True Seeing Eye Display.

One of these two bowls is an authentic chicken heart bowl from the Yongle period, worth about 90 million yuan.

The other one is a later imitation, which costs about four or five hundred yuan.

There is a huge difference between the true and false things, but I didn't expect them to be put together by these two middle-aged men.

However, it is easy to understand.

The Yongle Chicken Heart Bowl is a well-known item in the antique world.

Two years ago, a Yongle chicken heart bowl was sold at Christie's auction house for a high price of 80 million.

It is said that the bowl was bought by a foreigner at a flea market for 32 beautiful coins.

It can be said that I found a big bargain!

Since then, the antique world's admiration for the Yongle Chicken Heart Bowl has been growing day by day, and many people go to the antique market to look for chicken heart bowls with the dream of getting rich overnight.

However, there are only a few chicken heart bowls in existence, and in order to make money, counterfeiters take risks.

I made a lot of high-quality imitation chicken heart bowls.

Moreover, as identification technology improves, counterfeiting methods also improve.

Sometimes, it can be so realistic that it’s hard to tell the difference!

"Chicken heart bowl?" Lin Han raised his eyes and looked at the two middle-aged men.

It was the older, dark-faced man who nodded.

"Yes! As for what era it is from, I won't tell you. Lin Han, you should be able to tell it."

Lin Han gently picked up the authentic one and examined it carefully in his hand.

There is a heart-shaped protrusion on the outer side of the bottom of the chicken heart bowl. The bowl has a deep belly and a small foot. The glaze is plump and shiny, and it feels slightly heavy when held in the hand.

The whole bowl is white, with bluish-white lotus patterns painted from the bottom to the belly of the bowl.

The pattern is green with white, the colors are clearly layered, and it is cool and unique.

As for the fake one, it is exactly the same as the real one, and even more gorgeous than the real one.

However, the signatures on the two bowls are very different.

This one really shows [Made in the 17th year of Yongle]

The fake one shows [Made in the Yongle Period]

Lin Han couldn't help but laugh.

When identifying a Yongle chicken heart bowl, in addition to the body, glaze and shape, we must also consider the quality.

The most important thing is the signature.

All Yongle chicken heart bowls are signed with "Made in the Yongle Period"

Unless it's counterfeit.

Lin Han has been in the antique world for all these years, but he has never seen a signature like "Made in the 17th year of Yongle".

I think it is a rare authentic product signed by Liu Zi.

but……

The four-character signature on the Yongle Chicken Heart Bowl is a way to identify the authenticity of the product, and anyone with a little experience knows that.

Will these two middle-aged men in front of me think that this bowl with six characters signed on it is fake?

Lin Han felt relieved and gently put the two bowls back into the box.

Then he asked the man, "How are you going to serve these two bowls?"

The man looked at Lin Han inquiringly and picked up the fake bowl:

"Brother Lin Han, this is the Yongle Chicken Heart Bowl. It was sold for 80 million last year. Do you like it?"

Buzz!

When the people lying outside heard this, they started talking about it.

"What's going on? Are we going to have a big deal here today?"

"I don't think so. Just that small bowl, 80 million?"

"Does Lin Han have that much money?"

Chairman Liu snorted, "80 million is the price of one bowl, two would cost more than 100 million!"

"What?"

“Oh my God!”

"President Liu, tell me, are those two bowls real?"

Chairman Liu smacked his lips and said, "You can't see through the glass! Can something worth hundreds of millions be traded in a van?"

oh……

Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and continued to lean on the glass to look inside with great interest.

Perhaps it was because they were making too much noise, disturbing the two people inside.

The middle-aged man simply opened the car door:

"Go ahead and take a look! But I've made it clear in advance that you can't disturb Lin Han from watching things!"

Everyone was eager to do so and nodded in agreement.

At this time, Lin Han was holding the bowl with four characters signed on it, smelling and looking at it.

Someone whispered to President Liu: "What is Lin Han doing?"

"To identify porcelain, one must look, smell and taste. Looking means observing the glaze, patterns, drawings and signatures, and smelling means smelling whether it has been corroded or has been exposed to acid or alkali."

President Liu went on to explain: "As for quality, it is to look at the overall shape of the porcelain. Good porcelain has a certain temperament, just like a beauty..."

Lin Han couldn't help but give him a thumbs up when he said this: "The president is very knowledgeable!"

Lin Han turned to the middle-aged man and said, "Did you hear that? First of all, this thing of yours smells wrong. There are traces of acid corrosion. I guess it must have been aged..."

"Hey! How is this possible?"

The middle-aged man was exposed in public and naturally refused to admit it.

Lin Han pressed his hands, signaling him to shut up.

"Secondly, although the styles of these two chicken heart bowls are not much different, if you look closely, you will find that the lines are not smooth and they do not have the grandeur and blank space of the Yongle style."

this……

The two middle-aged men were speechless.

The people around cheered again.

Listening to Lin Han talk is really insightful!

Seeing that there was no hope of selling a pair of chicken heart bowls, the middle-aged man had to pin his hopes on the bowl with the six-character signature.

But……

How can it be authentic if it has only six characters on its signature?

"Then...Brother Lin Han, take a look at the other one. If you can afford the price, I'll give this one to you!"

Lin Han shook his head: "I won't take this even if you pay me. First, it can't hold rice, and second, it's not pleasing to the eyes!"

Ha ha ha ha!

The people around burst into laughter.

Lin Han had already picked up the bowl with the six-character signature and was looking at it carefully.

The middle-aged man no longer had the same spirit and arrogance as before, and said carefully:

"Although it is only six characters, look at the body, glaze and brushwork, it is not an ordinary thing!"

Lin Han did not deny him this time and nodded:

"Well, it should be a replica from the Republic of China."

The Republic of China's imitation antiques were highly skilled and in no way inferior to the originals.

Of course, the selling price will be greatly discounted.

The middle-aged man's brows were twisted into a knot:

"Brother Lin Han, how can there be such a good imitation from the Republic of China? It should be at least from the Qianlong period."

Lin Han showed him the edge of the bowl:

"How is that possible? Qianlong didn't close it like this. These are all imitations of Yongle from the Republic of China. They failed to draw a tiger but ended up drawing a dog. The imitation is not very good!"

"this……"

The middle-aged man was speechless.

Meeting someone like Lin Han who knows everything clearly is like a beginner meeting a master. He will be exposed and seen through in just two or three moves!

Chairman Liu and others outside the car couldn't help but nod.

"Is it really from the Republic of China?"

"Yes, the authentic Yongle will not use six characters to sign it! They are all four characters!"

Everyone sighed.

After all, they are in the shoes of the seller and can empathize more with the middle-aged men.

Among them, some people reminded middle-aged men.

"Lin Han has a very sharp eye. The man selling the inkstone just now was fooled and was picked up by Lin Han!"

"Yes! Can you be sure that this is really from the Republic of China?"

The middle-aged man hesitated when he heard this.

They came here today, bringing one real and one fake.

This is really a chicken heart bowl from the Republic of China with six characters on it.

The fake one has a four-character signature and is a modern imitation.

I originally wanted to sell this one from the Republic of China according to the style of Qianlong.

But Lin Han saw through it at a glance.

However, listen to what people say.

Lin Han is no simple guy.

"Then... I won't sell it!"
