How to identify the authenticity of teapot

It is one of the most important bases for our collectors to identify the teapot, and it is also the place where counterfeiters are most likely to make fakes. Therefore, it is necessary for collectors to know the characteristics of the teapot abstract in case they buy fake pots. Before introducing the characteristics of teapot, we should first understand three aspects of money fraud. The real teapot is fake. After textual research, it is believed that the teapot was made by people of a certain era, but for some reason, the producer forgot to carve it, and then the owner carved it specially in order to improve or conveniently show the identity of the teapot. The real fake pot, the seal of the pot maker was inherited and adopted by others after his death, but due to the limited production level, the inheritor often failed to reach the original author's style scale, which shows clues; Fake pot, this is the method usually used by counterfeiters.

As a guide to distinguish authenticity, it should be printed first. A superb teapot work is a symbol of the creator's artistic value and social status, and also represents the economic value of the work. It has always been known that pot masters and famous artists are very particular about the knowledge of cymbals printed by modern arts and crafts artists, and printing with cymbals also involves the artistic accomplishment of producers, which can be seen from the kung fu outside the pot. Most of the seal cutting used by service artists and their ancestors were made by epigraphy masters. The seal itself is a work of art. It is difficult for ordinary counterfeiters and pseudo-authors to enter the truth in their works, and it is not difficult for connoisseurs with certain artistic accomplishment in epigraphy to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood. At the same time, two exquisite stone prints were carved, the same style, and they could not be self-made to completely simulate the traces of stone knives. However, most of the purple sand seals are engraved, but they must be reprinted at the bottom of the pot, covered and climbed up, and the stone knife marks will be exposed. Appreciators and collectors can only discover the authenticity of seal style after careful consideration. Some fake rubbings are easier to calculate the authenticity of rubbings from the burning shrinkage of the shape and size of the printed matter.

Every producer has his own preferences and habits, which can only be understood and difficult to explain. However, as long as every connoisseur and collector makes a special study of the works of every master, artist and other authors, they can also find the experience of * * *. A truly exquisite work, every author will give it a unique mark that is not easy to find, and these marks can only be distinguished by the original producer. Recently, there has been a new trend in the art of teapot: the producer personally carved the names of some lending rooms and made the year and number of the pot names. Although these pot inscriptions are not the best stone carvings, they can also provide collectors and appreciators with a more scientific and practical basis for authenticity identification.

The appreciation method of seal cutting and the ability to identify collections are an important art subject with strong comprehensiveness for pot art lovers. It can only be said that judging a work from the authenticity of seal cutting is an important department of appreciation method. In order to truly collect a fine purple sand art, interested collectors and collectors must carefully choose the collection channels and agents, or directly buy and customize the high-level special art works of "Fiona Fang brand" from the producers, which is the guarantee channel for every modern ceramic collector and connoisseur, artistic value and economic value.

Masters of pot making in the past dynasties paid great attention to the use of seals, and their brushwork not only showed high artistic accomplishment, but also was quite harsh on the layout and form of seals, which was an important factor in distinguishing brushwork. In detail, the style of famous artists generally has the following six characteristics:

1, the seal is exquisite. The seals of famous artists, whether they are made by themselves or invited by famous artists to act arbitrarily, all have certain artistic taste. Fake seals are hard to reach this level, and they are stagnant and unremarkable.

For the pot cover, it is located at one side of the inner hole of the pot cover; Used at the bottom of the pot, usually in the middle position; Used of handles, usually located under the ampulla tip; Used for ampulla and at the end of poetry and painting. Proper use position plays a decorative role in the pot to a certain extent. On the contrary, if the pot is not engraved with poems and paintings, it must not be done by a famous artist if you just sign your name in the middle of the pot belly.

4. The size of the money is appropriate. The size of the carving and seal is in harmony with the pot itself. The size of money is in harmony with the size of the pot, that is, the big money in the pot is large and the small money in the pot is correspondingly small; The size of the money is in harmony with the part where the money is located; The money at the bottom is bigger than the money on the cover and the handle. On the contrary, it is likely to be a fake.

5, the description of money, the seal is moderate. The brushwork of the famous pot depicts the overall harmony and unity, with uniform stamping force and consistent depth.

6. Harmonious style. The style of the famous handmade teapot is often in harmony with the style of making it, and is often the same as the author's aesthetic taste and interest. Generally speaking, exquisite works are beautiful and ingenious; Simple and unrestrained works, rough and old-fashioned; A dignified and steady work with a smooth seal.
