- Chapter 137 Xuanhuang Glaze
Of course, even if you give up this thing, there are still some skills. . .
Xu Yaohui naturally would not say that they were weak and had insufficient funds, so they chose to give up the porcelain.
What he said to Huang Guodong was that everyone felt that the quality of this thing was not complete enough, so what else could he say? Not only the young man, but also he also pursued perfection. I asked Huang Guodong if there were any intact treasures that he could show them. It was clear that he wanted to use provocation.
Huang Guodong understood their thoughts and secretly complained that Xu Yaohui was just pretending to be big. He does have some good things in his hands, but he is afraid that he does not have enough financial strength to eat them. After thinking about it, Huang Guodong still felt that it was necessary to open his eyes. He asked Xu Yaohui to come and see something because he wanted to sell the goods in exchange for some funds.
At the moment, he asked a few people to wait while he took it out to show them.
Xu Liuxin chuckled, "Dad used this provocation method well."
Xu Yaohui could only smile bitterly, "I'm afraid that if Lao Huang really comes up with something good, but we still can't afford it, it would be embarrassing."
Xu Liuxin spat out her sweet tongue, "Why do I think this possibility is so high! Looking at his attitude, what he brings out this time will definitely be better than the Yongzheng foreign-colored porcelain."
Zhou Xia smiled and said, "No matter what, as long as you can see good things, it's okay to save face, but you can't use it as food."
"That's what I say!" Xu Yaohui said, "But there are a few people who can really make things worse. It's not just about worrying about this and that. If you don't have the strength to collect, that's how miserable you are. You can't afford to buy good things when you see them. , is the greatest torture.¡±
Even Xu Yaohui had such a sigh, and Zhou Xia also felt that this was true. He couldn't always miss something. Many times, he had to rely on his strength and let money speak for himself.
While several people were thinking about it, Huang Guodong quickly took out a box from the back hall.
Zhou Xia also noticed that his box was different from the one just now. Although this box was not made of fine precious wood, it was somewhat special, with a black border style.
It feels like the Japanese style.
This wooden box is not too big. From this, we can also judge that the things inside are not bigger than the Yongzheng foreign-colored porcelain just now.
The look on Huang Guodong's face was very proud. He had just taken out the box and before opening it, he said to them, "If it weren't for your face, Lao Xu, I would definitely not take out such a valuable thing. "
Xu Yaohui also recognized the style of the box and asked him, "Look at this box, it looks like the style from Japan. Could it be that this treasure of yours was bought from Japan."
Huang Guodong said with a smile, "Old Xu really has a good eye. This is what I bought from Japan at a huge price more than ten years ago. Even the box is original!"
"Then I can't wait to see what happens." Xu Yaohui is really looking forward to it. He also knows that Huang Guodong's appraisal level is not lower than his. As for what he said about spending a lot of money, Xu Yaohui wouldn't believe it all. This belongs to the category of stories, so it's better to take it easy.
The key is to see how things are.
Huang Guodong carefully opened the box and took out the things.
Xu Yaohui and Zhou Xia suddenly took a breath of air after seeing the true appearance of the thing.
This color.
But it is very rare.
? Yellow glaze.
Anyone who understands the history of China¡¯s feudal society should know what yellow represents.
That is the color of the dragon robe, the royal color.
Yellow glaze is also the exclusive color of the royal family.
Volume 161 of "Records of Ming Yingzong" records that in the 11th year of Zhengtong (AD 1446), an order was issued: "It is forbidden to privately manufacture yellow, purple, red, green, cyan, blue and white blue and white porcelain in Raozhou Prefecture, Jiangxi The first offender was Ling Chi. He will be executed with money from his family, and Ding Nan will be sent to the army as a border guard. Anyone who knows but fails to report will be punished with imprisonment."
Yellow glazed utensils are among the first prohibited items.
This exclusive status cannot be offended, and private firing is naturally not allowed among the people. This strict prohibition demonstrates the nobility and rarity of yellow glaze vessels.
When Huang Guodong turned the porcelain over and let them see the signature underneath, Zhou Xia and the others were even more stunned.
"Double lines of six characters, "Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty."
