Nowadays, living conditions are better, and many people fall in love with collecting. On the afternoon of December 25th, China Purple Art and Shanghai Xinmin Auction House held a treasure collection and exchange meeting of "Expo Four-Square Elegant Charm Appreciation".
However, the reporter found that many collectors have entered a misunderstanding, often hoping to achieve the goal of "getting rich overnight" through a collection.
Walking into the treasure exchange meeting, it has been full of collectors from all over the country, some of them pushed the trolley box to come, took out their own "treasure" at the bottom of the box, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, jade, miscellaneous items and other categories of various dynasties, so that the teachers and staff on the scene opened their eyes.
Unfortunately, Gao Ashin, an appraisal expert in the ceramic group of the China Collectors Association, said realistically that everyone's enthusiasm for collection is particularly high now, and the majority of counterfeits that can be simulated account for, and the knowledge of collectors needs to be further improved.
A collector from Jiangxi brought large bags of collectibles, from porcelain vases to various coins, accompanied by his daughter. What makes the appraisal expert cry and laugh is that his ancient coins are well-made at first glance, almost the same as the souvenirs issued by the bank, but they are imitated into ancient copper coins, silver dollars, etc.; and a collector from Guangdong, he has a study of his own collection, but once the treasure experts identify that his ancient paintings are simulated, he suddenly wants to argue with the experts again, and he does not want to leave for a long time.
After all, some collectors spend thousands, or even tens of thousands of yuan, on collecting. In fact, how much value is the collection of an ancient painting and a work of art, the personal understanding is different, do not have to be too true, may wish to walk more and see more, listen to the views and evaluations of other experts.
Collecting culture and art involves history, life, craftsmanship and technology of various ages, etc., if you start from the perspective of having a cultivating interest, you may be more relaxed and relieved.
It is also necessary to remind individual collectors that "pie will not fall from the sky", and it is almost impossible to find an ancient unique piece nowadays.
