In the eyes of the layman, the antique circle always exudes an unpredictable sense of mystery,
Antique shops differ from other industries in that antiques are not general commodities and require collectors to understand history.
Have artistic literacy, proficient in identifying counterfeits, dating, estimating prices, understanding and abiding by industry rules.
Collecting is increasingly showing the trend of "national movement", and more and more people are collecting in cities large and small. But now, the antiques in the antique market everywhere can be said to be a mixture of true and false, and if you want to find the real thing, you have to be a real connoisseur.
Where is the so-called master high?
The biggest difference between them and ordinary cultural relics experts and experts is that they have developed a set of theoretical systems that are derived from their own practice and have passed the test of practice. The master has a wealth of practical experience, which is a real kung fu that has been exchanged for a long period of market practice and buying and selling transactions, at a huge spiritual, intellectual and financial cost.
A piece of porcelain must not only identify the authenticity, but also break the generation, break the kiln mouth, and so on. The situation of artifacts being handed down, semi-handed down, and unearthed is very complicated due to the comprehensive influence of the environment, material and time. The master can not only grasp the commonality of the "old" of the real old cultural relics, but also distinguish the situation of various personalities and grasp the particularity.
For example, the situation of excavated cultural relics is diverse, and the southern excavations are different from those in the north, because the climate environment, humidity, and soil are different, the south is wet, and the north is dry. Collapsed graves are not the same as those unearthed in tombs that have not collapsed and are well sealed, because the former is buried in the soil or immersed in water, while the latter is in a closed environment.
Contrary to the novice going around giving lessons to people, the veteran will never judge other people's things and trading products, even if the people next to them are not sure to ask, do not respond more, silence is gold, close to the change. Never return. If you know that you have lost money at the time of payment, you insist on not returning it. If you return the goods, no one is willing to sell you something in the future, the credibility is greatly damaged, and people in the circle have to say that you "he can't eat the goods", which seems to be an understatement, but in fact, it is gritting its teeth. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer good things in the stalls, and some senior collectors and antique dealers are scornful of the stalls, and even think that the so-called "leak picking" is a fantasy today.
1. Come and go alone
Never publicity General masters visit the market, are alone, never say much, quick scan, first look at the beauty and then look at the era, quick browsing, fast judgment. Generally speaking, the instrument can not be asked for a price, such a person is often the top master, the seller must not let go, the price should be sincere, slightly lower than the market price, to ensure that you deal.
2. Unique vision
Never say much that many beginners are keen to learn jargon and black words, so that it will be revealed. And often the master never says much, does not speak black. The average seller knows what level you are based on what you say. When you pick up an item, experienced sellers know your level, while master buyers generally don't need to talk, much less use a magnifying glass.
All the people are feeling the stones to cross the river, words can not say death, even the master, can only say seven points, retain three points. We usually just say: I think it's right. Or: I don't think so. These are very careful judgments.
What a case in point
Let me tell you a story. A young man was arrested by the police for selling antiques because it involved the resale of cultural relics. The police took the antiques for the provincial cultural relics management department to identify, and the so-called experts determined that they were cultural relics, which was enough to sentence them for several years. The young man could not help it, told the police uncle that the things were actually made by his uncle, and then led the police to his uncle's house to see, the tools and raw materials for making antiques were still there. We can't imagine what experts doing appraisals would think when they hear the news, but there are a few police uncles who may not easily trust experts in their lifetime.
A very few experts also went to television and spoke in the treasure hunting program, so that the people could listen to it with relish. Ordinary people really believe that holding a broken cylinder can be on TV programs, really believe that this matter is also selected and selected, and finally experts look at it, worth eight million! Since then that person has been rich! What an absurd farce, folks. Is there really so much serendipity in the world? What's going on behind the treasure show? That's the real game. Ordinary people don't want to think about it, this matter is far away from ordinary people, far away from unimaginable.
There are also experts who "invented" the treasure instrument, which is very powerful, you put things into it like an X-ray, if there is no alarm, it is the real thing; if the alarm, it is a fake. Is there anything more nonsense under the heavens than this? Taking porcelain as an example, the porcelain of the Song Dynasty and today's porcelain are basically the same in terms of material, and the instrument test can only be responsible for the material, but cannot be responsible for the year, so what is this true and false identification result? Could it be that our antiques experts can already accurately define the half-life of a radioactive isotope to less than a hundred years?
Over the years, I have come into contact with antiques, heard stories, and encountered scams, which are simply more wonderful than fairy tales. There is no god in the antique industry, there is no all-powerful leading cadre who knows everything,
Your eyesight is not good, the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty was sold as a supermarket cup, and people just picked up the leak. People have good eyesight, play with knowledge reserves, and pick up leaks as a matter of course. If you have good eyesight, you can also pick up leaks. ——The antiques industry has always been a buy and leave, and there is absolutely no policy of returning and exchanging packages. You buy expensive, you ask me to return, then you buy cheap, will you come back to add money?
Those experts on the treasure hunting program, the mouth is eight hundred and twenty million, if they say the words can be immediately closed, you let them say it again? Sell him a 50% discount and don't hesitate. It is a pity that the people on the show are also their own people, and the people cannot see this result.
The art of war has clouds: those who know each other and know themselves will never lose a battle. True and false things, you must have seen a little, otherwise, there really is no chance. - Qin Shi Huang is not necessarily more able to fight than an ordinary Qin soldier, and actual combat experience is important.
