It is often seen that jade friends are discussing happily around a 50 times macro map, and even more argue until they are red in the face, and in the end, there is no conclusion.
In fact, trace identification is very reasonable, by enlarging the traces or shell, to find whether it is in line with the characteristics of the real shell. But the premise is that you really understand the macro characteristics of the real product, if the kung fu is not enough, it is easy to get lost under the high magnification, which is what I want to communicate with the jade friends.
To get an artifact, you must go from large to small, from far and near, first feel the overall shape, whether it is in line with the aesthetics of the craft, and whether it is in line with the background of the times at that time. On this basis, observe the characteristics of the ornament and feel the smoothness of the lines. For example, the simplicity of the Shang Dynasty's double yin and yang, the rigidity of the folding iron line, the exquisite slope of the Western Zhou, the tension of the Warring States Jade Dragon, and the sharpness of the eight swords of the Han Dynasty.
Then feel the Qin color, the color should enter the jade muscle, can not float on the surface, qin color naturally spread, there are thick and light, there are dark and shallow, such as sunset, brilliant and colorful. The phosgene of ancient jade is also very important, which must be experienced with heart when getting the utensils.
With the above identification, combined with a magnifying glass, observing macro features, you can help confirm the new and old things. Therefore, the identification of ancient jade is in a logical order, and the most feared thing for novices is to stare at macro observation, and it is often easy to get lost.
