    Huang Shanyi turned the seal over curiously and said with some surprise: "It's actually my surname. It shouldn't be that easy to find, right?" He Lihang said with a smile: "Of course, after all, although Yuan's seal is more common,  But to find the surname you want, you have to rely on luck, and it is even rarer that the workmanship of Fang Yuan's seal is so exquisite. I also relied on connections to finally find Fang Yuan. " Huang Shanyi smiled and nodded.  , he admired the seal in his hand for a while and felt that he liked it very much.  Just when he was about to express his gratitude to He Lihang, he suddenly remembered that he also liked Wu Changshuo's Tianhuang seal very much, but there was something wrong with it, which made his emotions turn 180 degrees.  In this case, let Chu Chen take a look at it first, so as not to have problems in the end and affect his mood.  Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Old He, do you mind if I show it to Teacher Chu?" "Brothers should settle the accounts clearly!" He Lihang waved his hand, although he was full of content with his own things.  Confidence, but since the two are good friends, they must pay more attention to this aspect, otherwise if a problem occurs, it may affect the friendship between the two.  But then again, Chu Chen is so young, how good is his eyesight?  He was somewhat doubtful about this.  Afterwards, Chu Chen took over the seal.  To be honest, he had never seen this kind of copper yuan stamp with wrong silver before. If it was genuine, it would be worth a lot of money. ? ? After careful observation, the workmanship of the seal is indeed very exquisite, and the craftsmanship of staggered silver is also in line with the characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty, but when you see the copper show.  Chu Chen frowned slightly.  Seeing this situation, He Lihang became nervous. Is there something wrong with this seal?  It shouldn't be possible. I carefully selected this, so there will definitely be no problem!  Although I think so.  Because of this incident, he began to feel nervous. When Chu Chen finished the appraisal, he was so nervous that he didn't even use Mandarin, so he asked: "How is it?" Fortunately, this sentence was short, and Chu Chen's language skills were good.  powerful.  He understood it, and then said with some regret: "I don't think this seal is authentic." "How is that possible?" He Lihang was deeply doubtful of the results given by Chu Chen, and his expression looked a little gloomy.  Huang Shanyi was afraid that He Lihang's impatience would cause any misunderstanding, so he quickly said: "Old He, please listen to Teacher Chu's opinion first." He Lihang calmed down after hearing this.  Forced a smile, he said: "Teacher Chu, I would like to trouble you to tell me the reason!" "This is what it should be." Chu Chen said: "Speaking of which, this seal is definitely made well, but the rust color is different from  There are some differences between the genuine ones. Generally speaking, the patina of genuine antique bronze seals is mostly black or green, and appears to grow together with the original seal, which can protect the original seal.  , it looks unnatural. And most of them fall off as soon as you pick them up. "Just like your seal, the patina looks real, but it falls off if you move it a little bit. Please take a look" said Chu.  Chen stretched out his gloved left hand.  Everyone took a look and found that there was indeed some patina on the gloves.  And this is unlikely to happen with the real thing.  Chu Chen continued: "In addition to this, the oxidation or erosion of the counterfeit products is different from the genuine products in terms of weight, chemical composition and sound caused by qualitative changes. This is also the basis for judgment" It happened to be in the box  There was a genuine copper seal. Next, he used some small tests to compare it.  Everyone found that there were indeed some subtle differences.  When the facts were clear, He Lihang could only accept this result. However, he was a little confused about it and said: "Teacher Chu, I have a question for you. I also have some experience in the appraisal of seals. I can  I feel some old smell from this seal. What's going on?" Chu Chen nodded and said, "You are right. This seal does have some old smell. As for the reason, it is because it is from the late Qing Dynasty.  It was forged in the early Republic of China and has been passed down for nearly a hundred years. It is normal to have an old smell. " "In addition, seals like yours are actually not uncommon. In places such as Luoyang and Quancheng at that time,  Ancient seals are often unearthed, and most people who collect ancient seals seek to buy them in these areas. Therefore, counterfeiters take advantage of this opportunity to make them according to the style, size, and text of ancient seals, and then make them according to the forgery methods of bronze and jade.  