A Blue-and-White pot from the Qianlong period [english.cguardian.com] |
This pot, above, actually originated from the Ming Dynasty, sold for 1,380,000 RMB at the China Guardian Auctions. Emperor Qianlong adored Ming-style Blue-and-White porcelain, so he ordered the Imperial kiln to reproduce some. This pot is a typical copy of Ming-style. Made under a difficult manufacturing process, it represents the high level of porcelain making during the Qianlong period.
