***************

The condition of the three desk lamps can be said to be completely renewed. All the rust on the lamp base has disappeared, and the cracks on the lampshade are all as neat as new, and there is no trace of crack at all.

After he took out the three desk lamps from the purple jade space, he immediately felt a sense of relief all over his body. The feeling of sourness, weakness and weakness just now disappeared from his body.

Sure enough, it has something to do with these three desk lamps. It seems that it is not easy to repair these old antiques, and it makes me sleep for more than ten minutes.

Thinking of this, he quickly took out the phone number. When he saw that there were indeed several missed calls from Candice, he quickly called back and gave Candice a brief explanation to relieve her.

At this time, Fang Bo happened to go upstairs with the cooked ginger tea and handed it to his hands. Only then did Fang Bo see the three desk lamps placed on his bedside.

Just after taking a look, Fang Bo's eyes immediately lit up.

"Good thing! Where did you find it?"

Fang Bo asked around the three table lamps placed on the table. Jin Muchen pinched his nose and drank the bowl of ginger tea, then got up and got out of bed, and came to Fang Bo's side.

"This is from Long Island..."

Then he talked about how he met Harvey and Mike on the ladder on Friday, how he followed them to Harvey's vacation villa, how he knew there was a garage next door for sale, etc.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that he picked up the rag and didn't pay a penny to get it. He just said in a vague way that the three desk lamps were placed in the garage, covered in dust, and looked very worn, and the owner was also ignorant.

Finally, I took it down at an extremely low price. After I came back last night, I worked hard for most of the night to clean the three desk lamps.

Fang Bo looked at the dirty sewage in the basin still in the room, as well as the sponge on the side, and the rag were believed to be true.

Fang Bo went downstairs to find a few more light bulbs, installed the lamp, plugged in and turned on the switch, and the light immediately turned on.

"Good thing, your kid's luck is really against the will of heaven. Haha, of course, you were my apprentice, and this choice was really right. Boy, do you know, you may have found another leak this time, and this is still a big leak!"

Fang Bo turned off the light, then turned the table lamp over, looked at the symbol under the table lamp, and then said to Jin Muchen with a smile.

Jin Muchen was also stunned when he heard this. The reason why he took back these three desk lamps before was that he thought that this lamp must be a treasure, but he did not expect that Fang Bo's evaluation of these three desk lamps was so high.

He said he had picked up a big hole, could these three desk lamps be some treasures?

Fang Bo carefully observed the first one. Jin Muchen figured out each green table lamp of what material, held it in his hand and looked over and over again, and then flipped it over and over again.

After watching for a long time, he said to Jin Muchen.

"I don't know the other two, but this lamp must be the most expensive of these three lamps."

"Why?"

Jin Muchen asked, and Fang Bo gave him a blank look: "You kid, your Taoist skills are still too shallow, and there are many things to learn! You look at the material of this lamp, which is tortoiseshell, and the two are just bronze, brass and glass. This material already determines the price of this lamp."

"Ah? It turns out it's tortoiseshell? I said why the material of this lamp is so weird? I have studied it for a long time but couldn't figure it out."

Jin Muchen scratched his head and said.

"Hehe, kid, you're probably going to develop now..."

Fang Bo put his head under the lampshade again, looked carefully for a long time, and then muttered to Jin Muchen, who was stunned when he heard it.

"Look at this place?"

Fang Bo pointed his finger at the lampshade and said to Jin Muchen in a very inconspicuous place. Jin Muchen stretched his head under the lampshade and looked carefully. On the inside of the lampshade, he found a very small line of signatures.

Louis-Comfort-Tiffany!

"Don't you know who this guy is?"

Fang Bo looked at Jin Muchen with a smile and asked. Jin Muchen's head was like a rattle. Can't remember such an antique celebrity in China?

Who knows what this foreigner does?

Fang Bo directly bounced his head and then pointed at him with a little anger and said.

"You boy, you're so confused. Have you never heard of Tiffany?"

"Of course I have heard of Tiffany. I know that they mainly make jewelry and also produce desk lamps, but it seems that their main business is diamond jewelry!"

