Chapter 1017 Tianzi Jar

Han Rongguang said, "Brother, you are too modest. There will definitely be no problem with what you think of. What I admire most is that this kind of vision is not something that ordinary people can achieve!"

Han Rongguang admired Han Rongyao very much. A piece of ancient porcelain worth only a thousand yuan was exchanged for an immeasurable amount of ancient porcelain, which was "turned into treasure". However, he was even more interested in Han Rongyao's promise, so he sang to Han Rongyao together, which was planning to plot against Han Peacock.

Han Peacock naturally knew that these two guys would not be so easy to pass, so he shook his head and said, "I am not humble. To be honest, I have only learned very limitedly, and I don't see much of this kind of fine porcelain. I need a lot of appraisal experience to identify such porcelain, so many masters are needed to really not misjudgment!"

That being said, but in fact, Han Peacock is more accurate than anyone else in determining the age of this porcelain and has unshakable authority. From the perspective of the characteristics of the porcelain, Han Peacock knows that it is the authentic product.

But now some high-quality imitations are almost the same as genuine products, which are enough to distort the real ones. So even the most powerful experts may have a moment of being shocked. So Han Peacock said this, and Han Rongyao and Han Rongguang had no reason to refute them at all.

"That's true." Han Rongyao nodded and said, "Brother, don't you know many experts? Just look for them?" Han Rongguang said.

Han Peacock smiled and said, "Of course this is OK, but it takes time."

"How much time will it take?" Han Rongyao asked anxiously.

Although the age of the porcelain he had was undoubtedly confused for him, it was difficult for him to judge the value of the porcelain, and Han Peacock was very knowledgeable and could naturally set a price for it.

Han Peacock said: "It should take a few days! I will notify you after the identification."

"Yes." Han Rongyao said.

After chatting for a while, Han Peacock ignored Han Rongyao and Han Rongguang. The two brothers felt bored and a little disappointed, so they went to the other side and went to chat with others.

Seeing them leaving, Han Peacock smiled secretly for a while and couldn't help but start working again. Although the porcelain surface was completely removed, there was also a thin layer of red paint on the inside, so it naturally had to be removed, otherwise it would affect the viewing.

I was busy until after nine o'clock in the evening to finally get it done, and the whole piece of porcelain returned to its true colors. It was dazzling and colorful.

"The Doucai Can in Chenghua, Ming Dynasty, can be regarded as an outstanding representative of Chenghua official kilns. The total number of similar artifacts is only a dozen, and most of them are collected by the world's top museums, such as the Palace Museum in Beijing, the National Museum, the Magic City Museum, the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, the United States.

Look at the simple and gorgeous pattern on the belly of this pot. It seems simple, but it actually has endless meanings. Because this kind of porcelain has records in the past, it has sold at a high price of nearly 30 million yuan, and that was a relatively long time ago. If it is sent to an international auction company, it will have to be sold at least hundreds of millions. If the competition is fierce, it is possible to sell at a sky-high price!!"

Seeing Han Peacock giggling at the porcelain, Chen Qing smiled and said, "Have you fooled those two stupid brothers?"

Han Peacock was stunned and looked up at Chen Qing, as well as Gu Lie and Yuan Peng beside him. The others had already dispersed at this time, some were chatting while others had already gone home.

Han Peacock said: "It's okay not to fool them, otherwise these two guys will cause me trouble again if they have money."

"What exactly is this? I have heard that the chicken jar cup during the Chenghua period is a national treasure. How is this big jar compared to the chicken jar cup?" Gu Lie used to be with Han Peacock in the Antique Street, so he still knows something about some famous antiques.

"What is a chicken jar cup?" Yuan Peng didn't know much about this, so he asked.

Han Peacock smiled and said, "Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup is one of the Doucai Cups in Chenghua Ming Dynasty. It has a drinking utensil, a shallow belly, and a foot lying. Because the cup body is depicted with Doucai, the chicken pecks and feeds her chicks early, and the posture is lifelike, supplemented by peonies, orchids, and pillars and stone patterns, hence the name."

After Gu Lie looked at Yuan Peng with contempt, he said: "The Chenghua Doucai Chicken Grooster Cup was the royal wine glass of Emperor Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty. When it was cooked, due to the high requirements of the imperial family, the yield rate was not high. The best quality was enshrined in the palace, while the inferior quality was destroyed, so the number of people spread to the public was very small.

The Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup is less than a palm-sized. It was fired in the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty. It has been more than 600 years ago. The Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, which is now in the world, is recognized as the authentic and fully preserved. There are only 10, 4 of which are in the hands of private collectors, and the rest are collected by museums. Public museums in China are still vacant at present."

"So the price of the chicken jar cup is very high?" Yuan Peng ignored Gu Lie and instead told Han Peacock.

