Identification of a cultural relic porcelain pen holder
The following are some ways to identify cultural relics porcelain pen holders: ** 1. In terms of the quality of the fetus ** 1. ** Kangxi Blue Flower Pen Pot ** - The shape of the vessel is thick, the body is hard and thin, and the texture is as fine as jade. The body is neat and tidy, and the hand feels heavy. The bottom foot is mostly made of glutinous rice, and the bottom foot of jade is more common. - The quality of the Kangxi porcelain body was better in the Qing Dynasty, and it reached its peak during the Yongzheng period. The body was white and delicate. 2. ** Other pen holders ** - Different dynasties, kiln mouth pen holder body quality will be different. For example, during the Guangxu period, there may be brown eyes at the bottom of the porcelain of the folk kiln, while there are fewer brown eyes at the bottom of the porcelain of the official kiln. If it was an old porcelain, its body would naturally age over time. ** Two, from the glaze ** 1. ** Color Attribute ** - Porcelains from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties may have the characteristics of duck egg green glaze after being fired (green, similar to the color of duck egg shell). Modern crafts porcelain glaze is often whiter. For example, the glaze of the Kangxi pen holder evolved from the early bluish-white to the middle pinkish-white and pasty white. After the middle period to the Yongzheng period, it changed to hard and bright cyan glaze. In the late Kangxi period and Yongzheng period, the surface glaze color was bluish-white glaze. 2. ** Special Phenomenon ** - The glaze of some old porcelain may have the phenomenon of peeling off the glaze. The porcelain made in the past may not be compatible with the carcass, which will cause the glaze to fall off. It is more common to peel off the glaze of the early celadon porcelain. At the same time, the presence of brown eyes inside the brush holder was also one of the distinguishing features. ** 3. Blue Flower Hair Color (For Blue Flower Pen Pot)** 1. ** Kangxi period ** - It was mainly made of pearl minerals produced in Yunnan, and the content of tungsten dioxide could reach 8 - 9%. The blue and white flower was pure in color, bright and green. It was the standard color tone of the blue and white flowers of the past dynasties. Using the water dividing method, the blue and white flower pattern could be divided into five colors. The main color was blue, and the color tone was deep and close to the fetus. - In the early years of Kangxi (20 years ago), the color of blue and white flowers was dark and gray; after the 20th year of Kangxi, the color of blue and white flowers began to change and gradually transitioned to the turquoise blue color at the peak; in the middle years of Kangxi, the color of blue and white flowers gradually changed.(between the 20th and 45th year of Kangxi) The blue and white flowers were green and elegant, with varying shades (up to dozens of layers). In the late Kangxi period (after the 40th year of Kangxi), the blue and white flowers changed from the middle green to light gray, and there might be a faint phenomenon. 2. ** Other periods or imitations ** - Blue and white flowers had different hair colors in different periods. It was difficult for imitations to completely imitate the characteristics of the real blue and white flowers. For example, the real blue and white flowers would have aging characteristics and mature light characteristics, including density, slightly hard and bright, slightly oily, slightly thick, and luster with toughness changes. However, imitations often had a luster density that was not tight, not hard and bright, dry, not transparent, no thickness, and no luster with toughness changes. ** 4. In terms of decorative techniques and painting skills ** 1. ** Kangxi period ** - During the Kangxi period, the penholder painted with blue and white flowers had a rich decorative theme, such as the stone girl painting, the mountain forest painting, the fisherman's music painting, or the writing of poetry and prose. The painting used layers of painting techniques. The figures and rocks were mostly painted in the China painting method. The blue and white color was pure blue, green and bright, and there were many distinct layers. The lines were slender and powerful. The figures were tall and upright. The ladies had high hair buns, slender faces, and a slit in their eyes. 2. ** Other times ** - Different dynasties had their own unique styles and decorative subjects. For example, the painting of pastel flower and bird pen holders, the fine degree of painting and meaning of peony flowers, birds playing with branches, etc. could be used as a basis for identification. ** 5. In terms of money ** 1. ** Kangxi period ** - In the early Kangxi period, there were fewer blue-and-white books with emperor titles. It was common to see the Ganzhi style or the "Ming Dynasty System" style of the previous dynasty, as well as the style of the vegetarian hall. In the middle period, the book style became customized, but the blue-and-white was green and bright. There were few books with dynasty style, but more books with Chenghua, Jiajing style or various pictures and vegetarian hall style. In the later period, there were also corresponding style features. 2. ** Other times ** - For example, the porcelain of Guangxu period, the official kiln and the folk kiln had different styles. If the bottom of the tire was "made in the Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty", it was necessary to judge whether it was a folk kiln by combining other characteristics. Because there were more porcelain in the Guangxu period, but the characteristics of the bottom of the official kiln were different from the folk kiln. Read more exciting novels for free
cultural relic pen holder