It¡¯s still Xuande¡¯s yellow glaze.
Xuande yellow glaze is so precious that it can be said to be the most precious thing among yellow glaze porcelain.
After being amazed, ZhouXia and the others were wondering if this thing was fake.
How could it be possible to live in Japan?
It was not just Zhou Xia who had such suspicions. Xu Yaohui and Xu Liuxin also felt very strange after they came to their senses.
Of course, if they want to tell a story, with their brainstorming ability, they can come up with a twists and turns of the national treasure adventure without Huang Guodong having to tell it too much.
However, these are irrelevant, the key depends on how things are.
Because such a thing was too precious, Xu Yaohui didn't dare to ask for it, so he asked Zhou Xia to go up first. He himself needs to calm down before speaking.
Zhou Xia did his best to do the appraisal first.
In this way, Huang Guodong felt a little strange. Could it be that Zhou Xia's appraisal skills are better than Xu Yaohui's?
Anyway, he didn¡¯t see this before.
This did not prevent him from teasing Xu Yaohui, "Old Xu, look, this is a good thing! I can guarantee that this is definitely an authentic piece from Xuande, and it is perfectly preserved with basically no defects."
Xu Yaohui replied, "Old Huang, you suddenly took out such a thing, but it shocked me! I'm still a little dizzy now. Let me wake up and do the appraisal again. ¡±
"Okay, don't be in a hurry, just take your time and take a look. Real gold is not afraid of fire. This piece of porcelain of mine can also stand the test." Huang Guodong laughed. He was quite satisfied with the effect, and he knew it very well. , yellow glazed porcelain like this is indeed quite rare and rare.
Seeing that Zhou Xia was fully immersed in the appraisal, Xu Liuxin and Xu Yaohui did not disturb him, and they discussed in low voices.
Although Xu Liuxin is young, she has received a lot of education. Xu Yaohui and the others have also taught her about yellow glaze.
Xu Yaohui comes from a family of antiques, and he is very familiar with the history of yellow glaze.
The color-glazed porcelain in ancient my country leaves people with endless charm with its charming and changeable colors and rich symbolic meanings. The yellow-glazed porcelain is the most aristocratic among them. The real yellow-glazed porcelain was created and fired during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. In recent years, specimens of Hongwu yellow-glazed dishes and bowls with dark engraved cloud and dragon patterns have been unearthed from the Jingdezhen kiln site and the Ming Forbidden City site in Nanjing. The yellow glaze, which uses an appropriate amount of iron as a colorant, is fired twice with an oxidizing flame in a kiln at about 850 degrees. The color is the same as the yellow glaze building components of the same period. Because the glaze is applied on the body, it feels slightly rough. , not as delicate and round as the delicate yellow glaze of later generations. During the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial Ware Factory inherited Hongwu's technology and worked hard to improve it. The focus was on improving the texture of the glaze, and the glaze was changed to a sweet white glaze. The purity of the sweet white glaze contrasted with the beauty of the yellow glaze, thus earning the title of "Xuan Huang" The advent of the famous product was the beginning of Hongzhi's delicate yellow glaze. Its color is clear and uniform, its transparency is high, and its glass texture is strong. It is deeply treasured by the imperial family. Moreover, because the technology was new at that time and was not yet mature, the number of products produced was not large, and it is even rarer to this day.
After the Xuande yellow glaze wares were fired, they were arbitrarily controlled by the imperial government and were only used by the palace. The control was extremely strict, reflecting the supreme imperial power and strict hierarchy.
Precisely because he knew this, Xu Yaohui knew how rare this piece of porcelain would be if it were genuine.
At the same time, Xu Yaohui was also silently recalling several pieces of Xuanhuang glaze that had appeared in documented documents.
There are about 2,000 pieces of Xuande porcelain in the collection of the National Palace Museum in Taipei, but only two of them have single-color yellow glaze. This shows how precious the Xuan yellow glaze is.
Zhou Xia didn't care about this. He just watched how the porcelain performed.
This is a golden bell bowl.
It has a rounded mouth, round belly, and looks like a golden bell, hence its name.
This golden bell bowl is covered with yellow glaze both inside and outside, which matches the name of the golden bell bowl perfectly.
