Chapter 303 Where is the charm of antiques

The word "antique" originated from the Qing Dynasty, and it was called "antique" before that.The so-called "bone" means to take the rotting meat and keep the bones, which means to preserve the essence of the past, and the so-called "dong" means to know and understand. "Antique" is the essence left by the ancients in Ming Dynasty. Where is the charm of antiques? Chinese antiques are extensive and profound.Taking porcelain as an example, its production, whether it is material selection, porcelain painting, or firing, embodies the wisdom of the ancestors.For example, the blue and white porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty was successfully created and fired in Jingdezhen kiln, and established Jingdezhen as the "Porcelain Capital". It has a long-standing reputation for fine tire work, uniform glaze, neat shape, various types of utensils, rich blue and white flowers, and beautiful patterns.

Moreover, antiques are always "true and false".In the antique market, there are countless things that are false and true.Antiques are a very profound knowledge, it is like a university, you enter but never graduate, even connoisseurs and experts will inevitably go astray sometimes.Therefore, the authenticity of antiques has always challenged the eyesight of buyers. Moreover, in addition to being for people to enjoy, antiques also have an important function, that is, value preservation and appreciation.During the period of the Republic of China, someone once bought a Chenghua Doucai Cup for one ocean, and later sold it to the United States for four thousand oceans by Lu Wu Company. According to the current statement, it is 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. However, the current value of this Doucai Cup It's already several million yuan.Therefore, the value preservation and appreciation of antiques is also an important factor for people to be keen on collecting.It should be pointed out that if anyone can use his own vision to buy at low prices and attack at high prices, it will be a refreshing thing, and it can be described as a lot of fun.

Moreover, collecting antiques can reflect your social status.In daily life, when people know that you collect antiques, they will think that you are very tasteful; when people know that you have collected precious antiques and cultural relics, then they will think that you are very valuable. There are many sayings about the price of antiques, such as "a family with a lot of money is not as good as a piece of Song porcelain", "gold has a price, but even kilns are priceless".Therefore, in the market, many big entrepreneurs and wealthy people often spend huge sums of money to acquire antiques and cultural relics from all over the world.People like Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, appear frequently in the art auction market, which really makes people feel the charm and magic of antiques.
