Chapter 762 Jade Dragon Chair

Mitsui Takawa stood in front of this chair and looked at it for a long time, but he couldn’t see why. Although he thought he was an expert in sinology, he was actually just a sinologist with half a bucket of water.

Although he can read and write Chinese characters, it does not mean that he is also an expert in Chinese antiques, otherwise he would not have to hire Yoshihiko Noda as his investment advisor.

After looking at it for a long time, he could only see that this chair was exquisitely made, even an unheard of fine product, but if he was asked to determine which dynasty in China this chair came from, he really couldn’t tell. .

On the other hand, Mitsui Mitsui looked at it for a long time, and finally seemed to see some doorway.

He stood up first, with a somewhat complacent look on his face, and then with a somewhat ostentatious tone, he said to his brother: “The material of this Yulong Chair should be from the Hotan Green Topaz. The top-quality Lingrunzi material. If you look at the color, the jade quality of the dragon chair is in a state of weathering. From the pattern, it should be buried in the mud and wrapped for a long time. Look at this piece, the jade quality is relatively loose. The color escaped, so I deduced that this chair should have been buried in the ground for many years, and it was only recently unearthed. Because the color-forming metal element in the Khotan blue topaz species is iron ions, you can see that the green color of this piece is The yellow jade part is precipitated from the inside to the outside, and the distribution range is scattered and stretched, making the jade material more slick and creamy.”

Although this Mitsui Guangliang is a straw bag, after all, he has been in the antique world for more than 20 years, so he still has some basic skills.

And he is still the curator of the Tokyo National Museum. There are a lot of ancient Chinese jades in this museum, and there are works from all ages, so he can tell the quality of this jade. One and two.

After his remarks, Mitsui Takawa nodded. Indicates that he can understand what his brother said, and then he waved his hand for his brother to continue.

Mitsui Mitsui tugged at the collar of his suit. I have seen so many antiques today, but most of them were identified by Yoshihiko Noda. But Yoshihiko Noda was out of the limelight, and he, the director of the Tokyo National Museum, hasn’t shown much.

If no one else was present, he wouldn’t care, but after all, there were celebrities in the Japanese pottery industry like Kobayashi Kyosuke. If he didn’t show his performance today, it would be a bit embarrassing to spread it out.

And now, he felt that it should be his own performance time. Especially at this time that Kobayashi Gongsuke was also standing next to his brother, looking at himself with bright eyes, which made his heart swell a little bit.

“We have finished reading the materials of this jade dragon chair. Next, let’s talk about the workmanship of this dragon chair. In terms of workmanship, this dragon chair can be said to be extremely delicate, transparent, and wispy. Empty. Reducing the ground, embossing, embossing, garden carving. Cutting, combining, digging and digging, etc. The classic craftsmanship of ancient Chinese jade carvings are all reflected in this jade dragon chair. It can be said that this jade dragon chair The top-level production technology of all ancient Chinese jade carvings is concentrated in the above, so it is not an exaggeration to say that this jade dragon chair is an artistic masterpiece that has never been seen before or has never come after. Moreover, this chair also used a lot of Han Dynasty. The carving process of eight knives, when carving these dragon patterns, the craftsmen who made them simplified the knife work as much as possible. Using the simplest knife method to carve the most vivid jade dragon, with such skill, it can definitely be said to be a jade article The master craftsman. The polishing method of this jade dragon chair should be hand-removing jade, and the tail sand and animal skin are used for careful polishing, so that the polished jade gives this jade dragon chair this soft light feeling In terms of the shape of the utensil, this should be a large-scale combination fitting. That is to say, this jade dragon chair is assembled from multiple pieces of jade carvings. It is completely mortise and tenon structure. In the process, neither nails nor glue are used, and they are assembled together by mortise and tenon fitting. This can be said to be the top craft in ancient Chinese furniture production techniques. It can be inferred from this that it can be produced The person who made this jade dragon chair is definitely a Chinese jade carving and furniture maker in which era!”

Mitsui Mitsui pointed at the Jade Dragon Chair, and said that he was righteous, but Mitsui Takawa and Kobayashi Kyousuke, who didn’t quite understand what was going on, nodded frequently.

Mitsui Mitsui used a lot of professional terms to make his words seem very professional and profound. It is enough to fool the nicknames like Mitsui Takawa and Kobayashi Kyosuke.

“Then this Yulong chair should be the work of that dynasty?”

