“Stand firm and listen to my quote!”

In the antiquities program of Hunan radio, a beautiful girl appeared and attracted the audience’s attention. Everyone is curious as to what this “beautiful woman” will bring for expert assessment. After the introduction, the girl presented a duck incense burner for experts to check and value.

Along with today’s economic development, the value of the antique market has increased dramatically. Especially in auctions, ordinary objects from the ancient dynasty are also of inter-city value and are sought after by the community of collectors.

At the same time, because antiques containing historical elements are popular with modern people, it has unintentionally caused the counterfeiting industry to flourish. It’s really unfortunate for collectors who have spent a lot of money to buy their favorite treasures, but end up discovering fakes.

That is also the reason why the antiquities inspection program was born, helping people verify the authenticity, value of money and the story behind the item that they consider a precious treasure.

According to the girl, this duck incense burner was bought by her father for 400 thousand yuan (nearly 1.4 billion VND). She thinks her father was wrong to spend so much money just to buy such a trivial thing.

400,000 yuan is probably not a small amount of money for ordinary families, even able to buy a house in mid-range urban areas. That is also the reason why the girl could not accept that her father had spent too much money.

Then the girl told the specialist: “Dad used his money to buy this thing, logically I have no right to speak. But this is really a waste because this old thing can’t be a valuable antique. And the shape of the duck is not at all. has a bit of aesthetic, the surface is terribly rough, it feels like the person who made this thing has no heart, very different from ordinary antiques.”

The girl thinks that this item is a fake, but her father insists that the incense burner is very precious and worth at least 1 million yuan (nearly 3.5 billion VND). Arguing with her father, the girl decided to bring the “duck” to the program to ask for expert intervention.

After a thorough examination, the expert began to become serious, making the atmosphere at the studio more tense than ever.

Experts identified this object as an ancient incense burner in the shape of a duck. Accordingly, in the old dynasties in history, people mainly made items to imitate the shape of the 12 animals, of course there were also other animals. A prime example is the censer shaped like a crane used in the Royal Family or aristocratic family.

Hearing the expert say that, the girl immediately asked the money value of the duck incense burner. Experts answer: “Please stand firm and listen to me for a quote. Your father’s incense burner is worth at least 4 million yuan (nearly 13.9 billion VND)”.

The expert’s words made the girl and the whole studio shocked because she did not expect this metal “ugly duck” to have such a “terrible” value, 4 times higher than the original prediction number. Father.

The girl was both happy and scared, saying that she immediately returned to apologize to her father for daring to despise this “ugly duck”.