Han Peacock said: "The chicken jar cup is extremely smooth, glutinous and gentle, and it cannot be described in words. The craftsmanship of this chicken jar cup is absolutely impossible to make now. At that time, it had reached the top level and people in later generations could not break through, so the price was very high.

The reason why it is so expensive is entirely because during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, the craftsmen of the official kiln used blue and white materials to draw the outlines on the blanks. After drawing, they attached white glaze. They entered the kiln and fired them into high-temperature porcelain at 1200c. Then they filled the blanks of the blue and white outlines with red, green, yellow, purple and other colors, and then entered the low-temperature kiln to make the second firing. The blue and white underglaze and the overglaze color competed for beauty, and were named "Doucai".

Due to its difficulty in craftsmanship, there was a document that the chicken jar cup was worth 100,000 yuan during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. On April 8 this year, a Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup was sold for HK$281.24 million. Now there are about 15 chicken jar cups in the world, and only 3 are circulating on the market. The others are collected by major museums."

"280 million, these people are crazy?" Yuan Peng was shocked.

Han Peacock chuckled: "In addition to the Ming Chenghua chicken jar cup, the most famous one in the Chenghua period was the Doucai Tianzi Can. People have always known that Ming Chenghua porcelain is very precious, and Ming Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Can is even more of the treasures.

There are 12 Doucai Tianzi Cans in the world recognized by the Ming Chenghua. They are collected in the Capital Palace Museum (3), the Palace Museum in Taipei (4), the Qing, Island Museum (1), the National Museum in Tokyo, Japan (1), the British Museum in the UK (1), the Davis Foundation in the UK (1) and the Harvard Art Museum in the US (1).

There is still half, which is a Mingchenghua Doucai Feixiang Pattern Tianzi Can, which was auctioned by Sosby Auction in the UK in 2001, cut off part of the can because of the broken can. This Tianzi Can was finally acquired by the famous British antique dealer Eskenazi."

"You're not saying that this piece of porcelain is worth hundreds of millions, right?" Chen Qing and the others asked almost in unison.

Han Peacock just smiled and did not answer. The Ming Chenghua Doucai Tianzi can in his hand is 23.3cm tall, 13.7cm in diameter, and 14.2cm in foot diameter. The can has a short straight neck, plump shoulders, gradually converge below the shoulders, and the ring foot. The lid has a flat top and no button. The outside of the can is equipped with Doucai pattern: the shoulders and close feet are decorated with banana leaf pattern. The abdomen is decorated with sea water double dragon patterns, and the top of the lid is decorated with sea water dragon patterns.

The body of this instrument is delicate and white, with bright and smooth glaze, red, green and yellow colors, and the harmony is bright. The color and pattern of the jar lid and the jar body are different. The jar is straight, short neck, and plump shoulders. The shoulders are gradually closed below, and the ring foot is ringed.

The whole body is decorated with four sea beasts and sea water cliffs on the abdomen, with cloud patterns on the shoulders and near the bottom, with banana leaf patterns on the top. The outsole is marked with blue and white regular style "Tian" style.

The carcass of this jar are light and transparent, and the patterns on the outer wall can be seen from the inner wall. The decoration is mainly red and blue and white, and yellow and green colors are supplemented, making it bright and pleasing to the eye.

The sea water surging, the waves splash, and the sea beast is composed of elephant heads and lions, and rises into the air. It is extremely ferocious, reflecting the superb painting techniques of porcelain craftsmen in the Jingdezhen Imperial Vessel Factory in the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty.

This jar is commonly known as "Tian" because of the character "Tian" written on the outer base. It is a famous product in Chenghua Doucai porcelain. This type of Chenghua Doucai Tianzi can has always been treasured in the palace. It was called "Chengyao Wucai Can" or "Chengyao Tianzi Can" in the palace archives during the Yongzheng and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty.

The Ming Chenghua Doucai Grape Pattern Sky Character Can is the most important achievement of Chenghua porcelain, and it is the success of Doucai firing. Chenghua Doucai porcelain has a thin body and a light body, with a bright glaze, bright colors, and a clear and elegant picture. The representative works include the chicken jar cup, Chenghua Doucai Three Qiu Pattern Bowl, Gaoshi Cup, Grape Cup, Infant Drama Cup, Grape Painting Cup, Grape Pattern Sky Character Can, etc., which are all superb.

The quality of the official kiln products in Chenghua was extremely particular. The style of Doucai porcelain changed in Chenghua. The color of the Doucai porcelain changed from bright to light and elegant. The purple color was as numerous as the black purple of ripe grapes or the light purple of eggplant skin. The special one was the purple color, the color was like hematite, and the surface was dry and dull, which could be used as a special basis for identifying Chenghua Doucai.

