COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Kangxi period porcelain is highly regarded for its crisp cobalt blue decoration and finely potted forms. Floral basket designs were popular export motifs intended for European markets during the early Qing dynasty. Even restored examples remain collectible for their historical appeal and decorative quality.
