How to identify ancient cultural relics porcelain

Glazed red sea water, white plum vase, purple enamel, broken branches, lotus vase, colorful golden sea water dragon pattern plate and glazed red sea water dragon pattern jar have always been the biggest "threshold" for beginners. Now, we can try the "six-look identification method" created by some collectors. Look at the shape Ancient porcelain has different shapes in different dynasties, which can be judged from the shape of porcelain in many cases. Second, look at the quality of the fetus. Porcelain of different ages has great differences in fetal quality. Third, look at the patterns. The decorative patterns of works in different times also have their own characteristics. Fourth, look at money. The bottom of some ancient porcelain is printed with a brush, and the writing style of each dynasty is different. You can also identify the age and value of an ancient porcelain from the brush strokes. Fifth, look at the craft. When collecting, we should not only look at the age and shape of this porcelain, but also the level of craftsmanship is an important indicator of its value. For example, the Yingqing Bowl in the Northern Song Dynasty was burned upside down, so the bottom of the bowl was marked. But in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was burned (the bottom of the bowl was facing up, one on top of the other), so there was a "mangkou" on the side of the bowl. Therefore, most of the bowls in the Southern Song Dynasty were edged. The bowls used by the imperial court were edged with Phnom Penh, while those used by rich families were edged with silver, while those used by ordinary people could only be edged with copper. When collecting, we can infer the identity of the former owner of porcelain from the residual materials used in these bowls, so as to determine its value. Sixth, look at the feel. The so-called feel refers to the feeling that collectors play with when buying these porcelains, such as whether the feel is round and smooth. It is said that some truly experienced collectors can estimate the authenticity and value of an antique just by rubbing it in their hands for a while.
