近期,英国赫特福德郡一对夫妻意外发现长期用来挡门的木筒,竟是来自中国乾隆年间的古董,用整块紫檀木雕刻而成,市场保守估值3万英镑。为了买一辆新车,这对夫妇决定通过拍卖行将木筒拍卖。最终一位中国买家出价18万英镑成交。这个木筒高24厘米,产于公元18到19世纪清朝乾隆年间,用一整块紫檀木雕刻而成,应是用来放置毛笔的笔筒。笔筒外面雕有百子图,雕工十分精细。 Recently, a couple in Hertfordshire, England, accidentally discovered that long-term use to block the wooden barrel, actually came from China’s Qianlong years of antiques, carved from a piece of rosewood, the conservative valuation of 30,000 pounds market. In order to buy a new car, the couple decided to auction the logs through the auction house. Finally a Chinese buyer bid 180,000 pounds deal. The wooden barrel 24 cm high, produced in the 18th and 19th centuries during the Qing Dynasty Emperor Qianlong, carved from a single piece of rosewood, should be used to place brush pen. Carved outside the pen holder of a hundred plans, carving is very fine.
