In 2011, at the "Ancient Jade Auction" organized by Beijing Zhongjia International Auction Co., Ltd., the guests were at the door, and the colorful treasures were displayed one by one, attracting people's fiery eyes, everyone was holding their breath, waiting for the appearance of the last treasure, time passed for a while, with the introduction of the host, the last final treasure of the party was finally baked! This is the "Han Dynasty Qinghuang Jade Dragon phoenix pattern dressing table", with stools, the whole set is made of high-grade jade materials, and the price is up to 180 million yuan! However, most of the buyers seemed to be prepared and competed for bids, and after a fierce competition, the set of cultural relics was subsequently bought by an unknown buyer for 220 million yuan.
It also set a record for the most expensive transaction in the field of most expensive cultural relics in 2011, which widely attracted the attention of the society. Why do people believe so much in the preciousness of this dresser?
The original dresser, but by the famous treasure experts to provide proof, Zhou Nanquan, born in Guangdong in 1936, his name is very prominent, since 1972, Zhou Nanquan is a researcher of the Palace Museum, he is also a member of the Standing Committee of the China Collection Association Appraisal Committee, the head of the Jewelry and Jade Appraisal Team of the Beijing Oriental Collectors Association, and the chief expert of the jade category of CCTV's "Art Investment".
In the category of jade, Zhou Nanquan is the authority, this set of dressers, it is through his affirmation, born in the Han Dynasty, but also in black and white to show the appraisal certificate. With the affirmation of Zhou Lao, the identity of the Dresser in the Han Dynasty seems impeccable.
However, netizens found that something was wrong, how could the Han Dynasty have supporting stools? It turned out that before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Han Dynasty people mainly "sat low", and the formal occasion was similar to today's Japan, sitting on the knees, sitting on the hips, with both knees bent in front of the body, and the soles of the feet on the ground. As for the stool, it was slowly passed from the Hu people after the Sui and Tang dynasties.
Therefore, whether there is a stool in the Han Dynasty, from the perspective of historical professionals, can be regarded as a common sense problem, Zhou Nanquan was pushed to the cusp of the storm, in the face of everyone's questioning, the expert is still insisting: it is indeed a treasure of the Han Dynasty.
However, Wang Rumian, president of the Pizhou DaiBao Jade Industry Association, said that he had seen the dresser, and the manufacturer asked him to come over and ask him some questions about the design of the shape and pattern, and through this clue, the media found its producer: the owner of a jade shop surnamed Zhao from Pizhou, Jiangsu Province.
According to Boss Zhao, this dresser plus jade stool, a total of 2.2 million, took a year to assemble, completed in 2010, when he, just to buy valuable jade, cost millions, that is, later added millions of labor costs. Later, he sold this dresser, in the form of handicrafts, to a seller in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, and then he did not know where to go, as for this imitation of the Han Dynasty fake, how to sell at auction for 2.2 days, Boss Zhao is not known.
Obviously, this remark and Zhou Nanquan have their own opinions, but the auction company is only an intermediary agency, and there is no guarantee that the auction items are 100% true, and this dresser is true or false, and no one can decide. Supporting Zhou Nanquan is also Yao Zheng, director of the Jade Committee of the China Collectors Association, who also believes that "Zhou Lao did not have an eye", and also proposed: Han Dynasty
Jade stool
It is a "national treasure that shakes the world", 220 million is cheaper, and more than 1 billion is more than 1 billion. What do you think about that?
