The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway. Look at a furniture auction, the auctions are dazzling, the price is very high. What kind of old furniture can be sold at a high price? What kind of old furniture is worth collecting? Is the capital market or artistic value behind the transaction price?

The characteristics of high-priced furniture correspond to several key words of furniture collection: complete, model, inheritance, road, and stock. Mastering these five secrets, you can practice a pair of old-fashioned eyes.

Tip 1: Seek truth and be complete

The premise of bidding for old furniture is to seek truth and integrity. Seeking truth is to ask the furniture to be replaced, not the later imitation (ie, fake). Up to now, there has been no clear fidelity agreement in the auction house auctions, and the furniture generation is still pending in the industry. The furniture in the published furniture catalogue is not reliable. People can only judge by experience and vision, or find the basis from the inheritance of furniture. The completeness lies in the fact that the various parts of the furniture are intended to be original, without modification of the later generations. If there is a major repair, the value of the furniture will be greatly reduced. The restructuring of old furniture, such as changing chairs, changing tables, etc., is a taboo for old furniture collections.

Lot case

Qing Emperor Qianlong·Purple Sandalwood Passionflower “Qingshou” pattern throne

Specifications: width 125cm; depth 75cm; height 115cm

Auction company: China Guardian

Auction Date: November 12, 2011

Transaction price: 57.5 million yuan

Case analysis

This throne was originally the old thing of Prince Gong’s Mansion. It was awarded to the Prince Gong of the Xianfeng Emperor in the late Qing Dynasty. When the Qing Dynasty fell, the then Prince Gong Weiwei raised money to help the last emperor Pu Yi to restore, together with these furniture, sold the collection in the Fuzhou to the Japan Chamber of Commerce in the mountains, and thus flowed overseas. The latter bought the collections. In the following years, they were auctioned in batches in New York, and the collections were distributed. The complete and detailed catalogues were kept, and the whole inheritance was very clear.

Tip 2: Model design beauty

To bid for old furniture, you should be clear about the difference between the utility and the collection. For the furniture that can go to the altar, everyone pays more attention not to its practical functions. After all, not many people take an old piece of furniture in order to get it back, but in its art appreciation value.

The artistic value is carried in the furniture itself, and is presented through its own style design and aesthetic charm. On the other hand, if the model is poor and the shape is ugly, the artistic value will not be reflected. It is difficult to call it a collectible, and it is difficult to change it.

The end of the Ming Dynasty · Huanghuali single board Weizhi horseshoe foot Arhat bed

Specifications: height 73.7cm; width 203cm; diameter 90.2cm

Auction company: China Guardian

Auction Date: May 21, 2011

Transaction price: 32.2 million yuan

Case analysis

Up to now, in the huanghuali Arhat bed furniture category, the transaction price of the Ming and the end huanghuali single-plate horseshoe arhat bed is still relatively high. The reason why it can shoot such a high price lies in the artistic beauty of its model design. There is no engraving decoration on the whole body, all in a straight line, only a slight arc in the leg, which is both plain and natural, and the whole is dignified and square. Objectively speaking, its materials are not heavy, but it is very careful in coordination and coordination, which can not only save the materials, but also not slim and thin.

Tip 3: Celebrity's "blessing"

In the auction, the celebrity collection is very special, often can become a "hot", the transaction price is often higher than the valuation range. In the collection, celebrities and collections are mutually successful processes. Whether the collections are excellent, the test and witness are the celebrity's vision and self-cultivation; the famous collectors' collections, research and writing on them, have established their own Tibetan status. It also made the collection more widely recognized and became a "hard currency." Through this "blessing" of celebrity collectors, the bidders who took over the bar reduced the risk of returning hands. Everyone based on the admiration and trust of celebrities, more confident and bold to shoot.

Ming·Weekly fish dragon sea beast rosewood pen holder

Specifications: diameter 14.6cm; diameter 11.7cm; height 16.5cm

Auction company: China Guardian

Auction Date: May 8, 2012

Transaction price: 55.20 million yuan

Case analysis

The Ming·Weekly Fish Dragon Sea Animal Rosewood Pen Holder was originally the old collection of Wang Shizhen. It was sold at a price of 55.20 million yuan, making it the most expensive pen holder in history. This can be commented on: the pen holder itself has a good artistic value and cultural relic value, but if it is not Wang Shizhen's old collection, it is impossible to shoot such a high price. As a generation of collectors and cultural relics, Wang Shizhen’s performance in the auction has always been very eye-catching. "Wang Shizhen's old collection" is a gold-plated signboard in the Tibetan world and the altar. This pen holder can shoot such a high price, which is both unexpected and reasonable.

Tip 4: "Highway" rating is high

The so-called "road" refers to the origin and grade of furniture, which differs depending on the environment, function and user identity. Under the same conditions and specifications, folk furniture is less than furniture, court furniture; bedroom furniture, kitchen furniture can not match the hall furniture, study furniture; general utility is not comparable to the ritual used in the temple palace. In addition, the etiquette system of ancient society is rigorous, and different furniture categories are often designed and used by people of different identities. The two kinds of furniture, such as the throne and the chair, are the best illustrations of this "road".

Late Ming·Huanghuali Round Back Chair

Specifications: width 70cm; thickness 66.2cm; height 107.8cm

Auction company: China Guardian

Auction Date: November 22, 2014

Transaction price: 23.575 million yuan

Case analysis

In the traditional sitting furniture, the position of the chair is very high. Because the chair can be folded, simple and light, it is often used for safari, play, and also used in marching big accounts. When used outdoors, the chairs are usually furnished separately and are reserved for the most distinguished people. Like the throne, the Suju Hall is a heavy place, and its regulation is extremely high. It represents the imperial power and is the genus of rituals. In addition to the emperor and the Empress Dowager, no one can sit at will, and the main seat of this house can only sit on a major day. In view of this status, the "road" of the throne and the chair is extremely high, and the auction price is good.

Tip 5: The world is scarce

The rareness of things is the value criterion of the Tibetan world. Compared with fake products, there are reliable and well-preserved furniture that are rare; compared with the poor quality of the original products, the design of wonderful boutique furniture is rare; compared to private private collections, celebrities The hidden furniture is rare; compared with the utility and folk furniture, the "roads" high rituals and court furniture are rare. In short, the scarcity of the world is the most practical and critical factor affecting the auction of furniture auctions.
