Chapter 226 (1/2)

When Chu Lingfeng wanted to speak out, Zeng Hua looked at Chu Lingfeng and said with a smile, ”Ling Feng, although this bronze mirror, old man, I can conclude that it was before the Sui Dynasty and the southern and Northern Dynasties, but there is no inscription or evidence on it. Do you really have any evidence?”

In fact, ancient bronze mirrors are not much different from today's glass mirrors. They are all necessary things for the family. However, in ancient times, copper was money, and only wealthy families could afford to use it. However, even so, the number of bronze mirrors is still very large, and the amount of unearthed is also very large.

In addition to the rare production in the Qin Dynasty, the custom of sacrificial burial is no better than that of later generations. However, in various dynasties after the Qin Dynasty, the dead people were given mirrors to the undertakers, because the use of mirrors for sacrificial burial meant to take the ghost away, and then it became a custom from generation to generation.

Therefore, wherever you go, you can see the existence of bronze mirrors on the stalls as long as you go to the antique market. Except for the bronze mirrors of the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, you can see them all, and the price is not very expensive.

However, in the northern and Southern Dynasties, due to the years of war, the quality of handicrafts was not high, and the styles of bronze mirrors were basically Han Dynasty style, but even so, it was not something rare.

However, Zenghua really hopes that Chu Lingfeng can give the mirror the beautiful story of reunion, which is not a good story.

Chu Lingfeng laughed and said, ”my Lord, most of the bronze mirrors with inscriptions are from the Han Dynasty, but the inscriptions after the Han Dynasty are rare. Even if they are imitated, they are also rare. Moreover, in the northern and Southern Dynasties, most of the bronze mirrors cast had no special features because of the historical reasons at that time. Isn't this mirror just in line with the situation at that time?”

Chu Lingfeng said with a smile, handed the mirror to Zenghua and said, ”master, although you don't know much about bronzes, what kind of mirror can people use? You should still be able to see it?”

Chu Lingfeng turns over those bronze mirrors, and suddenly an idea comes out in his heart. Originally, he has some other meaning, but in his heart, he really thinks that these two mirrors are the mirrors in the allusion of ”broken mirror reunited”.

Zenghua took the mirrors, looked at them, nodded and said, ”the texture and appearance of these mirrors are very general, but the pan Jue mirror and Zhangcao mirror all have the meaning of peace and wealth, and the broken mirror should be of better quality.”

Zeng Hua picked up the two broken mirrors and closed them together. His eyes suddenly lit up. At this time, he also thought that the mirror might be the mirror in the ”broken mirror reunion”.

Because these two pieces of copper mirrors are put together, except for some copper rust, they can almost completely fit together.

Chu Lingfeng said with a smile: ”Sir, you can see that. At the same time, you should know that the bronze mirror is actually unbreakable, and the bronze content in the mirror is not much, so it is almost impossible to be naturally broken, and from the fracture point of view, it should be artificially cut.”

At this time in the hall, only Chu Lingfeng's voice reverberated, and the rest of the audience were all attracted by Chu Lingfeng's analysis.
