back for dinner, who knows so many of you are at home."
After talking about it, she paused: "You friends, it seems that something is wrong."
