The dragon body, dragon legs and other parts above the golden wire wings are made of traditional filament pinching, wire-building and wire-coded processes. Each scale is made of silk threads made of gold wire twisted, and then welded to form. ≤3≤Jiangge≤Xiao≤Say,

Because the craftsmen master the heat just right when welding, such complex patterns and decorations do not reveal any trace of the weld.

Such a wonderful skill is indeed breathtaking.

And the only one that is comparable to it is the black winged crown worn on Emperor Jianwen's head.

When this crown was unearthed, it was worn on the head of Emperor Jianwen. It was made of fine bamboo silk and made of hexagonal silk-shaped patterns. It was painted with black lacquer and lined with red plain silk. It was then applied with double black gauze.

Two dragons are embedded in front of the mountain behind the crown, and two round winged gold corners are inserted in the back of the crown. There are gold flat cylindrical sockets under the corners, and there are reliefs of the dragon on it.

Although this crown is made of fine bamboo silk and is made of black lacquer, the dragon body is made of gold silk, and is embedded with cat's eye stone, two yellow gemstones, five red sapphires, two emeralds, five pearls, and the dragon's head is also entrusted with the words "Wan" and "Shou", which is exquisite and luxurious.

The other equally exquisite crown is the phoenix crown worn by Queen Ma. The phoenix crown is the ritual crown worn by the queen when she received a book, visited the temple, and was used during court meetings. Its shape is inherited from the Song Dynasty and developed and improved, so it shows the beauty of elegance and luxury.

There are four phoenix crowns unearthed here, namely the "twelve dragons, nine phoenix crowns, nine dragons, nine phoenix crowns", six dragons, three phoenix crowns" and three dragons, two phoenix crowns.

The four-top phoenix crowns are roughly the same, except that the number of dragons and phoenixes decorated is different.

They are stunningly shaped, beautifully made, and decorated with a large amount of pearls and gemstones.

Because the dragon, phoenix, pearls and hair are both symmetrical from left to right, and the dragon, phoenix has a vivid posture, and the jewelry is bright and radiant, making the phoenix crown give people a dignified but not rigid, gorgeous and harmonious artistic feeling, the noble identity of the empress and mother in the world is best reflected.

"The wine utensils unearthed in this tomb are all pure gold. There are also gold ingots here. Look, these unearthed gold ingots are basically raised at both ends and concave in the middle, which looks like a ship-shaped one.

The unearthed gold ingots can be divided into sizes. The larger ones weigh ten taels (actually known as 370.5~380.5 grams); the smaller ones weigh two taels and three taels (actually known as 71~111.5 grams). There are two types of gold that indicate the quality of gold and ninety-six colors.”

A beautiful tour guide pointed at some goldware and was introducing tourists in the museum.

Standing next to the tour guide were three beauties, one in a long red dress, but his face was full of heroic spirit, and it looked like a sonorous rose.

Standing beside her was a beauty wearing a yellow knee-length skirt. The beauty was tall and smiling, but she looked noble no matter how she looked. She was completely different from the beauty in the red skirt next to her. If she had to describe it, she was like a rich peony.

Standing next to this rich peony is also a beauty. She is also tall and plump, but she is indeed wearing a simple white dress with a white long dress until her feet are naked. Such a dress could have become a simple lily, but the charm of this beauty is too grand, so she looks like a soul-catching flower, charming, and tempting.

"Han Peacock is amazing. He can find so many things by excavating a large tomb." Although Qin Mingyue's tone was calm, she had a kind of unintentional charm.

"Is this a silver ingot? It's so ugly." Although Meiren Zhou looked beautiful and noble, she spoke a little cutely.

"It's oxidized! This is normal." Liu Xu was very direct, fully demonstrating her cheerful personality.

"The silver ingots unearthed are like this. For example, there are four types: two silver ingots (actually measured 1840 grams to 1878 grams), three two (actually measured gram ~ 1145 grams), two two two (actually measured 725 grams to 745.5 grams), and two two (actually measured 363.5 grams to 373.5 grams).

All are concave, with fifty taels on the front, with convex edges around, and convex bulge on the back; thirty taels on the front, twenty taels on the front, and the center of the front, with a slightly concave at both ends, and the two ends are slightly convex. The back is slightly bulge on the back." At this time, the tour guide took advantage of the situation.

"It's boring to see too much of these things." Zhou Meiren said.

"I like this more, this bowl is good." Liu Xu pointed at something and said.

"I'm afraid this is not a bowl." Qin Mingyue covered her mouth and smirked.

Liu Xu gave her a blank look and said, "You are not as educated as me, what are you proud of?"

"I can't compare with you, you can't forget it." Qin Mingyue smiled even more happily.

Zhou Meiren said: "Is this necessary to shoot TV?"

Among the three, only Qin Mingyue had the least contact with antiques. Liuxu relied on erudition and strong memory, and Zhou Meiren was influenced since childhood. Qin Mingyue only knew some utensils used by ancient people when filming costume dramas.

"This is a hollow gold box and jade bowl with silk, made of white jade, 4.2 high, 10.8 diameter, and 10.4 cm bottom diameter. It has a tight mouth, round belly, flat bottom, and the abdomen is decorated with deformed phoenix patterns, and the claws are held by Ganoderma lucidum. There is a round wooden support at the bottom of the bowl, and it is equipped with a gold box. The overall pattern is mainly decorated with cloud dragon patterns and sea water river cliff patterns.

You look at the inscription engraved on the outer wall of the bottom for a week: The silver game made in the first year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty was made of 80% gold boxes, and the total plate weighs 28 taels and 6 coins. This is a real practical instrument of the palace."

The tour guide was very conscientious, so as long as the three girls didn't speak, she would give the introduction as soon as they could.

"How many things are there here?" Zhou Meiren said.

The tour guide said with a smile: "This time, more than 7,000 pieces of various objects were unearthed from the underground palace, including gold, silver, jade, jewelry, gold crown, phoenix crown, Yansui, crown, crown, hundred-seeded clothes, etc., which are of immeasurable value."

"Important? Is this agate? Let's talk about how much this agate bracelet is worth?" Qin Mingyue stroked an agate bracelet on her wrist and said.

This bracelet is blood-red all over and has a high purity. She knows that among agate, red agate is the most precious, and here there is also a red agate bracelet, so Qin Mingyue wanted to ask, what is the difference between this agate bracelet and hers.

"This is Southern Red Agate, and it costs 5 million to make a small amount." The tour guide was obviously very familiar with everything here, regardless of size or type. It can be said that he came casually.

"Five million?" Qin Mingyue's smile was restrained. Although she knew that this agate bracelet should not be cheap, the price of five million was beyond her expectations.

"This is the southern red agate. The southern red agate is a general term for a brightly colored and thick-looking red agate produced in the southwest of my country. The ancients called it red qiong. The southern red agate, which can reach the bright color and has few cracks, has low origins. The royal family and Buddhists of China have been obsessed with collecting and playing with southern red agate, so the price is very expensive." The tour guide introduced.

"Then what do you think of me?" Qin Mingyue asked with his bracelet.

"I'm sorry, I don't know about this. I don't know how to identify agate. I only know that this bracelet is made of southern red agate." The tour guide said sorry.

"You are not Nanhong. Nanhong has very little production. It is produced in Xinjiang, Xinjiang, Yun, Nan, Si, southern Sichuan, Qing, Hai, Gan, Su, etc. In recent years, the new material production areas are mainly concentrated in Daliangshan, Yun, Nanbao, and Shan in Sichuan." Han Peacock appeared beside them at some time, and spoke at this time.

"Red has always meant festiveness since ancient times. Chinese red has always been the darling of the market. The key to the preciousness of southern red lies in its natural red formation." Han Peacock said with a smile.

"So, my bracelet is not bad either?" Qin Mingyue said with a smile.

Looking at the infinitely charming Qin Mingyue, Han Peacock also relaxed. He walked forward and hugged Qin Mingyue and Zhou Meiren beside her and said, "Did you two finally remember me?"

"What's wrong? If we don't come to find you, you will keep playing with missing? Don't change the topic, just say how about my bracelet? I suspect it is a defective product now." Qin Mingyue said a little coquettishly.

Han Peacock had no choice but to say, "I didn't understand agate at that time, so I'll give it to you when I see this agate bracelet is beautiful. After all, southern red agate is very rare."

The preciousness of Nanhong is first of all because of its pleasant color. Secondly, Nanhong’s materials are scarce and the yield rate is extremely low.

If the highest realm of jade is glass-type imperial green, then the highest realm of agate is Nanhong.

Nanhong has a hardness of between 6.5-7, which is suitable for engraving processing.

The high-quality Nanhong Mine was once a dead mine during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, collectors were so happy that they owned a Nanhong object.

"Then I'm really a bad product?" Qin Mingyue said with a pout.

Han Peacock laughed and said, "If you like it, I'll give you this bracelet."

Han Peacock pointed to the agate bracelet on display and said.

Qin Mingyue looked at the different gaze of the tour guide next to her and hurriedly said, "Forget it, I won't show this limelight. If someone knows it, I don't know what kind of storm it will cause! I think it's great to put it here and let everyone see it."

"You have thought about it. This bracelet is not simple. It is not only made of southern red agate, but also a very rare rose red." Han Peacock said with a smile.

The red of southern red is also differentiated. The industry divides southern red into brocade red, persimmon red, rose red, cinnabar red, red white material, and white material.

Among them, persimmon red, rare rose red, brocade red, cherry red, etc. are all of the highest grade colors.

"Forget it, I'm not short of such a bracelet." Qin Mingyue shook her head and said.

"Can this bracelet really sell for five million?" Liu Xu asked curiously at this time.

Zhou Meiren said: "The price has increased significantly recently. Not only jade, jade, like Nanhong, with a strong texture, a moist look, and rich carving forms. With the emergence of high-quality Nanhong works, works with good integrity and exquisite craftsmanship will also bring the Nanhong collection quality in recent years to a new height."

Zhou Meiren is in the jewelry business and is naturally familiar with agate. (To be continued.)
