Chapter 42: Ru Kiln Sky Celadon Glazed Plum Vase
Ye Tianping regained his excitement, pointed at something on the table in front of him and asked:
"Hello, can you see this lamp?"
"OK! Please look, but be careful, this is fragile"
The stall owner smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Please rest assured, I won't get started, just put it on the table and enjoy it"
Then Ye Tian carefully moved the lamp in front of him and began to examine it carefully.
The main body of the table lamp is a sky-blue porcelain vase, about 30 cm high, with a fresh and elegant glaze, which is very beautiful; the lampshade is a British palace-style glass product, magnificent, magnificent, and full of luxury.
If you look at the vase and the lampshade separately, you will find that they are very beautiful and pleasing to the eye! But the combination of these two things gives people a sense of nondescript, and even a bit unbearable to witness!
Obviously, this is a DIY work of low standard! The producer forcibly combined two things with intense style conflicts.
This author may have a waste utilization mentality and combined the idle vases and lampshades to save a sum of money for buying desk lamps.
At the moment when he saw this lamp, Ye Tian almost turned his head away. It was so awkward!
But the color and shape of the vase, as well as the dazzling red and multi-layered halo, all grabbed his eyes tightly, making him reluctant to look away for a moment.
There is no doubt that this is a valuable antique!
The lampshade does not have any light but has a halo. It is a modern handicraft with a little artistic value.
If you are familiar with Chinese porcelain, you can definitely recognize the vase in front of you instantly.
This is a Ru kiln sky celadon-glazed plum vase, about 30 cm high, with a small mouth, short neck, plump shoulders, thin bottom, and ringed feet. The shape is pretty, pretty, glazed, elegant and clean, very beautiful.
After only two glances, two lines of poem flashed in Ye Tian's mind.
"Rain over the sky, clear clouds*This color is the future"
The verses of Song Huizong describing the sky celadon glaze of Ru Kiln are too appropriate and beautiful!
The sky green-glazed plum bottle in front of me, no matter the glaze color or the shape, is extremely in line with Chinese aesthetics! The sky celadon glaze of Ru Kiln in Song Dynasty is the pinnacle of Chinese porcelain!
The old beauty with thick lines does not necessarily like this light, elegant, and dusty artwork.
After secretly admiring and admiring, Ye Tian began to analyze the plum bottle in front of him.
radiates red light, indicating that it is an antique within 300 years, and it cannot be the Ru kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty. From the light intensity, it should be an imitation of Ru kiln in the mid-Qianlong period.
According to the number of halo layers on the outside of the plum bottle, it is certain that it is Qianlong official kiln, which is similar to the Qianlong official kiln of the Metropolitan Museum.
But the strange thing is that the halo of this plum bottle is unstable, and it feels a little floating.
Obviously its value is in doubt!
took a closer look at the exterior again. There were no damages or cracks, only some traces left by improper wiping, and the rest are still well preserved. Is there something inside?
Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately began to see through.
'S line of sight penetrated the thin bottle wall, and the inside and outside of the plum bottle was immediately visible.
In the next second, he discovered the problem.
"These dead foreigners can spoil things too much! They are violent!"
Ye Tiantian cursed in annoyance.
No wonder he was angry, there is an evil wire inside the plum bottle! Put it on from the bottom, pass through the small bottle mouth, and connect to the lamp holder outside.
The moment he saw the wires, his heart was cold!
got it! Another piece of antique porcelain that was dug out by an ignorant foreigner to make a lamp.
With this worry and loss, he quickly looked at the bottom of the plum bottle.
As expected, there is a round hole the size of a dollar coin in the middle of the bottom of the porcelain, where the wires are threaded through.
With the knowledge of antiques learned in the museum during this period, Ye Tian understood that the punching position is the place where the Qianlong official kiln porcelain was written, and there is no exception!
A Qianlong official kiln imitation Ru-glazed plum vase with no or destroyed or perforated Qianlong official kiln may not even have a tenth of its original value!
If this plum bottle is intact, it should be worth six to seven thousand dollars, but now a few thousand dollars is the sky, almost completely destroyed by the stupid foreigner!
Although he was very disappointed, Ye Tian still planned to win the plum bottle.
It only took less than a minute from seeing this lamp to when he analyzed the situation and decided to take action.
Although the time is short, it is enough for the two tails behind him to follow up and prepare to win love with a sword!
When Ye Tian was about to ask the stall owner for a price, he was preempted.
"Hello, this lamp is very beautiful, I like it very much, how much is the price?"
Hearing this, Ye Tian frowned and turned his head to look at him. Jason beside him also looked at him.
Two people came next, one black and the other white, both about 30 years old, with big waists and round faces, looking like black and white impermanence!
It was the white man who was speaking at the auction of Smithsonian Storage Company, but he did not know his name. He was a professional treasure hunter, and the other black man did not know him at all.
Ye Tian sneered at the idea that he liked this lamp, and didn't believe it at all!
Two meters away, do you like this lamp? Have you seen it clearly?
I was targeted by these two professional treasure hunters! They want to take a ride on the cheap.
Today’s treasure hunt will not be too smooth!
Although he understood the taste, Ye Tian couldn't say anything about the behavior of the two people in front of him.