It became old and many people were deceived. "At that time, antique dealers still had a way to sell fake ancient seals. For example, someone went to the antique store and told the boss that he wanted to buy a yuan stamp with the same surname as his own.  The boss then told him, "It's not available yet. I'll look for it for you."I know you.  " "Then the boss went to find the forger and asked him to forge a one-yuan stamp according to the buyer's surname.  After the fake seal was made, the boss handed it to the buyer and said that it took a lot of effort to buy one from someone else.  The buyer believed it and was grateful.  As a result, the boss sold it at a good price, and the counterfeiter also made a profit.  " "Due to this situation, many of the old Yuan seals that are popular today are forged in this way.  Possibly, the same is true for your Fang Yuan seal.  " After listening to Chu Chen's introduction, everyone felt that they had gained more knowledge. At the same time, they also lamented the pervasiveness of profiteers and forgers. Because of this seal, He Lihang also had a certain understanding and recognition of Chu Chen's appraisal level, so he took the  When he came down, he quickly asked Chu Chen to help him look at other seals. For Chu Chen, the identification of seals was not a waste of time. It didn't take him long to identify them all. As for the results of the identification, he was somewhat satisfied.  Speechless. ¡°Mr. He, did you choose all these seals?  " "Most of them are chosen by me" As soon as He Lihang nodded, Huang Shanyi said with a speechless face: "Old He, with your poor eyesight, you actually dare to choose by yourself?  You have forgotten what happened before" The year before last, He Lihang alone bought a Tianhuang frozen stone seal carved by Zhao Zhichen. The margin was "Ci Xian Zhuan Yu Tui'an". The seal was "Bolu Hanmo". Zhao Zhichen was the Qing Dynasty.  The people of this generation, whose names are Xianfu, Mu Sheng, and Baoyue Shanren, are famous for their calligraphy, painting and seal cutting. The landscape masters Huang Zijiu and Ni Yunlin, whose paintings of flowers, bamboos and stones have a Ming Dynasty atmosphere, are favored by laymen and junglers from all over the world.  It is one of the "Eight Masters of Xiling". This seal is made of the finest Tianhuang jelly material, which can be said to be one of the most transparent.  Virtue: "fine, clean, moist, greasy, warm, and cohesive". The patina is bright and pure in color, with very typical carrot patterns and red veins. Coupled with the excellent carving, this dish is pleasing to the eye and cannot be overemphasized.  Yes. Of course, this refers to the authentic one, and it was recorded in the "Ding Chou Jie Yu Seal". He Lihang took a closer look and saw that the size and shape were almost the same as the original seal, so he thought it was the original seal.  He happily bought the authentic piece in the seal. By coincidence, one day, He Lihang visited a collector. What he didn't expect was that the collector was actually the owner of the authentic piece.  He also saw the original in the collector's home. At that time, He Lihang didn't know about his imitation. He felt very strange when he saw the original, so he asked the collector about it.  I feel very strange that my seal has been authenticated by several experts. Is it possible that this seal has a twin brother? It is obviously impossible that He Lihang will have someone bring his seal with him.  After a comparison, I discovered that my seal looks like the original seal on the surface, but if you look at the artistic nature, you will find that the spirit and spirit of the seal are much inferior to the original seal.  Both are engraved with "Cixian Seal Yu Tui'an". At first glance, the two are very similar, but the vivid charm and lively brushwork of the original seal are not what He Lihang has.  The production of this fake seal is not very poor. This can be seen from the material used. Although it is a little worse than the original, it has to be said that it is a rare Tianhuang. If you don't distinguish it carefully, it will be completely different.  It can be seen that the person who created the fake seal is very clever. It is not too unfair for He Lihang to be caught in this kind of imitation. Hearing Huang Shanyi tell the story of his own embarrassment, He Lihang also felt guilty.  He couldn't help but blush, and then he said with some embarrassment: "This is all an old thing two years ago. After these two years of painstaking research, how can my eyesight be considered good?  Look at these seals from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. If any of them are fake, you should point them out!  