The penholder was a kind of study tool, and many cultural relics have been preserved to this day. In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a blue-and-white mountain-shaped pen holder, which is now collected in Hangzhou Museum. There was a wooden pen holder in the Tang Dynasty, which was unearthed from the Astana cemetery in Turpan City. It is now hidden in the Xinjiang Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology. At that time, the brush used with it was shorter, different from modern brushes. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a "Blue Pass Association" copper pen holder, which was originally collected by Xiaojin Commune of Qingyang County. It was 19 cm high, 24 cm long and 7.4 cm wide. It had a unique shape and used a variety of carving techniques. It was a fine work in the study room. It was a national second-class cultural relic and was now collected in Qingyang City Museum. There was also a blue and white figure pen holder, 8.5 cm high, 14.5 cm wide and 4.2 cm thick. The Painting of Coral Pen Stand by Mi Fu of the Northern Song Dynasty was also related to the pen stand. Back then, Mi Fu created this painting because he was boasting about his collection of coral pen stands to his friends. This was also his only painting that was handed down from generation to generation. It was a national first-class cultural relic and was now stored in the Palace Museum in Beijing. In addition, there was also a modern imitation of the ancient Hetian jade five rats fortune pattern jade pen holder. It was an imitation, and the production process was crude. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
cultural relic year identification
There were two main methods to identify the age of cultural relics: eye identification and scientific identification. Eye identification was to carefully observe and judge by experts. It mainly looked at the shape, material, craftsmanship, patina, and other aspects. With the experience of experts, they could make a rough judgment on the age of cultural relics. However, with the development of the collection market, technology was needed to identify the replicas or imitations that were difficult to distinguish from the original. The common methods of age measurement in scientific appraisal were: 1. "carbon-14 detection: mainly used to determine the age of organic cultural relics, such as silk, human bones, wood, and other cultural relics that were once living or synthesized. The principle was to calculate the corresponding age by measuring the carbon-14 content based on the decay law of the carbon-14 atom. 2. Luminosity dating: It is divided into two types: thermoluminescent and luminous. Thermoluminance was mainly used to measure the age of pottery, porcelain, and bronzes (using their pottery or sand models), while OTL was mainly used for geological dating with a relatively large age span, such as determining the geological age of deposits such as yellow soil and sand layers. 3. In addition, there were methods such as ultra-depth microscope observation, rust product analysis, and X-ray photography, which could be combined with traditional identification to help experts more accurately determine the age or authenticity of cultural relics. In addition, there were five recognized methods to determine the age of classical furniture. One was to have a year mark on the model itself; the second was to use the year mark of the coexisting cultural relics; the third was to use the geological method to judge; the fourth was to use the type of artifact to determine the age (find the standard instrument as a reference); the fifth was modern scientific methods, such as C14, thermoluminosity method, etc. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Cultural relic identification is funny
There were some funny phenomena in the field of cultural relics identification. For example, in some treasure appraisal programs or online videos, some people took out some " cultural relics " that obviously did not conform to historical logic to identify, such as porcelain that claimed to be in the shape of a thermos bottle with the words " Ming Chengzu " at the bottom of it during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and porcelain that was shaped like an AK-47 assault rifle but insisted that it was blue and white porcelain. These strange " cultural relics " made people laugh. In addition, there were also many funny videos on the Internet about identifying cultural relics, such as " Is this pot from the Western Zhou Dynasty or the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?" " This is fake. It looks like it was from last week." On the one hand, these funny cultural relics identification incidents reflected the lack of understanding of cultural relics knowledge by some people. On the other hand, it also increased the public's attention to cultural relics identification. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Ruyao cultural relic porcelain
Ru kiln was a famous kiln in the late Northern Song Dynasty, which was specially used to make celadon glazed porcelain for the palace. It was one of the five famous kilns in the Northern Song Dynasty together with the official kiln, Ge kiln, Jun kiln and Ding kiln. The kiln site was in the area of Qingliang Temple and Hanzhuang Village in Daying Town, Baofeng County, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province. The porcelain of Ru kiln was simple and elegant in shape. It was mostly used for daily life and study utensils, such as vase utensils (paper mallet vase, jade pot spring vase, gallbladder vase, etc.), lotus flower pedestal, lotus leaf pedestal, hole-carving ware, porcelain sculpture crafts (birds, dragons, etc.), as well as porcelain decorated with flowers, birds, insects, and fish. The fetus was grayish-white in color, with different shades. It was similar to incense ash after burning, commonly known as the "incense ash fetus". Most of the glazes were cyan, commonly known as "duck egg shell cyan". There were also bean green, cyan, moon white, orange peel, and other glazes. The glaze was warm and simple, bright and lustrous. The color was moist and pure, and the patterns were crystal clear and changeable. There was a common saying that "sky blue is expensive, pink blue is more expensive, and sky blue is more precious." Most of the glazes were covered with a red glow, and because agate was added to the glaze, it showed a unique effect. The Ru kiln porcelain used the method of binding the feet and burning them. Because it was fully glazed, nails and cushions would be used to prevent the porcelain from being contaminated. There would be three, five, or seven traces of nails at the bottom. The surface of porcelain often had small cracks, but there were also treasures without cracks, such as the Ru kiln celadon narcissus basin in the National Palace Museum. There were only six authentic Ru kiln narcissus basins, four of which were in the National Palace Museum in Taiwan, one in the Oriental ceramic art museum in Osaka, Japan, and one in Jilin Province museum the mainland of China. As the Ru Guan Kiln had only been fired for more than 20 years, the number of artifacts handed down was less than 100. Most of them were collected by public museum and cultural institutions, so they were extremely precious. Once they appeared in the auction market, they often set a record for sky-high prices. In the history of the development of ancient China porcelain, Ru porcelain had a symbolic meaning. Its shape, glaze, and production process could be said to be one of a kind. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Cultural relic identification as the core profession