"It seems that you still have to make up for your lessons. Although I am not very proficient in Western antiques, Louis-Comfort-Tiffany is a celebrity in the Western antique circle!"

Bo Fang smiled and shook his head and said to Jin Muchen, then began to explain to Jin Muchen.

It turns out that Louis-Comfort-Tiffany is the son of Charles Tiffany, the founder of Tiffany, and the second-generation head of Tiffany.

This guy didn't want to be a jewelry businessman. He initially wanted to be a painter, but later because of his family, he took over the family business and the business was very good.

But while doing jewelry business, he still possesses his own hobbies and pursuits, and his hobbies are the production and design of stained glass.

So in 1886, he started his own stained glass manufacturing company. At that time, the United States was in a period of vigorous development, and many cities were building churches.

Those churches all wanted to use the stained glass used by those churches on the European continent, so his stained glass company jumped up with this east wind.

After that stage, because the stained glass market was saturated, he began to use stained glass to make handmade vases and desk lamps.

Moreover, this rich second generation is not just a simple company, he is also an artist and a design master.

He personally produced and designed and produced many painted glass vases and desk lamps.

Because when designing, he always uses light as a unique element, making the painted pictures on the glass lampshade exude a unique charm, his works are often very exquisite and beautiful, and they are sought after in the market.

So there was such a saying about Tiffany back then: Women all hoped to get a set of Tiffany jewelry, while men even wanted to get a Tiffany desk lamp.

Later, in the late 19th century and early 20th century, Tiffany desk lamp products were already quite famous in the United States and even the whole world.

Many people are even willing to spend a lot of money on Tiffany's works. At this time, because Tiffany is old and the heavy task of managing the company, he rarely designs and manufactures works himself.

And at that time, due to the changes of the times, high-power fluorescent lights became popular. People believed that Tiffany's works could no longer meet people's daily needs and could no longer reflect the effects of the art of the times.

But only he firmly believes in his works and artistic style, and is always unique and will definitely be revitalized in the future.

Since the 1970s, his firm belief has become a reality with the changes in popular elements, and his works have begun to be recognized and sought after by people. Now, his original works are even hard to find!

"So there is such a saying?"

Jin Muchen said after hearing Fang Bo's explanation.

"Otherwise, what do you think! This Louis, Confort, and Tiffany are famous contemporary American artists and design masters. Now his works are often hard to find. Many collectors specialize in collecting glass bricks, table lamps and vases he designed and made back then. Even if his works are just ordinary glass bricks, they will start at 100,000 US dollars!"

Fang Bo said to Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen was stunned when he heard this. A piece of glass brick costs $100,000?

"Yes! Starting at $100,000, who made Confort Tiffany an American? So his works are quite popular among American collectors."

Fang Bo continued, this principle is the same as the principle that Chinese people like simple and elegant blue and white ancient porcelain, as well as antique landscape calligraphy and painting. Once national pride is involved, the value of many antiques will be different immediately.

So how could I pay for these three exquisitely made desk lamps? I would have to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars! It’s so developed now!

Jin Muchen felt that his little heart was trembling uncontrollably.

"Your three desk lamps are very exquisitely made, and there is also the signature of Louis on them. The works should have been made in 1907. At this time, he rarely participated in the design and production of Tiffany desk lamps. These few of your items should be the finest products of his period. After all, it was the golden period of his artistic career, and because it was the last period, the price was definitely not cheap. But I really can't tell the exact amount of it. After all, I only have a little understanding of these Western antiques. If you want to sell them, I will call Rick later and take it to him to show it, and then ask him to contact the buyer for you. I guess he can't accept such expensive things!"

Uncle Fang looked at Jin Muchen and said, and Jin Muchen nodded repeatedly. That was really great.

The next day, Jin Muchen asked for leave from Old John for the first time, but did not go to the distribution center to work, but drove straight to SOHO's citybarn antique store early in the morning.

When he arrived, Old Rick had been waiting for him in the store. Yesterday, he called Fang Bo and said that Fang Bo's nephew had collected three fine desk lamps made by Louis Tiffany by himself. He was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night.

After all, it is not easy to see Tiffany's fine works these days. Many of this master's works are now collected by various gods of wealth, and it is not that easy to see them.
