Features: The status of ancient Chinese artworks in the world is increasingly rising, as evidenced by the auction prices of Ming dynasty porcelain and Shang-Zhou bronze wares reaching tens of millions in recent years. Like other fields, driven by profit, fakes of ancient artworks have flooded the market, greatly undermining the appreciation skills of collectors and dampening people's enthusiasm for ancient art. This book embodies the practical service function of antiques literature, presenting genuine and counterfeit items through comparative studies, which helps in identifying authenticity and understanding the true nature of ancient Chinese art. The book selects representative jade works from various dynasties, accompanied by their corresponding fakes, with detailed explanations of their authenticity.