Cultural relic identification belonged to the category of cultural relics and museum studies. It was the work of using traditional methods or modern science and technology to analyze and identify the authenticity, age, texture, use, and value of cultural relics. There were specialized undergraduate majors in cultural relic identification in universities, such as the one offered by Peking University's Resource College, which was aimed at cultivating high-level professionals in cultural relic identification. The method of identifying cultural relics differed according to the type of cultural relics. For example, for a single-colored glazed porcelain, one could start from the color, the foot, and other aspects. The lighter the year, the darker the color. The higher the year, the lighter the color. The method of identifying the foot was similar to that of blue and white porcelain. For paper calligraphy and painting appraisal, gloves were needed to prevent sweat from damaging the ink. In archaeological work, gloves were also needed to protect the state of the cultural relics after they were unearthed, such as jade and bronze. However, for porcelain appraisal, gloves were easy to slip and cause damage, so gloves were generally not worn. At the same time, there were some shady deals in the cultural relic appraisal industry. The relevant laws and regulations were imperfect, and there were endless means of forgery. There were fake experts fishing in troubled waters. They had to be cautious when trading. Trading in formal trading markets and institutions could reduce the risk of being cheated. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Cultural relic identification stone lion
Cultural relic identification stone lions belonged to the category of cultural relic identification. Cultural relic identification was the work of using scientific methods to analyze and identify the authenticity, texture, use, and value of cultural relics, including identifying authenticity, determining the age, explaining the texture, naming, evaluating the value, and so on. Generally speaking, stone lions of different periods had different characteristics, which could be used as a basis for identification. For example, before the Western Han Dynasty, the image of stone lions began to spread to China. They were similar to tigers and were huge in size. Most of them appeared in high-level royal tombs as tomb guarding beasts. During the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties, China was in social unrest and the dynasties changed frequently. The spread of Buddhism developed rapidly. The stone lion sculptures had various subjects, different sizes and shapes. Its hair was curly and most of them looked like dogs. The Northern Wei Dynasty was the most typical. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the country was prosperous. The stone lions held their heads high and puffed out their chests. Their eyes were protruding, their noses were high, their mouths were wide and sharp, and their hair was more realistic. It was exquisite and realistic, with distinct layers of features. Their muscles were strong and full, and their tendons and claws were strong and powerful. The stone lions of the Song and Yuan Dynasties inherited the style of the Tang Dynasty. Most of them still stood tall and straight, but they lacked the might of the Tang lions. Their images were closer to real lions, and their hair was more realistic. The lions of the Yuan Dynasty paid more attention to the shape of the structure, and the rise and fall of the muscles were outstanding. The stone lions in the Ming and Qing Dynasties were more exquisite, but they lacked a lot of aggressiveness. The image was more realistic than the previous period, and the shape tended to be more complicated. There were more details, such as the undulating muscles on the limbs, the curly hair on the head, and the bell on the body. However, they did not pay much attention to the lion's overall momentum. Cultural relics identification sometimes used traditional methods or modern science and technology. The traditional "eye study" relied on eyesight and experience, but there were limitations. In terms of modern science and technology, portable video microscopes (such as Anyty's MSA200, WM401TV, etc.) would be used in the calligraphy and painting industry to assist in the identification. However, whether such instruments were used in the identification of stone lions or whether there were other instruments specifically for the identification of stone lions was not specifically mentioned. At the same time, the identification of cultural relics in China lacked clear standards, scientific and strict assessment mechanisms, and supervision systems. They might also face such problems when identifying stone lions. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

A cultural relic porcelain bottle is worth tens of millions
There were many cultural relics porcelain bottles that were worth tens of millions or even more. For example, a blue-glazed white dragon plum vase. A citizen of Yangzhou once sold this ancestral vase to a cultural relics store for 18 yuan. Later, it was recognized as a Yuanji blue-glazed white dragon plum vase. There were only three such plum vases in the world and only two in China. The Hong Kong collector, Mr. Xu Zhantang, once offered more than 300 million yuan to buy it. The one currently in Yangzhou Museum was the largest and most well-preserved in the world. A French merchant offered to buy it for 4 billion yuan but was rejected. There was also a porcelain vase stolen from a Ming Dynasty tomb by a tomb robber that was bought by a collector for five gold bars. It was identified as the Yuan Dynasty's "Yuan Qinghua Xiao Heyue Chasing Han Xin's Plum Vase". It was priceless and had an estimated value of one billion.
