Features: Compared to the "high-end" collecting in the collecting fever, "mass" collecting is becoming increasingly active. As a hobby and for the need of investment and appreciation preservation, more and more people are eager for expert guidance while also hoping to obtain the most useful knowledge and collecting skills in the shortest time. "Identification·Mass Collecting" series takes this as its starting point, covering all aspects of mass collecting, such as the optimization of art collection categories, systematic collecting knowledge, simple and practical appreciation points, and accurately updated investment information, truly creating a low-cost, high-quality, and professional-level collecting book for the masses.
Ink and brush, ancient pottery and precious porcelain, Shang and Zhou bronze vessels, Qin and Han murals, jade and jewelry, rare stones and furniture, bamboo, wood, ivory, and horn—none of these have escaped the vicissitudes of time or failed to narrate the legends of their eras. After tea and meals, during leisure hours, whether alone or with a few close friends, reminiscing or appreciating, wandering along the river of time, and reveling in the replay of the past has become a fashionable trend.
