This is a series of stories about antique jade articles. The author uses a realistic approach to show readers various characters and various market conditions. As well as the orderly inheritance of antiques that carry Chinese traditional culture, thoughts on the times and life.
Features of the work:
1. The writing method of the work is unique, and the study refers to the interpretation mode of storytelling scripts. The text is full of Beijing flavor, which is also a unique feature.
2. The description of the story is full of realism, very much like the style of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and the knowledge reserve about antiques is also very sufficient. I believe that the author has done a lot of research on old antiques and the history and culture of that period.
3. The story is a folk tale, with a feeling like "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". It is not only full of legend, but also educational and entertaining. It has profound meaning and corrects three views.
Reader comments
This "Antique Notes" is very interesting! It is like a fascinating collection of stories that took me through the wonders of the antique world. Every story is full of legend, making me feel like I am in the pre-Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Moreover, the author has a deep research on antiques and old affairs, and has rich relevant knowledge. It is both informative and interesting to read. I especially like the various characters in it, such as Grandpa. His classic quote "You can disbelieve some things, but you can't disrespect them" impressed me deeply. All in all, this is a book well worth reading.
I have read several books by the author, and I love them very much.
History is written by people, but in the dark, there may be many historical facts unknown to us that have been passed down by word of mouth and turned into a long and dim story, scattered among all living beings. This book plays such a role. It uses the three national treasures of the conch, the thumb ring and the Buddha's head as a guide to write three stories behind them. They may not be so real, but they give us profound thoughts. You can disbelieve some things, but you can't disrespect them...
Smooth writing and touching plot
It's a good book. For me who loves history and antiques, I admire the author's feelings and experiences. I also thank the author for recording and sharing some of his experiences. Please give it a thumbs up.
It's so touchingly written
Worth reading. Shortcomings are inevitable.
Collecting is related to interest and limited by wealth. Only with an open and reverent heart can we start well and end well.
There are three chapters in total: "The Story of Fa Luo", "The Story of Pulling the Finger" and "The Story of Buddha's Head", which are narrated like a storyteller.