The complete device of the Doucai Tianzi Can in Mingchenghua is rare, so the price is very high, while the price of the residual device is much lower, but it is less than one-tenth of the complete device.

However, as long as it is a complete Chenghua Tianzi can, its value will definitely exceed 100 million yuan. The official kiln jars of Chenghua Nian Tianzi style in the Ming Dynasty were mainly found in Chenghua Doucai jars. This type of jar can be divided into two types: long round belly and short round belly.

The outer bottom is covered with white glaze, and the character "Tian" is written in the center of the center. The pattern is without borders on the outside. The patterns are decorated with melon and field dragons, vanilla dragons, sea water dragons, sea horses, walruses, tangled lotus, and tangled lotus to support the eight auspiciousness.

There are two types of lids, one is flat top without buttons, and the other is bulging in an umbrella shape. The strokes of the character "Tian" are balanced. The strokes of the character "Tian" are natural and powerful. The official kiln jars of the character "Tian" in Chenghua Nian Tian style of the Ming Dynasty are mainly found on the Doocai jars in Chenghua.

This type of jar can be divided into two types: long round belly and short round belly. The outer bottom is covered with white glaze, and the center is written in the word "Tian" in regular script. The pattern has no borders on the outside.

There are two types of covers, one is flat top without buttons, and the other is bulging in an umbrella shape. The strokes of the character "Tian" are balanced. The starting strokes and the holding strokes are naturally powerful. The character "Tian" is.

"Mi rice base" is also an important feature of Chenghua utensils: it is burned on the utensils, and the iron contained in the sandy soil is folded out on the ring foot attached to the exposed tire. It is also a basis for Chenghua utensils and identification centers.

After careful observation, Han Peacock has determined that this is a very well-preserved Mingchenghua Doucai Tianzi Can. Such a large jar is definitely more valuable than a chicken jar cup. Therefore, it is not difficult to get a price of hundreds of millions of dollars in Mingchenghua Doucai Tianzi Can. Even if it exceeds the sky-high chicken jar cup.

It is because the price of this Ming Chenghua Doucai Tianzi can is too high that Han Peacock fools Han Rongyao and Han Rongguang, but such a fool cannot be fooled for long.

As long as these two guys know that this is a treasured Mingchenghua Doucai Tianzi Can, they will naturally know the price. Therefore, Han Peacock still needs to think of a way to see the large amount of money they may have obtained and not give them any chance to spend money.

Knowing that this porcelain is very valuable, Chen Qing and the others didn't say much, but Gu Lie couldn't help but say, "The ranch on Honor recently needs a lot of money. Should we support it?"

Han Peacock smiled and said, "When I have time, I will go to his side to take a look. Then, a financial station will be sent to save Han Rongyao and will be squandered by his studies."

"You big brother is really hard to do." Chen Qing said with a smile.

Han Peacock said: "There is no way. These two guys don't have enough self-control. If you don't look at this, you may become a playboy."

"Glory has been much more obedient recently." Gu Lie said with a chuckle.

Speaking of this, Han Peacock also laughed: "I haven't had time to ask, why didn't Du Wei come today?"

As the organizer, Chen Qing naturally knew Du Wei's whereabouts, so he smiled and said, "I heard that Han Rongguang was deliberately making trouble in the company, so she couldn't come tonight."

Han Peacock sighed and said, "Du Wei is still a little merciful."

Chen Qing smiled and said, "What are you going to let her do? Rongguang is your brother after all, how can she deal with it? Really, she is an outsider. If you really use your skills, maybe you, the big brother, will feel distressed, so it's not easy for her."

Han Peacock nodded and said, "Since recently, Han Rongguang has grown up very quickly, otherwise he would have been obeyed by Du Wei long ago."

"What are you planning?" Chen Qing said.

Han Peacock said helplessly: "This thing depends on fate. Anyway, I see Du Wei as a very good girl. Now I have given Han Rongguang the chance. If he doesn't understand, let Du Wei completely replace Han Rongguang and let her be a professional manager."

"So you are looking for your sister-in-law, but is it really good to do this?" Gu Lie said with a wicked smile.

Han Peacock gave him a blank look and said, "You kid are just afraid that the world will not be in chaos. Didn't I say that? It depends on fate. I have already gotten together. If there is no fate, I can still make a spouse of the mandarin couple?"

"Don't say it, you're really accurate in looking at people. Du Wei is really amazing. I heard that their company has developed very quickly recently." Yuan Peng said with a smile.

Han Peacock nodded and said, "As long as the game company is well operated, the money will be the same as it was picked up for free."

"So you also like playing games?" Chen Qing told Han Peacock. (To be continued...)
