COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Blue and white porcelains of the Qianlong era were widely admired for their refined painting and elegant forms. Landscape scenes inspired by Chinese scholarly painting traditions were especially favored for export wares during the 18th century.

Antique metal staple repairs are now appreciated by collectors as part of an object’s historical life and evidence of period use and preservation.
