    "Please!" Zhao Xiangbo really wanted to see what Zhou Xia's ability was, and how dare he make such a boastful statement. If he really had that ability, he would be willing to hand over his treasure to an auction company for auction.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????: No more fake moves!

    Zhou Xia doesn't want to just talk. If he wants to win the respect of others, he must use all his skills. He can use Zhao Xiangbo's contempt now to gain some opportunities for Liu Yuqing and the auction company. If he wants to use this trick again in the future,  Others won't give it a chance.

    In order to ensure the safety of the situation, Zhou Xia also became cautious at this moment and took out the magnifying glass he carried with him. His posture still had some professional meaning.

    Zhao Xiangbo saw his cautious look, and a faint smile appeared on his face. He became more and more certain that Liu Yuqing was informing Zhou Xia about the situation in the study box.

    Liu Yuqing had a worried look on her face, but the deal was already done. She wanted to dissuade him, but it was too late, so she had to wait and see how the situation developed.  She was naturally aware of Zhou Xia's previous appraisal level. His theory was only fairly rich, but he still lacked a lot of experience compared to her, let alone compared with an experienced expert like Zhao Xiangbo.  It would not be easy for her to accurately identify all of the collections here in a short period of time. I don¡¯t know how Zhou Xia will perform.

    While she was worried, there was also a faint expectation in her heart.

    The five treasures Zhao Xiangbo took out this time are all study utensils, that is, writing toys.  Among antique collections, it is considered a relatively small niche, and there are specialties in the art. If you are not specialized in this, it is not easy to make an accurate identification. Zhao Xiangbo dared to make a bet with him, and his confidence came from this.  He has been playing for most of his life, but he still feels like he is just getting started.

    Zhou Xia is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. The first thing he appraised was a yellow-brown pen holder.

    In order to clearly identify the material of the pen holder, he also put his nose close to the pen holder and smelled it carefully.  Soon, he smelled a very faint fragrance, but it penetrated directly into his nose, and it felt like it was emanating from the scent.  He rubbed it carefully with his hand again. The surface of the barrel looked smooth and had a thin layer of patina, but it didn't feel oily in his hand.

    From this, he could tell that this was an agarwood pen holder.

    Agarwood pen holders are not uncommon in literary works. Zhou Xia was lucky enough to see them at previous auctions and knew some tips on identifying agarwood.  Otherwise, just this most basic material issue may make a fool of yourself.

    After identifying the basic materials, Zhou Xia turned his attention to identifying other values ??of the pen holder.

    The outer wall of agarwood uses relief and openwork techniques, and the three friends of Suihan are carved.

    There are two branches of old plum trees, several stems of bamboo, and several pine trees.  The pine trunks and plum branches are both lush and leafy, but the bamboo stems are too slender and thin, so the carver was ingenious and specially carved several butterflies to match.

    In Zhou Xia¡¯s view, this pen holder is not as delicate and delicate as ordinary agarwood carvings, but the beauty lies in the bold design, which makes full use of the characteristics of this section of agarwood and abandons stereotypes.  The whole work is rough and majestic, but also delicate.

    ¡°Moreover, he could clearly feel that the sculptor had appropriately expressed the spiritual connotations contained in pine, bamboo, plum, butterfly and other objects, which had certain artistic value.

    Most of the value of agarwood carvings lies in the materials and carving skills. Of course, if it is carved by a famous artist and has historical significance, the value will be higher.

    It is a pity that this pen holder does not have an inscription. It is impossible to judge from the inscription who the engraver is and what era it belongs to. It is unrealistic to sell it for a particularly high price.

    ??For collectors, especially this type of collection that has not been imprinted, it is even more difficult to identify.  Because if you want to accurately determine the age of the pen holder, you must have a clear understanding of the characteristics of agarwood carvings in various eras, and then judge the age of the creation of the pen holder based on the actual performance.  For collectors who are new to the industry, this requirement is quite high. Without enough experience and not enough authentic works, it is extremely difficult to make a correct judgment.

    Zhou Xia also belongs to this type of armchair strategist. Based on the results of his own observation and speculation, the judgment he made in his heart is from the mid-Qing Dynasty.

    But he asked the system to help, and the result of the system's judgment was, "This item was created in 1676 AD."

    This made Zhou Xia feel quite ashamed. Without this archaeological identification system, he would have identified the first treasure incorrectly.  When the early Qing Dynasty is identified as the mid-Qing Dynasty, the gap is still quite large, lasting hundreds of years.  Although the identification error will not have a big impact on the value of the entire pen holder, in the eyes of experts, it means that you are not good enough.

    Although this pen holder is not a masterpiece by a famous artist, its carving techniques are quite good and it has a high collection value  Zhou Xia estimates that the market price is about the same as his jade paperweight, which is between 20,000 and 30,000.

    Zhou Xia also felt secretly in her heart, "Mr. Zhao's grasp of the market is quite accurate. It was still a lot of luck to grab the jade paperweight from him in the morning."

