Shenhao Starts With Antique Treasure Appraisal

At this time, a brand new square cylindrical stone appeared on the plate.

The color is very different from the previous light yellow. The color is darker and the texture seems to be more transparent.

Not only that, the surface of this stone is still engraved with patterns, which are also figures in mountain scenes, basically consistent with the previous patterns.

"Mr. Song, I don't know who sold this stone." Li Tianming smiled slightly, "He may think it is a fake Tianhuang stone carving, but the real thing is actually hidden in the outer skin."

"Alas!"

Song Zhuojie still had some of the airs he had before, like a child who had discovered a fun toy.

Song Zhuojie couldn't help but take the newly reborn Tian Huang Stone in his hand and stroke it first. It felt great, cool and smooth.

The size of this Tianhuang stone, even though a layer of outer skin has been scraped off, is still very impressive.

Tian Huangshi of this size is definitely rare in the world!

Then, Song Zhuojie scratched the surface of Tianhuang Stone with his nails, and no more powder fell off.

Song Zhuojie shook his head and said with a smile: "This time it turned out to be true. It has made me depressed for so long. I really... I really didn't expect such a mystery."

Song Zhuojie looked very excited, as if he had lost his wallet and found it again.

He took the Tianhuang stone and looked at it carefully, and said to Shen Xiuxiu: "Xiuxiu, look, this carving is much more detailed than the one just now. The knife work is extraordinary, but I don't know which famous artist it was."

Shen Xiuxiu pursed her lips and smiled: "Uncle, don't just be happy, you haven't thanked Li Tianming yet."

Song Zhuojie suddenly understood and quickly held Li Tianming's hand: "Xiuxiu is right. I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, I would have been depressed for a long time. Besides, I might have given this thing away casually." You can’t give it to anyone, and it would be a huge loss!”

Li Tianming said: "Don't thank me, I just saw it by chance. I was just like you before, I just thought it was a rough stone of talc powder."

"You think it's strange, how come your eyesight is so good!"

"Uncle, let me tell you, even my dad has been praising Li Tianming, saying that he is the most talented person among the younger generation in appraising antiques!" Shen Xiuxiu said with a smile.

"Oh? So powerful..."

At this time, Song Zhuojie realized that he had underestimated the young man in front of him before.

Seeing that Song Zhuojie was in a good mood, Li Tianming took the opportunity to say, "Mr. Song, actually I came here this time to let you see a few objects."

Song Zhuojie was stunned: "What object?"

"Wood carving."

Song Zhuojie immediately became interested: "Okay, show it to me quickly."

Li Tianming nodded, immediately went out to greet Dong Hao, and moved the box containing the four wooden sculptures into Song Zhuojie's study.

Li Tianming first took out two works of Jiang Xiangtao's grandfather and placed them on the desk.

One is of ancient pines on the cliff, and the other is of dragons and tigers leaping.

Song Zhuojie's eyes lit up after seeing it.

You know, the carvers of these two wood carvings are much more advanced than the wood carvings in his study.

Generally speaking, they look like they are judging each other, but their appearance and spirit are different.

Song Zhuojie picked up the dragon and tiger leaping and looked at it carefully. He obviously liked it very much.

"Tianming, this is really a good thing. Look at the carving work. It's definitely not made by a machine, it's purely hand-carved."

"Mr. Song has a good eye. This is handmade wood carving, and it uses high-quality walnut wood."

Song Zhuojie nodded, picked up the ancient pine tree again, looked at it and said, "Tianming, can you turn it around? I want to keep it."

"Mr. Song, don't worry, please take a look at these two items."

Li Tianming said as he placed two other wooden sculptures passed down from Jiang family's ancestors on the desk.

One is a unicorn beast, and the other is a child riding a bull.

When Song Zhuojie saw it, his expression became solemn. He quickly picked up the child riding a bull and looked at it carefully, and touched it again and again.

Li Tianming knew that Song Zhuojie was checking the authenticity of the patella.

After watching the children riding the bull, I picked up the Qilin Beast and inspected it in the same way.

"These two things are not new, at least they were made in the Qing Dynasty..." Song Zhuojie came to the conclusion.

"Tianming, tell me, make a price, and I'll take all four of these items!"

Li Tianming smiled slightly, this was the effect he wanted.

When Li Tianming selected wood carving "samples" at Jiang Xiangtao's house, he specially selected a few wood carvings that were very dazzling in terms of carving work and shape.

Anyone who likes to collect wood carvings will be impressed by their exquisite carvings and unique charm.

The skill of hand-made wood carving has gradually declined since the advent of machine carving.

It's not easy to find purely handmade wood carvings nowadays, and it's even harder to find wood carvings of the Jiang family's level.

Therefore, Li Tianming is not afraid that Song Zhuojie will not be tempted.

"Mr. Song, I sell these things on behalf of my college classmates. You can decide on the price."

"My college classmate has been a wood carver for generations. To be honest, he still has over a hundred wood carvings like this in his home."
