Porcelains, jades, jades, jewelries, models and specifications
For jadeite, its size was usually measured in millimeters. Different types of jadeite jewelry had different considerations in terms of size specifications. For example, when choosing a jade pendant, it had little to do with the thickness, but it paid more attention to color, water, workmanship, etc. When choosing a bracelet, in addition to paying attention to the wide face, the thickness was also very important. If it was too thin and too thin, it would be easy to break. Under the same wide face, the greater the thickness, the more expensive it would be. The largest number in the size of the jade egg face was usually the length rather than the thickness, and its thickness should be suitable for the length and width. The shape of the water drop and egg face was generally not too thick. As for jade, different jade articles had different size. For example, the 18th century white jade seahorse with skin was 13 centimeters long, the Eastern Han white jade unicorn was 5.5 centimeters wide, the Ming yellow jade lying dog was 24 centimeters long, the Western Zhou jade cow was 3.2 centimeters wide, and the clear jade hook cloud pattern ring was 8.5 centimeters in diameter. These size could help determine the value of the jade articles during trading. For porcelain, there was no specific and unified model specifications, but when collecting, one would often pay attention to information such as the production period. There was no unified measurement standard that specifically targeted the model specifications like jade. However, the size of porcelain would affect its price, value, collection value, and other aspects. As for jewelry, the reference did not clearly state the overall model specifications of the jewelry, but different types of jewelry (such as jade, which belonged to the category of jewelry) had their own considerations in terms of size. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

These jades are worth collecting
Whether ancient jade was worth collecting could be judged from the following aspects: 1. [Identification: This is the foundation of a collection. If you lack the ability to identify, it is easy to fail if you only rely on guesses.] One could obtain relevant knowledge by consulting and learning from experienced people. At the same time, one could refer to the items that the other party had sent out when making judgments. If they were mostly items from the collection or auctioned off, they were relatively reliable. If they were mostly so-called "collections", they might sell fake goods. Moreover, they had to be wary of those who used the collection or auction items as a cover to actually sell "private goods". 2. ** Selection **: - [Age: If you consider the return on investment, you must first determine the purpose of the collection.] If it was for investment purposes, the rarity and value of things in different eras were different. For example, there were differences in the scarcity of jade articles from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Middle Ages, and the High Ages. - ** Threads **: The returns are different for different topics, such as pearl strings, group pendants, animal carvings, seals, ritual vessels, etc. Even if the size of the jade is similar, there may be a difference in price due to different topics. Even if the same topic is different, the price may be 10 times different. 3. [Profit-making: I can understand and find good jade, but it's useless if I can't sell it or can't sell it at a suitable price.] Not only did collectors need to be able to buy high-quality scarce assets, but they also had to be able to hold them for a long time, because scarce high-quality assets tended to increase in value with market conditions (such as an increase in the money supply and other flooding situations). As for new jade, the appraisal focused on the authenticity of the jade, the quality of the jade, and the quality of the carving. A good jade material was the foundation for making jade articles, but the level of jade craftsmanship was also extremely important. A good jade article should have a beautiful and harmonious composition on the basis of a good jade material. The craftsmanship should be exquisite and the texture should be warm and smooth. When choosing jade, such as Hetian jade, jade and other "top-grade" jade, its hardness, moisture and clarity are important considerations. High hardness is more durable, moisture affects luster, and clarity makes jade look more vivid; At the same time, color is also an important aspect of the value. The purer the green color of jade is, the better it is. Hetian jade is top grade with suet white. However, each jade has its own unique beauty and should not blindly pursue high-priced colors. In addition, collecting ancient jade requires a sense of risk: 1. To have basic common sense and judgment, one could purchase authoritative reference books such as the Complete Collection of Jade Artifacts Unearthed in China for reference and comparison. 2. In the process of collecting, one should not be stubborn (not listening to expert opinions) nor impulsive (buying without thinking). 3. Not being swayed by fabricated stories (such as tomb raiding, ancestral heirlooms, etc.) was the key to determining the authenticity. 4. You have to have a certain degree of psychological endurance, because paying tuition fees (buying fakes or buying them at a high price) is inevitable. 5. After all, this was a hobby and there were risks involved. He could not invest in living expenses. 6. He had to humbly consult an objective and fair expert and not interfere with the expert's judgment. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Dongyi of the Shang Dynasty
The Shang Dynasty originated from a branch of the Dongyi clan. They thought they were the descendants of the Xuanniao clan. The people of Yinshang and Dongyi had similar totem beliefs, which were closely related to birds. Dongyi culture was one of the important sources of Chinese civilization. It originated from the Zhongshan Area and the Yishu River basin in Shandong Province. The Dongyi culture had gone through different stages of development since the Neolith Age, including the worship of bird totems, the development of craftsmanship and architectural techniques, the emergence of ritual systems, and the formation of early countries. The people of Yinshang and Dongyi were troubled by floods and often moved their capital cities, which contributed to their martial spirit. Scholars had different opinions on whether the Shang Dynasty was Dongyi or Huaxia. During the Shang Dynasty, the debate between the Chinese and the barbarians had not yet formed, and the pre-Shang Dynasty was mainly distributed in Hebei, but it was influenced by the Yueshi culture of Dongyi.