Needless to say, the shape of this golden bell bowl is dignified and elegant, and its simplicity reveals handsome beauty.
The golden bell bowl is not particularly common among ancient porcelains, which is why it is relatively precious.
The color of yellow glaze is quite bright, similar to amber. It is moist and delicate. It has an indescribable noble temperament in its quaint and quiet style.
The bottom of the golden bell bowl is covered with white glaze, and the six-character "Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty" in regular script is written in a double circle in the center.
The character is elegant, the brushwork is fresh, the style is dignified and imbued with childishness, all of which are in line with the simple and honest style of regular script in the Jin and Tang dynasties.
"Anyway, according to Zhou Xia's eyesight, this porcelain should definitely belong to Xuande.
Of course, this Xuande golden bell bowl is not?is truly flawless.
If you want to find faults, you can.
For example, the glaze color of this yellow glaze is not completely uniform. Even with the naked eye, if you observe carefully, you can still see that the glaze color in some places is darker than the next place.
Moreover, the entire bottom part of the golden bell bowl is still somewhat worn.
Of course, this is understandable.
It is precisely because of these small problems that it can be proved that this porcelain has experienced hundreds of years of vicissitudes.
If you don¡¯t look at these, just by looking at the bright yellow color, no one can quite imagine that such a piece of porcelain is nearly six hundred years old and is still as bright and dazzling as new.
In the end, although Zhou Xia was certain that this should be the authentic product from the Xuande period. But he still used his big weapon and let the system help with the identification.
The results of the system identification will come out immediately, "This item was created in 1430 AD."
It was during the Xuande period that the performance of this Xuan gold bell bowl made Zhou Xia feel a little gratified and a little sad.
What is gratifying is that this precious porcelain, although it was once exiled overseas, finally returned to China.
What¡¯s sad is that such porcelain is worth a lot of money, and the price will certainly not be that low.
Zhou Xia found it even more strange that the system did not judge such a piece of porcelain as a precious cultural relic, which was a bit strange.
But Zhou Xia didn¡¯t go into details. Anyway, he should try his best to collect the valuable cultural relics recognized by the system. If he had the ability, he should also try his best to collect the good things that were not recognized by the system.
After his appraisal came to an end, he was still reluctant to put down the porcelain. Because this type of device is not too big, it is most suitable to hold it in your hand and play with it.
Xu Yaohui was the second to do the appraisal. He had just discussed it with Xu Liuxin for a while and felt that if this was genuine, he could consider getting it.
Not to mention the beautiful color of this porcelain, because it is rare and rare, it is quite valuable. If you keep it in your hands for a period of time, it still has considerable potential for appreciation.
At the very least, compared to the Yongzheng Yangcai porcelain just now, the potential is much greater.
Although both are very rare, it is obvious that the authentic Xuande official kiln like this, with such a beautiful shape and basically complete appearance, is much more lovable. Not to mention, the Yongzheng porcelain just now still has some defects.
Seeing that Zhou Xia had completed the appraisal, Xu Liuxin asked him about the appraisal results.
Zhou Xia also told the results of his appraisal. He thought this thing was correct.
Xu Liuxin asked if they wanted to buy it, and Zhou Xia said it would depend on the price. If Huang Guodong's asking price was too high and they couldn't afford it, they would be in trouble.
Xu Liuxin said that the main thing is to see whether it has the potential for appreciation. Once you miss such a piece of porcelain, it will be difficult to see it again.
But if you really want to collect it, given the strength of their two families, to be honest, it¡¯s still quite daunting.
Zhou Xia nodded. At this time, he knew more clearly that he had no strength and wanted to collect. It was really a torture. Seeing that good things cannot be bought, for people who like to collect, this feeling is really Extremely uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Huang Guodong was very relaxed and at ease at this moment. He doesn't have to worry if he has the genuine product in hand.
Zhou Xia was also guessing how much he spent when he got it back from Japan.
Not to mention Zhou Xia's secret thoughts, after careful appraisal, Xu Yaohui took out the appraisal artifact flashlight and magnifying glass to conduct the most detailed appraisal of this golden bell bowl. If this thing is still defective or damaged, He really wanted to curse.
