How to distinguish the real from the fake?

The identification of ceramics can be roughly divided into: comprehensive identification of vessel shape, fetal quality, enamel, painting, production process, and payment. It is not an overnight effort, you should read more books, see more real objects, make more comparisons, and slowly enrich your experience!

The History of Chinese Ceramics is a very good book and a must-read for those who like ceramics! Break a leg!

Now high-grade ceramics can only be listened to, colored, whether the workmanship is fine, facing the sun to see whether the tire inside is white, whether the glaze is flawless, (generally glazed tears are also defective products) whether the payment is regular. If a set of products are the same, their height, mouth edge, foot and painting, glaze color are the same.

Hello, how to identify the authenticity of tiles: 1Look at the sign on the reverse side:

On the back of the tile, there is usually a manufacturer's brand logo, and the logo is clear, if there is no logo, the logo is wrong, not clear, it is likely to be a fake brand, fake tile. 2.Look at the surface texture:

The quality of real brand tiles is relatively good, you can look at the texture of the surface, if the surface is smooth, there are no cracks, chips and other problems, it is a real tile; On the contrary, if there are dark cracks and many chips, it is likely to be a fake tile. 3.Water test:

The water absorption rate of high-quality tiles is lower, and the reverse is higher, and a few drops of water can be dropped on the reverse side of the tile, if it spreads quickly, it means that the tile is likely to be fake. 4.Knock on the tiles:

When buying tiles, you can knock on the tiles, if the sound is crisp and loud, it means that the quality of the tiles is very good, it is a real tile, on the contrary, if the sound is dull, the quality will be bad, it may be a fake brand tile. 5.Look at the size of the tile:

Real brand tiles, each size and thickness are consistent, horizontal and vertical liquid is absolutely disadvantageous, and it is easy to align when paved; Due to poor workmanship, fake tiles are likely to be of different sizes, and the gaps will be crooked and twisted when paved, which is not good-looking. 6.Look at the packaging:

Tiles will have packaging, the packaging has manufacturers, **, factory address and other information, if the packaging information is incomplete, it must be fake tiles; There are also fake tiles with brand packaging information, but the name is similar to the real brand, or there is a word difference, so you should take a closer look.

How to identify the authenticity of ceramic tiles: There are some ways to inspect tiles under the bridge mill: 1

The outer packaging is firm, with specifications, color number, **, production date, factory address and other information. 2.The bricks of the inner sensitive lifting bucket are neatly arranged and there is a protective film to prevent breakage.

3.Random inspection of ceramic tiles, uniform glaze surface, consistent texture and pattern of answers. 4.

The back of the two tiles is close and evenly contacted. 5.Pull out a tile and place it on a flat countertop with no warping at the corners.

6.Tap the tile with a hard object and the sound is crisp. 7.

Those who seem to have rough edges in paintings or patterns, those with thin porcelain enamel, and those whose paintings are concise and monotonous and not rich enough are underglaze colors.

Before buying, you can first carefully touch the surface of the ceramic tableware or handicraft with your hands to see if there is a concave feeling. If you feel convex and concave, and you can see the uneven surface of the pattern and color with the naked eye, and there is a sense of friction on your hand, you can conclude that it is glaze colored porcelain. Because the glaze color this product is made of ceramic color paper pasted on the glaze or painted directly with pigment on the surface of the glaze, because the baking temperature does not reach the melting temperature of the glaze, so the pattern, the picture can not sink into the glaze, touch the uneven difference with the hand to grip the sense of obvious, when the naked eye observes, the surface of the product is uneven, although the pattern has a three-dimensional sense, but the feel is not good.

If the surface of the product is visually smooth, looks like a glass luster, can not touch the uneven pattern, smooth as glass, then, it should belong to the glaze color or underglaze color. After careful identification, it can finally be determined whether it is a mid-glaze color or underglaze color.

But even if the economic conditions allow the situation, the collector should adhere to the principle of less and fine, because the ceramic handicrafts belong to the display and furnishing items, the practical value is very small, more is useless, only to buy good, the famous ceramic handicrafts, look pleasing to the eye, cherish and collect the interest, the collection can have the potential and value of preservation and appreciation. In addition, when purchasing ceramic handicrafts, it is necessary to carefully see the "hukou" of the porcelain, which roughly includes: the origin of porcelain handicrafts, the hall number of the production unit or kiln site, the name or pen name of the painting craftsman, the signature and seal of the payment, the virtual rock painting or the date of production, etc., so as to maintain and appreciate the value.

The style on the ceramic refers to the bottom or other parts of the utensils, carved, scratched, printed or written to indicate the age, origin, hall name, personal name, use and auspicious words and other contents, and there are also some patterns on the bottom or body of the vessel. Because the content, format, font, calligraphy and other aspects of the style have distinctive characteristics of the times, therefore, it has a non-negligible role in the dating of ceramics, the determination of the kiln mouth and the identification of authenticity, and is an important part of ceramic identification.

For investors who are not very wealthy, you can buy small color plates, small vases, small color pots, and tea sets, wine sets, stationery, etc., which are both furnishings and practical. The design of this kind of ceramics, if it meets the three requirements of image beauty, good taste and deep connotation, it is a high-grade ceramic art work, and it still has value preservation and appreciation value.

How to distinguish the authenticity of ancient ceramics First of all, we should start with the tire glaze: the glaze of the genuine product is thicker, unevenly distributed, has slurry, and the glaze is greasy. The tire blanks are all hand-drawn blanks, and there are sand particles in the tire soil"Hard"Feel; The fake glaze is thin and smooth, showing thief light, no slurry feeling, and unnatural.

The carcass does not have the feeling of containing sand grains, and it is"Soft and wet"condition. In addition, the place where the genuine unglazed exposed tire is dry, and the place where the fake unglazed exposed tire is present"Wet"shape, can not present the vision of the integration of the glaze. The second is from the ornamentation:

The genuine ornamentation looks like it is sinking under the glaze, and the painting technique is casual and natural, with a sense of movement, and you can see deep and light colors in the strokes of the ornamentation. The ornamentation of the fakes seems to float on the glaze, the painting technique is dull, unnatural, and without movement, the strokes are advection and stagnant, and the colors are not divided into shades. Three look at the glaze:

The glaze of the genuine product will have uneven thick and uneven places, less bubbles, and uneven distribution. The glaze of the fake is thin, the distribution is extremely even, and the bubbles are relatively dense. Fourth, look at the footlet:

Due to the weathering of the age, the real tire foot will form uneven uneven pits, and the overall color is natural, dry and uniform. The utensils that are burned on the pads are more or less stained with kiln sand at the feet. The feet of the fake will appear too dark and old, and the whole will not be unified, showing that the tire glaze is separated"Wet"Feel;

There is no kiln sand on the feet. Fifth, see if it is available"Excavators"or"Dispenser"characteristics. This requires a magnifying glass to distinguish the real from the fake.

Sixth, there is an obvious concave and convex feeling at the gathering place of the genuine glaze, and there is a situation of continuing to open the piece, forming a glaze layer from the inside to the outside"Borneol pattern"。Fakes are chemically treated, sniff the inside of the product with your nose, and have a pungent smell. It can also be chemically identified.

Seventh, it is necessary to synthesize, investigate, and study in many aspects to determine the authenticity of the artifact, and it is not possible to arbitrarily draw conclusions based on just a few characteristics.
