Chapter 106: Modern Fakes

The words uttered by Expert Peng once again surprised everyone present.

If there is really a problem with this Ming Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup, and it is seen by Expert Peng, this may still be understandable.

After all, Specialist Peng is a very famous porcelain expert in Los Angeles.

And his eyesight has always been recognized by everyone.

But.

If this question is seen by Zhang Yi, everyone will feel that it will not be convincing.

In this regard, everyone is talking about it.

Seeing this happens.

That Wang Tai said directly.

"In my opinion, Expert Peng wants to take this opportunity to make a name for his apprentice. However, using this Sanqiu Cup as a gimmick to make a name for yourself, I don't think it will be a good reputation! ”

As soon as he said it, other experts spoke.

"Yes, what's going on with this old Peng today?"

"This kid, what's so good about him that you have to praise him? What does he know as a child, really! ”

The crowd shook their heads as they spoke.

Meanwhile.

Hearing the words of other experts, Xia Qianxi also sat down.

Those experts are all veterans who have been in the antique industry for decades, with rich experience and spicy eyes.

None of them can see the problem of this Sanqiu Cup.

What can Zhang Yi see?

Even if he thinks there is a problem, if he can't say what the problem is, if he can't say a convincing reason, it will be in vain.

Just now, Xia Qianxi was really angry because of Xia Qianxun's matter, and he was a little confused.

Think about it at this point.

And he said no more.

This way.

With the permission of the two curators, Expert Peng also looked at Zhang Yi in the audience.

Those security guards also immediately let go of Zhang Yi.

"Xiao Yi, you just come up and tell everyone, where is the problem of this Sanqiu Cup!"

Zhang Yi nodded slightly.

Walked to the stage.

on this.

Xia Qianxun was still a little worried.

After all, if Zhang Yi can't tell what the problem is, Xia Qianxi will definitely take this opportunity to retaliate.

So.

I'm afraid that in the future, it will be difficult for Zhang Yi to stay in the antique circle in Los Angeles.

"Uncle Chen, can Zhang Yi really see it?"

In fact, Uncle Chen is also worried.

With Uncle Chen's eyesight, he really didn't see anything wrong with the Sanqiu Cup.

Still, he said.

"Miss Xia, don't worry, Xiao Yi can always create miracles!"

"I think if he says there's a problem, there must be a problem with this cup. You see, Expert Peng believes in him so much, I believe that he will not disappoint Expert Peng! ”

Uncle Chen's words are more of a sense of relief.

Xia Qianxun could also hear it, she just nodded silently, secretly cheering for Zhang Yi in her heart.

After coming to power.

Zhang Yi cautiously took out the Ming Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup from the box.

The director of the Los Angeles Museum asked.

"Expert Zhang, do you think there is a problem with this Ming Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup, right?"

"That's right, Curator Feng. This Ming Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup is a modern fake. It's just that its imitation craftsmanship is very superb and deceives everyone's eyes. ”

Zhang Yi said indifferently.

No one would think that a replica, no matter how masterful, would be able to fool the eyes of all the experts here.

Therefore.

The discussion below, because of this sentence, rose again.

Can you fool the eyes of all experts, can't you fool the eyes of a fart kid?

Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to the comments of those experts.

He spoke.

"The most obvious problem with this Sanqiu Cup is only one point."

"To all of you here, they are all seniors, and you must have a deeper understanding of Doucai porcelain than me. The Ming Dynasty Chenghua years of the color porcelain, the color is changeable, among them, the most mysterious color, everyone should know, is the color of the purple color. ”

"After firing, the color of this pigment is actually the same as hematite, which is what we call russet in modern times. Moreover, the glaze of the genuine purple color is very thick and has a certain convex state. ”

"In addition, the most important and most easily overlooked point is that the purple color of Doucai in the Ming Chenghua period must be dull on the surface."

"However, although the purple of this Chenghua Doucai Sanqiu Cup is also russet, the glaze is not thick enough, and it is not a dull surface."

"Why do you think this is happening?"

No one answered.

Because, the people below, including all the experts, are listening carefully to what Zhang Yi said.

There is some truth in his words.

The reason is that in the Ming Dynasty, the main ingredients of this purple color were dark brown red agate, cinnabar, mica, in addition to these, there is also an unknown mineral that people have not been able to analyze. This raw material, in the late Ming Dynasty, had been depleted, so the formula of Yinzi had also been lost. ”

"The Ming Dynasty kiln, as well as the Qing Dynasty kiln, including the modern era, are trying to imitate this glaze, but it has not been imitated successfully, because of the loss of this secret recipe."

"Actually, this Sanqiu cup, if you have to verify the authenticity, it is not difficult. You might as well use microscopic equipment to carefully test whether there is this fourth mysterious substance in this purple color and the mineral particles in it. ”

"In addition, I think that the particles of mineral raw materials on this Sanqiu cup must also be very uniform, otherwise, it will not be shiny."

"However, in ancient times, when the productivity was not developed enough, the grinding of raw materials was all hand-grinded, and the particle size had enough changes, and it was this change that took away the luster of the purple color!"

"Therefore, I believe that this is the real reason why Chenghua Doucai and Yin Zicai have no luster!"

When these words are finished.

The experts below were already stunned, because none of them could have thought of associating the size of the dye mineral particles in terms of luster.

What they didn't expect was even more.

This young man's research on porcelain glazes can be so profound.

These statements come out.

Even if they are all experienced experts, there is no way to argue with them.

Because.

Zhang Yi has already said the method of verification.

If you want to refute it, you can only use this method to verify it.

Moreover, this verification method, in addition to observation, has steps for scientific verification. It is indeed an authoritative method that can identify the authenticity of this Sanqiu cup.

Expert Peng was on the side, listening to what Zhang Yi said.

His expression became extremely surprised.

He looked at Zhang Yi with an incredulous expression.

Uncle Chen below.

It took a moment before he came to his senses.

"Miss Xia, let me say it, Xiao Yi has always been a person who can create miracles!"