    Seeing him put down the pen holder lightly, Zhao Xiangbo and Liu Yuqing, who had been waiting nearby, quickly cast their attention. Zhao Xiangbo also asked him with a smile, "Xiao Zhou, what do you think of this pen holder? Is it acceptable?"  Your eyes?"

    week  It can highlight its unique value and make it an interesting study utensil.¡±

    "Haha, you really have some skills!" Zhao Xiangbo nodded and did not begrudge his praise. He did not want Zhou Xia to fail at the first level so quickly. For him, the more challenges, the better.

    Liu Yuqing was a little surprised. She took a rough look at it, but she only recognized that it was an agarwood carving. The carving was pretty good, but she couldn't tell the specific age.  Zhou Xia said it straight away, and was recognized by Zhao Xiangbo.

    After Zhou Xia put down the pen holder, she picked it up and looked at it carefully to see where they judged it. This was the style of the early Qing Dynasty.  Since she made an appointment with Zhao Xiangbo not to remind him verbally, she must abide by the agreement.  This moment is also a very rare opportunity for her to enrich herself and gain experience.

    Zhou Xia didn¡¯t talk nonsense and went on to appraise the next collection.

    This is a very beautiful piece of sky-blue porcelain with a unique shape. It is in the shape of an exquisite five consecutive mountains and is only about ten centimeters long.  Newbies to porcelain may not even know what this is.  But Zhou Xia understood that this was a pen mountain.  A pen mount is also called a pen holder, pen grid, pen holder, etc. It is a small object used to hold pens among stationery supplies.

    Zhao Xiangbo likes literary toys the most, and this collection is small and practical.  You can place the pen on the table to show its practical side; you can also hold it in your hand and play with it carefully.

    Zhou Xia took a few glances, and he felt that this brush was quite beautiful, and the entire body was covered with furnace jun glaze.

    Lujun glaze is a low-temperature kiln-varying glaze. Various unpredictable kiln-varying glazes are fired with different kiln atmospheres. It is a type of imitation Jun glaze created by the Jingdezhen Royal Kiln Factory during the Yongzheng Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty. It was popular during the Qianlong period.  Therefore, blue, green and moon white glazes are the main ones. The glaze flow is small, blue glaze dots are more common, and the shape is richer.

    And the bottom mark of this pen mountain is also "Made in the Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty".

    Zhou Xia estimated in her heart that if it was really from the Qianlong period, it would be worth a lot of money.  Although the price of relatively niche literary toys like this is not particularly high, it is still more than enough to cost 40,000 to 50,000 yuan.  This is still nearly double the price of the jade paperweight of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. With Zhao Xiangbo's shrewdness, it is absolutely impossible to make such a mistake and do something at a loss.

    That means that this piece of furnace jun glaze should be an imitation made after the Qianlong period. It is most likely to be from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Especially during the Republic of China, the quality of various antique works is quite high, and there are many auctions on the market.  The porcelain on the wall is all fake and real.

    Zhou Xia himself could only make a rough judgment. He guessed that it was most likely an imitation from the Republic of China period.

    The identification he asked the system to make was similar, "This item was created in 1920 AD."

    As for value, the system will never make a judgment unless it is a particularly precious cultural relic that will remind him.  Other times, Zhou Xia needs to judge its value and price by himself.

    Zhou Xia pretended to appreciate it carefully for a while, and then praised, "This piece of porcelain has a simple shape, fresh and elegant glaze color, sky blue and lavender complement each other, and has an extraordinary artistic effect."

    Zhao Xiangbo asked him with a smile, "Then you choose this Qianlong pen mountain to exchange for the jade paperweight?"

    "Mr. Zhao is really good at tempting people!" Zhou Xia thought to himself, and immediately replied, "Mr. Zhao, I didn't say this was the Lujun Glaze Brush Mountain from the Qianlong period"

    "Xiao Zhou, when do you think this mountain was created?" Zhao Xiangbo's expression was as usual, still looking at him with a smile, and there was no sign of any fluctuation in his mood.

    Zhou Xia was very modest at the moment, "If I'm not mistaken, this Wulianshan-shaped pen mountain should be a high imitation from the Republic of China. It is indeed quite beautiful, almost to the point of being fake. I believe Mr. Zhao has already noticed it.  , so I don¡¯t need to play tricks on this class.¡±

    Zhao Xiangbo just asked him, "Are you sure?"

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "After Mr. Zhao asked this, I am now sure and certain that this pen mountain is from the Republic of China period."Excellent product!  "

    "Haha, boy, you made a mistake in your appraisal. This mountain is really from the Qianlong period!" Zhao Xiangbo laughed loudly.

    Zhou Xia's expression remained unchanged, and she still laughed and said, "If Mr. Zhao insists on thinking this way, then I can only say that Mr. Zhao is the one who caught your eye. This pen is really a high imitation of the Republic of China."

    Zhao Xiangbo couldn't scare him, so he smiled even happier, "It's really interesting, you kid, I can't fool you even like this!"

    Liu Yuqing next to her was dazzled by this series of changes.
