Shallow enamel porcelain collection market is getting hot

Looking back at the collection market in 2012, it has to be said that it is in a quiet period of an era. At present, the industry generally believes that the collection auction market is expected to recover in the second half of 2013. The reason is based on the pre-judgment of the economic situation. For people who like to collect artifacts, but are tired of themes and have “cold collection” habits, a silent period is more conducive to the development of good collections. But in fact, the silent period is not silent, and even some "cold collections" have already been transformed from cold to hot, such as shallow colored porcelain.

Ten years ago, if the collection was shallow, it would not be a good investment. First of all, it must be ridiculed in the academic system. There was even an undecided contempt for taste. Why do you say this way? Because in the old view, the porcelain of the late Qing dynasty was not heavy for the world. What's more, it's a light, light-colored porcelain that is easy to understand. It is important to note that the light colored porcelain rose during the Tongzhi Emperor Guangxu period, basically in the context of the war of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Before and after more than 50 years, if they relax their years of existence, they are at most 70 years old and are immediately replaced by new pastels. This has historically been ignored in the history of porcelain. Moreover, because of its age and not so long ago, in the 1970s and 1980s, cultural artifact stores were innumerable such artifacts, so they were once regarded as “great goods”. However, the lightness and abundance of color may not be in line with people’s love of porcelain for its bright color, so for a long time it was natural to be considered “inflow”. About ten years ago, even a porcelain masterpiece, a porcelain plate, 5,000 yuan can start. This is a collecting act that the working class can also act as, naturally disdain for the capital.

However, Tao Zhugong had a cloud: People abandoned me and people took me away. This is the trick of getting rich through business. It is also the only way to collect things. Shallow enamel porcelain is not valued by people. Whether in the ups and downs of the blue and white flowers or the re-evaluation of high ancient porcelain, they all seem to be desolate, diverging, diversified, and feng shui continues to turn year after year. People are always looking for new highlights. . Now that the decade has passed, almost all of the light colored porcelain has increased by about 10 times. Although it is not at the same time as some contemporary art works, it is not at the same time. However, its entry threshold is low, risk is low, and its income is stable. It is an excellent "cold collection."

Nowadays, it is natural that there are reasons for the change from cold to hot. Favorite stories tell the story. If you can't tell a story, you won't get a high premium. It is very easy to tell a story with light colored porcelain. First, it was born in troubled times and survived for a long time. It is a kind of trickery that can attract people's interest. Second, it is indeed in the history of Chinese porcelain, with the popular quality of the text into the porcelain painting, poetry, calligraphy and painting with three sources of porcelain and porcelain, making the most essence of Chinese culture sentiment, and the combination of porcelain modeling art. After inheriting the past, it has its own characteristics. Thirdly, its biggest drawback is that it burns at low temperatures and the pigments are easy to fall off. This is especially true for the painted faces, but it brings an old and incomplete beauty. This kind of flawed beauty makes the value of refined products more likely to be worthwhile than pure products.

In the past two or three years, how did the light colored porcelain perform in the auction market? Can be a turning point in 2010. China's Guardian, Weibo International, Beijing Changfeng and other auction houses have launched the theme of light colored porcelain in 2010. In 2011, Tianjin Haitian and British Baolong also launched their own literary porcelain painting topics. Prior to 2008, Cheng Men, Jin Pinqing, and Wang Shaowei’s porcelain, beryllium, and paired cap tubes were between RMB 100,000 and RMB 150,000, and in 2012, they jumped to RMB 400,000 to RMB 500,000. In addition, the prices of other porcelain paintings such as Ren Huanzhang, Wang Hao, and Ma Qingyun are closely followed. On the occasion of the 15th anniversary of Suzhou Oriental on April 28th, 2011, Chengmen and his son teamed up to make a pair of bottles and sold for 840,000 yuan. Some of the unique types of shallow enamelware are even more sought after by the enamel ceramic enthusiasts. At the Changfeng auction on June 21st, 2012, a special square bottle was sold for 100,000 yuan, and there was no money. The flower bottle was abandoned with 75,000 yuan. On September 26th, Tianjin Haitian Yulan Huatang Special Session, two Wang Shaowei screens were sold for 1.2 million yuan. Shallow enamel porcelain in the text room because of the strong content of the text is even skyrocketing, in Tianjin Haitian, Li Mengdan large-caliber pen holder to 50,000 yuan price transactions. In October, at the British Baolong auction, many Chinese collectors fought fiercely, among which Chengmen Shanshui was sold for 496,600 yuan. The other artists' shallow and colorful porcelain also performed well.

In terms of private transactions, the modern porcelain version of the Yachang Art Forum has always been a barometer of the shallow colored porcelain trade. In March 2012, Jin Shishi's one-off hat made by the guests of Huang Shiling was sold at a price of RMB 400,000, setting the highest transaction price for the brightly colored porcelain cap barrel. In October, a pair of custom hat caps set a high price of 300,000 yuan at the Yachang Art Forum weekend auction. The breakthrough in one-piece, light-colored porcelain works has also become a reality in October 2012. Wang Shaowei made and Wang Fengchi’s 300 pieces of shallow colorful bottles sold at a high price of 1.2 million yuan, setting off a single light-colored porcelain trade. The highest record. In the zombie world war IQI movie network, although the faintly colored porcelain has become hotter, it has not experienced a large area of ​​****. Compared with the new pastel porcelain of the Yuan and Qing Dynasty and later, the price is actually very low. Looking at the future market, there is still a wave of upswings.
