Recently, the program “Treasure inspection” (China) aired with the participation of a woman surnamed Li from Nanjing city.
Ms. Ly is a retired state employee, her monthly pension alone is enough for her to have a full and prosperous life. However, instead of using money to live comfortably, Ms. Ly chose to invest in antiques.
She heard that collecting antiques and then reselling them can be very profitable, but her husband vehemently opposes this passion. He said that Miss Li can’t even distinguish between Chinese historical dynasties, what can she collect.

Despite her husband’s disapproval, Ms. Ly still regularly brings home antique cottages, porcelain, jade… Recently, she went to a familiar antique shop and was invited by a seller to buy a pair of antique vases. . The owner advertised this as a pair of Tsinghua porcelain vases of the Qing emperor, the value of which could later be equivalent to 2 houses.
Ms. Ly heard the persuasion and immediately poured her bag to buy a pair of porcelain vases. She did not specify how much money was spent, but when she brought the treasure home, her husband got angry and broke one of the two vases.

Today, Ms. Ly brought the remaining vase to the program “Treasure Inspection” to ask an expert to help, see if it is a treasure as it is said.
Experts who heard Ms. Li’s introduction felt that something was wrong. The advertisement of this shop owner is really exaggerated, if it is worth 2 real houses, why would you agree to sell it to Ms. Ly.
The expert looked at it for a while and then said: “From the enamel, the texture to the color, it is clear that this is Tsinghua Tsinghua porcelain made around the end of the Qing Dynasty. Tsinghua porcelain has clear characteristics. especially the blue-gray glaze. The pattern is characterized by soft, liberal, relatively simple drawings, often decorated with flowers and grass.”
Ms. Li exclaimed with joy, so the salesman did not deceive her.

“But forgive me for being blunt,” continued the expert -“This vase is just a product of the folk kiln, has nothing to do with the emperor, the royal family. Its estimated value is only about 20,000 yuan.”
It turns out that not objects that have been left for many years become valuable antiques, with ceramics, only works in royal kilns such as Nhu kiln and Quan kiln are treasured by collectors.
After hearing the conclusion, Ms. Li felt extremely sad. It turned out that her passion for collecting did not make her rich, but was only used to deceive and lose her family happiness. Ms. Ly brought the vase home in regret, it seemed that she had lost a huge amount of money for this treasure.