Huang Shanyi spread his hands and said with a smile: "I'm not an expert. You should ask Teacher Chu this kind of question."  Seeing everyone looking at him, Chu Chen shook his head and said, "I think most of these seals have problems."  " He Lihang was stunned and exclaimed after hearing this: "What?  has a problem?  Most of it?  !  "Although this reality may be a bit cruel to He Lihang, Chu Chen continued to nod to confirm and explain some of the problems. "The seal cutting works of some artists since the Ming and Qing Dynasties represent the highest achievements of our country's seal cutting art.  Their seals are of extremely high aesthetic and appreciation value, just like the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, and are also treasures for collectors.??.  And as time goes by, the value of seal cutting works by famous artists that are gradually lost has doubled, making them rare.  And precisely because of this, it can be said that it is common for seals of famous Ming and Qing dynasties to be imitated by others. Many of them are the works of Wen Peng, He Zhen and Zhejiang School. It can be said that they are almost everywhere in the market.  , this sentiment is probably related to their great reputation and their early age.  Seals imitated in the name of seal masters in the Ming and Qing dynasties and in modern times are mostly stone seals, but some are made of jade or copper.  Some imitate the original works of famous artists and produce seals that are almost the same as the original ones, just like the seal He Lihang bought before.  Some use old materials to imitate the sealing styles of famous people and pass them off as works by famous artists.  These counterfeit seals not only imitate the original seal text and style, but also mostly burnt the seal stone to make it look old.  To identify such a seal, the main thing is to see whether it has the air of a famous artist.  For example, one of He Lihang¡¯s seals was the Shoushan stone seal carved by He Zhen.  He Zhen was a famous seal-cutting master in the Ming Dynasty, and his works were famous for their simplicity, freshness, elegance and simplicity.  People at that time praised him as "a famous player in modern times, the best in the country".  When Chu Chen commented on this seal, he said: "This seal looks weak, dull and lifeless in terms of both the seal and the seal. The seal stone is also made by later generations using fire, and the seal stone is forged with fire.  It can't be worn off after a long time. These all reveal the flaws in the disguise" "However, some seals that look like handmade seals are not intentionally forged by others." Chu Chen said: "This is like someone studying ancient times.  He did not intend to pass it off as an authentic work, but what he wrote was indeed on the same level as the famous one. This is called "following the ancients rather than pretending to be ancient." Some people copy the seals of famous people for personal gain, which cannot be compared with deliberate forgery.  Such works are mixed with famous seals, which makes it difficult for us to identify them. For example, this seal" After Chu Chen explained the problematic seals one by one, He Lihang felt like crying.  There were no more tears. Although the seal was not deliberately forged, which comforted him a little, the result still made him extremely depressed.  He said a little bit crazy: "How could this happen! I have carefully observed it countless times, how can I still make mistakes! This should be impossible!" Seeing that his old friend looked a little pitiful, Huang Shanyi stepped forward and patted him.  He put his shoulder on his shoulder and said after a few words of comfort: "You are not born with any talent in antique appraisal. In the future, you should let experts help you identify things. You are not short of this little money." "I just want to verify.  Let¡¯s talk about what I have learned Hey! I won¡¯t talk anymore!¡± He Lihang shook his head and let out a long sigh of disappointment.  At this time, Huang Shanyi asked: "Old He, there is something I find very strange. How did you get so many seals in just a few days?" "Actually, apart from these seals" Speaking of  He Lihang paused, picked out a few seals, and then said: "I bought the other seals from one person." "From one person?" Huang Shanyi was very surprised when he heard this.  He Lihang smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, that man is an old man. He said that he was going to immigrate. It was not convenient to take these seals out, and it was not convenient to collect them abroad. So he wanted to get rid of the seals. I was quite  I was so happy that I went to his house. I thought these seals were good, so I spent money to buy them. I didn¡¯t expect the result to be like this" (To be continued)?¡­
