A Qing Dynasty tri-color porcelain brush washer!
Wow! They start right off with an antique!
Xu Nanxing was also surprised to find that this brush washer was actually a genuine one!
She also took a special look at the detailed information of this brush washer, and yes, it was indeed an object from the Qing Dynasty!
Xu Nanxing had also previously improved his skills in identifying antiques and had accumulated a certain amount of knowledge about antiques.
This three-color craft is a type of porcelain, and three-color means that on the same object, basic glaze colors such as yellow, green, and white or yellow, green, blue, ochre, and black are used simultaneously and alternately to form a colorful artistic effect.
"Sancai" actually means colorful, not just three colors.
The most famous tri-color porcelain is "Tang Tri-color", which is praised as "the treasure of oriental art" and "the splendor of the prosperous times". "Tang Tri-color" is extremely famous and is therefore well-known both at home and abroad.
After the Tang Dynasty, there were successively "Song Tri-color", "Liao Tri-color", "Ming Tri-color", "Qing Tri-color" and other tri-color porcelains, which are also very famous.
Of course, the one with the highest collection value is the "Tang Sancai".
If the item being auctioned today was "Tang Sancai" porcelain, it would definitely shock the entire collecting community.
However, this auction had a genuine antique on display right at the beginning, so it looks like there is something special about this auction!
However, if you think about it carefully, this auction is held during the Chinese New Year after all!
It is normal to select some of the best things that have been kept in the bottom of the box and put them up for auction.
Oh wow! Xu Nanxing is now looking forward to the items at today's auction even more!
There should be quite a few items in today’s auction that are rarely seen on the market!
It seems like I came to the right place this time!
Sure enough, as soon as this "Qing Dynasty Tri-color" came on the stage, many experienced guests at the scene immediately saw the value of the items in this auction.
According to the usual practice of auctions, the truly precious items will be placed at the end, and the items before them are basically ordinary items.
Because the host emphasized that this "Qing Dynasty Tri-color" piece had an appraisal certificate issued by an expert, with the expert's endorsement, many people became interested in the first piece of auction, the Qing Dynasty Tri-color porcelain brush washer.
After all, everyone knows that the antique industry is very complicated. Although these high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen like to collect antiques, they don't want to be suckered and buy fakes. If they buy fakes, they will not only lose money, but will also be ridiculed by people in the circle.
People in the circle are often ridiculed for buying fake antiques. This is a loss of face and dignity, and no one would like that!
Therefore, over time, it becomes particularly important to have the endorsement of experts!
The reputation of these prestigious appraisal experts also rose, and they were sought after by high-ranking officials and celebrities who liked to collect antiques.
At high-end auctions like these, which are led by people of status, many aspects will be done in detail and in detail, for example, issuing appraisal certificates for antiques is one of their measures.
This move will certainly make their auction more authoritative!
In this way, the appraisal expert and the auction house can be said to have achieved mutual success!
This will allow many interested bidders below to participate in the auction with confidence.
However, Xu Nanxing doesn't think that these so-called experts are incapable of making mistakes.
Haven’t many so-called experts in modern times made mistakes?
The antique business has been fraught with dangers since ancient times. Many of the counterfeiting methods have been passed down from generation to generation, and are even constantly improved from generation to generation. However, the identification capabilities of these so-called appraisal experts may not necessarily improve accordingly.
Therefore, Xu Nanxing believes more in his own abilities, which is much more "authoritative" than those so-called experts!
The auctioneer also gave a detailed introduction to the several appraisal experts invited this time. As expected, these experts are all very famous experts in Hong Kong today!
Many guests who have some knowledge of the antique industry used to spend a lot of money to hire these experts to help them identify the authenticity of antiques when they bought them, so they are familiar with several experts in the antique business.
When he heard that the auction would invite these appraisal experts, he felt relieved. He also briefly introduced the authoritative identities of these experts to other people who were not familiar with this industry.
The atmosphere at the scene also became lively.
Seeing this, the auctioneer immediately announced the start of the auction, and the guests who were interested in the brush washer began to raise their hands and bid.
Xu Nanxing took a quick look and saw that there were quite a few people holding up signs to participate in the auction.
The host also very professionally announced the bidding prices of these bidders one by one.
"The guest at table 8 bid 110,000."
"The guest at table 17 bid 120,000."
"The guest at table 8 bid 150,000."
"The guest at table 21 is bidding 160,000. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"
…
Xu Nanxing took notice and realized that this female auctioneer was really amazing. She had never made a mistake in the order of bidding.
If you don't have these skills, you really can't be an auctioneer at an auction!
Anyway, Xu Nanxing was confused by the chaotic scene.
She also admired the female auctioneer named Zhang Jiayu!
There were quite a few people participating in the auction, but Xu Nanxing never raised a sign.
Although Xu Nanxing was sure that this brush washer was authentic and a real antique, she did not intend to participate in the auction.
Because this brush washer is only an item from the late Qing Dynasty, its collection value is relatively average to her, especially since the auction price is already not low and the cost-effectiveness is not high, so she did not plan to participate.
