藝術品經紀人和瓷器專家翟健民從少年時在古董店清洗瓷器開始對碗、碟、瓶們有了朦朧的興趣，而後開辦自己的古董店，43歲到北京大學進修，又去社科院、故宮學習，對瓷器始終熱誠不變。北京電視台請他去做《天下收藏》的首席鑑定嘉賓，鳳凰衛視聘他做顧問，中國社科院請他做特聘教授，正是源於他的專業和情懷。同時，他也創立了五月剛剛於香港舉行的國際古玩展。更難得的是，除了職業範疇，他更活躍於公共領域，想要利用媒體的力量，傳播正確的收藏知識，為民間收藏愛好者解答問題。這次HK ARTION榮幸地邀請了翟健民跟我們分享他收藏瓷器的個人心得。
The art dealer and porcelain expert William Chak has been interested in the porcelain bowls, plates, and bottles since cleaning porcelain in an antique shop as a teenager. He started his own antique shop afterwards. At the age of 43, he went to study in Peking University, before further studying in the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the Forbidden City and so on. Throughout the years, his passion for porcelain never change. Precisely because of his expertise and working ethics, Beijing TV Station invited him to be the chief connoisseur of “World Collection”, Phoenix TV hired him as an advisor, and Chinese Academy of Social Sciences asked him to be a distinguished professor. He is also the founder of the International Antiques Fair just held in May. What is more inspiring is that, in addition to the professional activities, Chak is also active in the public domain, striving to spread the liable knowledge about the collection through social media and answering questions for the general collectors. This time, HK ARTION was honoured to have invited William Chak to share his insights and tips on porcelain connoisseurship.
