Chapter 424 Hawkeye

At the scene of the appreciation meeting, three old experts called Leon Williams really shocked other people present.

Who is this person who was able to gain the respect of the three experts?

Tina was the first to speak.

She almost jumped up from the viewing table.

"Master Williams? Is he a master?"

Tina exclaimed, she felt surprised that three old experts over 50 years old would call Leon Williams, a young man in his twenties, master.

Was the master so cheap?

Of course, she did not know that Leon Williams now had quite a reputation and status in the field of antiques in Texas.

Indra Wibowo has introduced him to the Texas Antiques Association and he had a good relationship with the local cultural relics department. Because of his outstanding cultural relics identification ability, he has gradually established a prestigious name in the industry.

He helped the local cultural relics department crackdown on more than 100 fakes and solved a lot of problems for the local cultural relics cause.

"Of course he's a master. Little girl, you mustn't be rude!"

An old expert glared at Tina and the conversation suddenly became harsh.

"What's the matter with you? He is just a driver who drives for his boss. How can he become a master of appraisal in a twinkling of an eye?" Tina was still very confused.

"Master Williams is the folk antique appraisal god. Many local experts with the professional background are not as good as him in antique appraisal so he must be called a master." Another veteran expert explained with a serious expression.

At that moment, Tina had to believe it. After all, even the local experts said that Leon was a master and she was not able to find a reason to refute it. She could only listen to how Leon Williams would identify her small blue and white jar.

Leon stood up, went to the expert's appraisal desk, and held the small blue and white jar bought by Tina for 1 million dollars in the palm of his hand and looked at it.

Then he said, "This small blue and the white jar is well made. The bottom of the flint is red and the blue glaze is painted on it. You can't find fault with the fine painting skills."

As soon as the words were over, Tina was reassured.

But Leon suddenly said, "But this picture, matched to this vase, looks abrupt. The ancient craftsmen have exquisite painting skills and the images of the characters are very good. Although the various figures painted in the world are not the same, some are painted as heroic chivalrous images, some are gentle images. No matter what kind of painting, the person who beheaded the demon is generally impressed by the immortal style and exuberant sword immortals in people's minds. But, the demon chopper on this vase looks tangible but godless and there is no doubt about the fake."

Leon's words immediately awakened the three experts.

When the three men listened to Leon's words, they were all enlightened.

"That's a good point. The person who kills the demon is the representative of the famous immortal and he must be like an immortal."

"I really didn't notice this just now but now I understand that. Master Williams's observation is too meticulous!"

"Indeed, the demon chopper on this vase does not look like an immortal at all but is a little too handsome. There is still no small difference in aesthetics between ancient and modern people."

The three experts always felt that something was wrong before but they were not able to explain it clearly, a word from Leon solved their doubts.

"No way! You identified it wrong! You can't conclude that this vase is a fake based on this alone!" Tina said hurriedly.

After all, she stole it with her sister's money, bought it for 1 million dollars and she planned to give it to her sweetheart tomorrow night. If it was a fake, she would cry to death!

"Of course, this vase is not the only one. This vase is the foot of ancient times with a modern imitation blue and white jar attached to it. A key basis for identifying ancient porcelain is to look at the bottom of the porcelain because the birthplace of porcelain cannot be changed, it is the same as the age. The bottom of porcelain is also made in different ways because of different ages."

"Many people will walk into such a misunderstanding, thinking that the bottom is the real thing but they do not know that since ancient times, imitation has always existed and the technology of counterfeiting is constantly improving. The bottom of this vase can be determined to be the bottom of blue and white but it is a fake on top."

"However, about this small blue and white jar, I have seen the real thing. It was first given to foreign countries as a gift and then flowed back to our country. It is now in a private museum in New Jersey."

There was a lot to say about the porcelain collection but Leon didn't want to say any more tonight.

Experts all admired Leon very much. There was no jealousy but only praise for Leon.

After all, at such a young age, Leon showed a rich knowledge and amazing eyesight in the identification of ancient porcelain, which made these cultural relics scholars admire from the bottom of their hearts.

"Good! Well said!"

"Porcelain appraisers check the bottom first but we overlook the fact that counterfeiters can splice the upper part and the lower part together."

"Yes, it was my carelessness. It's like a new painting being framed with an old one."

Tina, vaguely understood that the bottom of the vase was made of real blue and white but the body of the jar was connected in modern times. She just didn't want to admit this fact.

"You're talking nonsense! I don't believe you, how did you become a master? These old experts are also extras you invited, aren't they?"

Tina was so angry that she thought Leon has asked the actors to play her.

Her rude remarks made the three experts so angry that they all stood up and accused her.

"This girl is so unqualified. Please watch your mouth!"

"This kind of person doesn't deserve to come to the treasure party. She's too vulgar!"

"Doesn't a girl even know how to be polite?"

Tina blushed and was ashamed as soon as those words were said by the three experts.

She suddenly remembered that this small blue and the white jar was appraised by the Dragon Pavilion and there was a certificate, how would it be a fake!

While she was thinking of this, Tina instantly became confident.

Dragon Pavilion was the benchmark of the industry. It had always cracked down on many fakes with the slogan "Identify fake things and keep real things."

"You so-called experts still lacks knowledge. I have the identification certificate of the Dragon Pavilion and the logo of the Dragon Pavilion is also covered in bright red. No matter how discerning you are, can you compare with the Dragon Pavilion?"

Tina took out the certificate and held it in her hand.

When Leon heard the speech and looked at the certificate, he frowned and was lost in thought.

Dragon Pavilion?

Was this really the identification certificate of Dragon Pavilion?

Who on earth copied Master Raharjo's sign?

New Jersey's Dragon Pavilion which was the "Hawk-Eye" of the antique world, was the benchmark for distinguishing fake things and keeping the real things. How was it possible?