Based on Mitsui Mitsui’s analysis, Mitsui Takawa can basically conclude that this jade dragon chair must be a treasure that has just been unearthed recently, and it is of top quality. The most important thing is that this is a dragon chair.

In ancient China, not everyone could make a dragon chair, and even in the whole of China, there was only one person who could sit on such a chair at that time, and that was the emperor at that time.

Thinking of this, Mitsui Guika’s heart began to heat up, and what a royal treasure!

Today, it seems that I really picked it up. You must know that there are not many dragon chairs of the Chinese emperor that can be preserved. There are so many, but they are still displayed in the Palace Museum in China.

If you can get a dragon chair of the Chinese emperor today, then no matter how much it costs, it will be worth it.

But the key question now is to determine which emperor used this chair.

“Well, according to the carving work of this chair, I think it should be the carving work and practice of the jade masters in Su@zhou and Yang@zhou during the Qing Dynasty in China. After all, the jade carving technicians in those two places in that era were the A group of jade carving masters with the highest craftsmanship in ancient Chinese history. Many of Emperor Qianlong’s favorite jades were carved by their own hands. And this jade dragon chair is so intricately carved, it must have spent a lot of time and effort. , the investment is definitely not small. And the emperor who is most willing to spend money on jade in Chinese history is probably the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, right?”

Mitsui Mitsui touched his chin and said his inference, and his face couldn’t hide the smugness.

At this time, Watanabe Junichi, who had been hiding behind the chair to check, just stood up.

Although Mitsui Mitsui was swearing and his analysis was righteous, his brother Mitsui Takawa knew his brother very well.

His younger brother is definitely a typical example of Zhida and sparse talents. Although he has a little ability, he usually likes it more. He understands it with half a bucket of water. In fact, if it comes to the real identification skills, it is really not as good as the current Noda Yoshihiko, or he doesn’t need to spend every year. Spending hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to hire this guy as an investment advisor.

So in terms of the identification of such an important baby, I really listen to what Yoshihiko Noda has to say.

“Noda-kun, what do you think?”

He looked at Noda Yoshihiko, who had just straightened up, and asked. Although Noda Yoshihiko was investigating and appraising the chair just now, he also listened to Mitsui Mitsui’s words.

At this time, Mitsui Takawa asked him, and he nodded at Mitsui Takawa: “Guangliang’s analysis of the jade materials, color, carving, and craftsmanship are all right. This must be a talent. The treasure that has just been unearthed for a long time, and looking at the color and pulp, you can know that this thing must have a history of hundreds of years. There is nothing wrong with the carving and splicing methods. But about the production of this jade dragon chair In terms of age, I still have my own opinion.”

Noda Yoshihiko said it very bluntly, but he had already saved a bit of face for Mitsui Mitsui, and Mitsui Mitsui’s face suddenly turned into a pig’s liver.

But in front of Kobayashi Kyousuke, it is not easy to attack on the spot. After all, although he was angry that Noda Yoshihiko slapped him in the face on the spot, after all, he also knew his appraisal level. If the appraisal is wrong, then wait for a while. , but will suffer.

So although he was very annoyed that Noda Yoshihiko had slapped him in the face, he also wanted to hear from this guy~www.readmtl.com~ Which dynasty produced this jade dragon chair.

“Although the engraving pattern on this jade dragon chair is exquisitely carved, the overall shape is extremely concise, and the shape is dominated by lines. We can see that its main body does not have too many red tape decorations, and the lines are extremely concise and capable. , The lines of the outer contour change very obviously. We can see that the back of the dragon chair, the armrests, and the legs of the chair are all in their own postures, giving people a strong line beauty. And this backrest, everyone Take a closer look, this is an “s”-shaped seat back, which is ergonomic and user-friendly in design, which greatly increases the comfort of this seat. Most parts of the furniture are composed of distinct parts. Yes, the lines of each part are rigid and soft. At the same time, the molding is this place…”

Yoshihiko Noda pointed to the lines on the edge of the furniture frame for Mitsui and the others to see clearly, and then continued: “It is also very distinctive, everyone mainly looks here, these edges and the feet of the chair, through the depth of the lines and the feet, Changes in height, width, roundness, and bluntness produce different effects. This is a very rare place in Chinese antique furniture…”

Noda Yoshihiko said this, Mitsui Takawa, Mitsui Mitsui, and Kobayashi Kyousuke noticed some details of this chair. After a careful experience, I really felt this chair, and they had seen it before. The difference between the antique Chinese chairs. . . (To be continued.)