Fortunately, as Huang Guodong said, there is nothing particularly wrong with this golden bell bowl. Of course, it has been passed down for six hundred years without any glitches, which is completely impossible.
After Xu Yaohui finished the appraisal, he also asked Xu Liuxin to get it, and told her to be careful. If this thing was broken, it would be a trivial matter to pay compensation. Once it is damaged and cannot be restored, it will really become a criminal in history.
Xu Yaohui naturally had to discuss it with Zhou Xia first.
He himself believed it was true. When he asked Zhou Xia, Zhou Xia also said he believed it was true.
Then the two looked at each other, and the meaning was very obvious. Things like this are definitely rare species, and their collection value must be great. It just depends on whether the two of them are willing to bid!
Xu Yaohui means, "If possible, I think it would be better if we try to take it down, something like this, you may never have the chance to meet again. In the future, it will be fine whether you collect it yourself or pass it on to others. "
Zhou Xia nodded in agreement, "It's just that the price of such an item will definitely not be low. Otherwise, Uncle Xu will ask the price first. If it does not exceed nine million, we can work together to get it. If it is higher, I will But there¡¯s nothing we can do. We have to keep some funds aside.¡±
Xu Yaohui knew what he meant by the nine million. He had just taken five million and spent nearly four hundred thousand. There was not much money left in his hand. If he had to pay off his debts, he would have nothing to do in the future. Immediately, Xu Yaohui said, "Zhou Xia, you are very courageous. I mean the same thing. It depends on what Lao Huang means. I will go and talk to him."
Zhou Xia knew that Xu Yaohui was very sophisticated. At this time, he did not join in the fun, but went to appreciate this rare yellow glazed porcelain with Xu Liuxin again. Even if you can't take it off, it should be engraved in your mind, so that this trip will not be in vain.
Xu Yaohui also went to talk to Huang Guodong and asked him if he really wanted to sell the porcelain.
Huang Guodong said it depends on Xu Yaohui's sincerity. Both of them can say polite words.
Xu Yaohui understands that he is an antique dealer! There is nothing that cannot be sold, it just depends on whether the price is high or not.
Xu Yaohui asked him to give a price first, and Huang Guodong was not polite and directly quoted a price of 10 million.
Xu Yaohui was overjoyed, but his expression remained calm. He felt that this price was relatively close to their psychological price. Of course, the battle-hardened Xu Yaohui will definitely not fail to make a counteroffer.
He counted out all the minor flaws in the golden bell bowl one by one to lower the price.
Not to be outdone, Huang Guodong made a big fuss about the rarity of this piece of porcelain. His reason is also quite sufficient. During the Xuande Dynasty for more than ten years, there were not many Xuanhuang glazed porcelains that have been handed down, and especially those with complete appearance like this, they are even rarer.
These days, everyone knows that rare things are more valuable, and rare and cherished porcelain can be sold at a high price. The appearance of porcelain generally appears in the market more often, even if it is Chenghua Doucai, it may not be sought after by others.
?????????????????? In fact, both parties know quite well in their hearts, it is just an excuse for bargaining. This private transaction is still cheaper than the auction, and it basically depends on the psychological expectations of the buyer and the seller.
Xu Yaohui also argued with reason. Both parties were experienced and after a fierce bargaining. Finally, the two parties reached a deal at a price of seven million.
This is not a small amount, especially today when the market is shrinking.
Huang Guodong is still a little worried about whether Xu Yaohui can get the cash. After all, the news that he and Zhou Xia just made a piece of Chenghua blue and white porcelain in the morning has not spread yet. At this moment, Xu Yaohui and the others had no intention of making any big publicity. Liu Yuqing and Tiandi Auction Company were busy with the autumn auction, and they would not distract everyone's attention by promoting the spring auction.
Zhou Xia still admires Xu Yaohui's bargaining skills. If he were asked to do it, he would definitely not be able to get it for 7 million. His budget was 9 million. After this, Xu Yaohui could be considered as saving money for him. One million. He was also secretly glad that he had not wiped out all his wealth. There was still a lot to be done next.