I have neither gotten started nor inquired about trading. They have no problem intervening now.
This plum bottle is of little value. It doesn’t matter if you can’t get it right, but it’s very uncomfortable to be shown this way!
Since you don’t follow the rules to play yin, then buddy will accompany you to play and see who is unlucky in the end?
Ye Tian decided in an instant to fight the two of these black and white impermanence.
"Hey! Steven, hey! Jason, good morning, I didn’t expect to meet you here, it’s a coincidence!"
The white man smiled and said hello, very polite, but it was nonsense that no one believed!
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, saying hello.
"Robert, is it too much? Is that what you do in business?"
Jason said angrily, he also understood the situation before him.
"I can see it very clearly. Steven is just watching and not trading. What's wrong with my approach?"
Robert shrugged his shoulders with a blank expression on his face.
"Forget it, Jason, it's really fine for him to do this"
Ye Tian persuaded, and then turned back to prepare for the inquiry transaction.
The stall owner did not respond to Robert before, but looked at Ye Tian to see how he reacted. After all, he was the first person to pay attention to this lamp.
At the same time, a hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the stall owner.
Someone came out to compete, that would be great, maybe this broken lamp can sell for a high price!
While talking, Robert walked to the booth and immediately began to check the lamp.
As a professional treasure hunter, he naturally knows about porcelain. At a glance, he can tell that the vase in front of him is from China, maybe it is a valuable antique porcelain!
Although he can't appraise, he knows the market of Chinese antique porcelain very well.
is too hot! It can only be described like this! There are countless Chinese porcelain auctions in New York every year, and high-priced antique porcelain abound!
In addition, the major museums in New York also display a lot of Chinese porcelain, all of which are very valuable.
So when he saw this porcelain, Robert felt ecstatic.
"The decision to keep up with this Chinese kid is absolutely correct, maybe I will get rich today!"
In just half a minute, Robert had already checked.
Then he raised his head and looked at the stall owner, excitedly waiting for the offer, and then grabbed the antique porcelain.
Although he checked this plum bottle, he neglected the most important part of identifying Chinese porcelain, that is, the identification!
Of course, Robert doesn’t know Chinese characters at all, and he doesn’t know which emperors are in China, so he can’t understand it! What's more, they are eager to get rich and ignore these.
At the same time, he also trusts Ye Tian's vision. This Chinese boy must be interested in something good, and it is absolutely right to win!
Discovering that Robert hadn't checked the bottom of the plum bottle, Ye Tian was immediately happy.
This is the pit! It can definitely pit your idiot to vomit blood! I want to follow my buddies to pick up the bargains and dream!
Robert finished checking, the stall owner immediately smiled and quoted the price.
"Gentlemen, the price of this table lamp is 50 dollars, no problem, the lighting is very beautiful! It is absolutely value for money, which gentleman is interested in it? You can get it!"
After raising the quotation from the pre-determined 20 to 50 without conscience, the stall owner immediately looked at Ye Tian and Robert with anticipation in his eyes.
Gentlemen, you can start the competition. The more intense the better, I hope you can bring me more dollars!
"OK! 50 dollars, I want it!"
Robert responded excitedly, and he reached out and prepared to pay.
"100 dollars! This is what I saw first, it should belong to me!"
Ye Tian said coldly, the quotation doubled directly, interrupting Robert's action.
"150 dollars!"
Robert continued to follow up. After the price was quoted, he immediately smiled and said to Ye Tian:
"Steven, there is no need to fight for a lamp, right? I really like it, and I want to have it urgently"
Ye Tian returned him with a bright smile, then his face quickly turned cold, and continued to double the price.
"$300! Sorry~www.wuxiaspot.com~Robert, I also like this lamp very much, so you'd better quit it, after all, I saw it first!"
Hearing that the two of them doubled and increased the price, the stall owner was suddenly a bit silly!
What an unexpected surprise! At the same time, his eyes were full of puzzlement.
This is just my son’s DIY work, is it worth so much money? Maybe his son is a talented artist?
Then, he shook his head quickly, and drove this unrealistic idea out of his mind. If that **** is an artist, then everyone in the world is Picasso!
Then he thought that the two things that make up the lamp might be antiques? And it's not cheap, so there is this fierce competition right now!
Although there are many idiots in the world, they certainly do not live in Peter Cooper!
The stall owner is obviously a clever man, and he guessed at once!
Thinking of the possibility of owning two antiques, the stall owner immediately became excited, maybe he could make a fortune today!
He didn't interrupt the competition between Ye Tian and Robert. He took back the lamp and didn't sell it. He was eager to find out what price the two of them could offer!
As for whether to sell or not, it depends on the price and your mood!
These psychological activities were all in the blink of an eye, and did not affect Ye Tian and Robert's bidding.
The next second, the stall owner heard Robert's follow-up offer.
"500 dollars"
quoted this price, Robert was already a little surprised.
"Is this a pit? Are you going to pit me?"
At this time, he couldn't help thinking of Garcia and the others. Those people were synonymous with idiots by Ye Tiankeng! No one wants to repeat the same mistakes, and so does he!
But then Ye Tian's words immediately dispelled his doubts and made him prepare to bid to the end!
