Further details

COLLECTOR’S NOTE:
The collector fondly recalls when he and his father started collecting Yuan blue and white porcelain in the 1980s, very few Chinese collectors paid attention to this category. However they recognised the underlying importance behind Yuan blue and white porcelain and actively sought after significant pieces. This impressive charger belongs to one of the four earliest Yuan blue and white wares acquired by the collector, forming the foundation of the prestigious Tianminlou Collection.
