Ceramic outputs from the Imperial Porcelain Factory at Jingdezhen of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911) have long been admired for their sumptuous decorative style and superb firing techniques. This exhibition is a testimony of this—through a comprehensive display of porcelain vases of a wide range of shapes, decorative techniques and glaze effects. All exhibits are drawn from the renowned Huaihaitang collection of Mr Anthony K. W. Cheung.
