First broadcast: 11 Oct 2011.
In November 2010, a Chinese vase unearthed in a suburban semi in Pinner sold at auction for £43 million - a new record for a Chinese work of art. Why are Chinese vases so famous and so expensive? The answer lies in the European obsession with Chinese porcelain that began in the 16th century.
In this documentary Lars Tharp, the Antiques Roadshow expert and Chinese ceramics specialist, sets out to explore why Chinese porcelain was so valuable then - and still is now. He goes on a journey to parts of China closed to Western eyes until relatively recently. Lars travels to the mountainside from which virtually every single Chinese export vase, plate and cup began life in the 18th century - a mountain known as Mount Gaolin, from whose name we get the word kaolin, or china clay. He sees how the china clay was fused with another substance, mica, that would turn it into porcelain.
I am addicted to blue and white things. Fabrics, China, art, etc. I am sitting in a room with blue and white around me....delicious, meditative and as sedative as the clouds in a blue sky or the white caps on a blue sea....
hm the price for the collection of blue and white ( ALPINE PETRUS REGOUT AND IRONESTONE W.ADAMS SHANGHAI) ???
So wonderful! These Chinese have blessed this world with many amazing things!
Yes they have.
Eastern artisans are the best in the world I think, their skill in embroidery’s , porcelain, painting and metal work is unrivalled
painting?? meh
@@luxio369 yes. See Chinese paintings. Miniatire mughal paintings, Tibetan Japanese
@@luxio369 I'd somewhat agree. Western painting has far too wide a range from rembrandt to van gogh and picasso.
I inherited a rather large collection of Chinese porcelain spanning nearly a thousand years of Chinese history, from the early porcelain of the Shang to the more elaborate Ming dynasty. Not even poverty could bring me to part with them.
Is it possible to post some good resolution pictures so that we can enjoy it as well
😅好想帮你把它们卖了，你余生衣食无忧了。
The Era where "Made in china" would be considered the best.

islamic school of meme studies still one of the best, it depends how much you are willing to pay on the making price...
@Richmond Acosta Also the Han, Roman kind mad at Silk also
Well porcelains are still one of the best
China still make great products. They just don’t let the western market have it anymore. Westerners get the cheap stuff they make so the perceptions had changed based on that. Don’t underestimate modern China.
That is beautiful thing to collect them , I like the porcelain and even ceramics if the design is interesting , not just paintings on
them ,but also the shapes are fantastic .And the crystals are beautiful , the sparks of colours and the sound of them
so thin....... and long.......And the natural stones , with the venice inside ,in many different colours . Even the wood is beautiful
material with characteristics wooden patterns like ( slopes and sewings ) .
extremely durable,
Absolutely stunning examples in this video.

Yes, knowlege of Chinese porcelain found it's way right to my ears as a young girl. But trully, I did not know it was this remarkable.
Thank you for sharing. It's absolutely beautiful work.
Last year I found an early Ming Dynasty vase at a thrift store worth tens of thousands of dollars. Sad thing is I had no idea at the time what it was or it’s worth and I didn’t buy it for $8 😩
oh noooooo!!
Go BS somewhere els
@@natashabegley1346 it’s not BS. It was in the summer of 2021 at the Mega Thrift store in Winston Salem, NC. I am a mortician and transported bodies from Asheville to the medical examiner’s office at Wake Forest University Medical Center. I used to visit the thrift and antique stores while waiting for the autopsies to be completed. I really found one. Why would I lie about that?
Chinese porcelain is truly exquisite!
I can not afford the real thing & certainly not antique. It is so beautiful & so beautifully decorated
you don't have to! buy the pieces that give you happiness and those you can afford or.. get around financially.lol.
All these pieces are incredibly gorgeous, no doubt. I'm sure you can find copies of patterns on pieces that are much more budget friendly.. or you could do what i did, attended a class in painting bisque ( thats like a class where you have a go in painting pottery before its second firing) have a pattern or design in mind, apply it to your chosen item .. i used a lead pencil for the outlines and voila, you have something even better than you'd see anywhere cos you designed and created it and it will be wonderful❤️❤️❤️

Not with that attitude you won’t, get of your butt and put down the Netflix and RUclips
One of sources for trade surplus, together with tea, silk and many others.
This is so good i felt transported
Just beautiful.
Mind boggling. Thank you.
Great vid!!! Wonderful to learn/ review!!!
Very sad that the ancient china stay only in the history. But i am still very proud to be a chinese as our culture, our philosophy and our ancient history is irreplaceable and priceless for the human beings.
Porcelain was bring by the portuguese. They love art,and precious things.
The quality is cheap now, I miss China when the herbs are real and no pollution because they were riding bicycle!
China still makes some of the finest procaine in the world, many other modern Chinese Arts and Crafts goods fetches millions in the auction market. Chinese woodcarvings embroideries can only be afforded by the richest 1%
just because you can only afford to go to Walmart does not mean China don't produce fine quality items.
It's fine to feel proud of Chinese heritage but I always tell myself these are the works of our ancient ancestors. Not mine or ours to boast. If we want to be proud of our own community or country it depends on what we do now. It's not healthy for Chinese to keep living in past glory. Throughout Chinese history many dynasties had fallen due to people being complacent or conceited.
That is so true. Stop being stuck up to the past. A three hundred year old nation like America have easily surpassed us by a thousand fold. Everything is possible.We should all be humble and learn. And stop the copycat culture!
"under the hammer" is an unfortunate phrase where antique porcelain is concerned. Lol. "Under auctioneer's gavel"...? Lol!
And the mini decoration fountains with the colourful lights
which can places on the table or anywhere , i love them
and the mini houses, like makiety , models with the lights
everywhere in , out . And miniatures of big things but in
smaller sizes , they looks so cute and sweet .
I have porcelain fever too then lol , love this video
Really enjoyed the video. Alison The China Repair Studio.❤
Fancy seeing you here 😄 I'm just getting my pre - and during export-ware fascination a scratch. I just wish they had nice rosewood bottoms!

and today most homes dont even have formal dinning rooms in them anymore.
Fortumately my home does have a lovely formal dining room in my 1942 Craftsman Bungalow.
I would never dream of purchasing a newer home. Ive always own homes with history and character. Plus I guarantee my home structure and foundation will outlast most newer built homes.
Todays home are matchsticks in comparison.
Huge waste of investment long run.
@@reason5591 Taste and times change not saying one is right and other wrong...each to their own. I myself Like older things,but sadly even china is becoming a thing of past as many not only dont entertain ,but would not even know the formal way to do it.
I like Chinese porcelain and ceramic products and not just theirs
but also Japanese , Vietnamese , Korean, Italian, French etc.
And the water fountain , the mini ones and the big ones,
everything , especially the thing which are was made in siries,
and valuable way you know opersad to the ketch which is usually like unprofessional , childish, without styles cheap
things ?.
Great info
Belíssimas! !!!!

@@reason5591 wow
Beautiful
thanks
Those Pirates...Portugal opened the sea doors for the world to explore. Viva Portugal!
I am amused that though this video is about porcelain, at 4:54 the illustration is of someone examining a glass flask of urine. Bluintly, this has nothing to do with porcelain.
ART IS FUN , KEEP IT FUN .
THANKS.
VERY,, NICE PORECELAIN,, from malaysia,,,,,

See Lavan Galleries Masterpieces in Chinese Art on RUclips
how much does these porcelains really costs?
Abdul FATAHU
I have an old Chinese vase that I found in the Mediterranean. I am an amateur swimmer
That's reasonable. If the trade ship sunk there.
Habla, If it's an antique Chinese porcelain, it might worth a lot of money 💰 I suggest that you have it appraised.
Oh wow!
Very good.
Lovely :)
中国的陶瓷真美！
Beatiful
I would prefer it if there weren’t so many presenter driven documentaries these days - “I’ve been interested since...”, “I’m on a mission to...”. I don’t care about you I just want to learn about the subject matter.
I got the same jar same drawing
Good, thanks
Craftsmanship is so believable
Beautiful long time
Why aren't you honest and say that the best pieces were stolen from China .
Also you need to explain where the word porcelain comes from and therefore talk about Marco Polo who was the first to introduce porcelain to Europe thanks to trade with arabs and not at all with China . You need to also explain that the word porcelain(not China) is italian in origin, coming from the word porccelino , which means little pig, but in that case is the name of a seashell as the Italians who first saw porcelain thought that it looked and felt like the seashell they call Porccelino di mare , or Little pig from the sea .
You also forget to mention that the blue and white design is not Chinese at all but Arabic as the pigment chinese used was imported from Iran where it had been used for centuries and even the Chinese referred to it as Muhammad Blue . You don't even talk about why Porcelain from Jingdezhen became popular during the Sung dynasty rather than celadon , which was WAY more favored by th Ming's emperors .
You are deliberately forgetting A LOT of facts in your documentary . Making it about England and Europe when actually , Europe was the last market to ever discover porcelain, Arabs (well of of the middle east, even Egyptians) , Indians, Japaneses, Koreans, all knew Chinese porcelain long before europe discovered it . and if it wasn't for the Italians, the Brits would have never found out about it .
Dam,n if you are going to make a documentary, do your freaking homework . England or Britain is the smallest market of porcelain and was for centuries, the chinese couldn't give less of a damn about that small island .
5:30 os reis disputavam já nessa época os despojos de saque. Eram receptadores.
As always, the importance of the spanish trade is
meticulously neglected. The first masive imports to Europe were made through the Philipines Galleon, from China to the Philipines, from there to the Viceroyalty of New Spain (México) an from there to Seville. Felipe II had a wonderful colection of porcelain in Madrid´s Alcázar, and they were usually portrayed in his paintings colection. This objects were usually given to his austrian nephews and cousins, and his better pieces were inherited by his daugther, Infanta Isabel Clara Eugenia, who installed them in many of her palaces in Netherlands when she was commanded as Sovereing Archduchess there. Thus was the way porcelain gained such a prestige all over Europe.
Nice!
good
Indian blue pottery is also lovely.
excelente porcelana
Where I bought these things
Chinese is the oldest world exporter of goods since ancient time.
Porcelaine apik tenan om
I admire too but surely im unable to earn one…. This is way too super crazy expensive
Chinese mentality has not changed much ,smart ,hardworking ,untrusting and secretive , their key to success, perhaps we should learn something from them or perhaps is too late
What a load of racist bullshit. There are about 1.3 billion Chinese people. They do not share the same character traits.
China beautiful stone Crystal and agate Collection
rất đẹp
Stops at the best part!
Do you have Facebook account to know the other mane of plate because i so a plate that I don't know the name of it

Why doesn't the portly host put his sports coat/ jacket down somewhere? Watching him sweat all over the place as it drapes over his shoulder is so disconcerting.
Agreed! Its so "sloppy" and unprofessional

멋쪄부러요~^^
这件瓷器在收藏家里经常看到，存世不少，有清代和民国两种
The importance of China (porcelain) continues into the 21st century. Spacecraft heat sheilds, derived from porcelain is critical for the survival of cosmonauts during the fiery re-enetry into Earth's atmosphere.
CPU heat shields at the base on computers are also made of porcelain. Otherwise, the very high heat generated by CPUs would burn through the plastic casing of laptops, etc. in no time.
這批磁器是乾隆王時期的。
Look how they stupidly bordered it in gold to gift it to elisabeth I.
In my opinion the gold really ruined the art work, it doesn't match
I remember it was interesting when I first learned that china means fine porcelain in English. People were going mad for china. Now they're mad at Chinese tourists. lol
Woow 💕👍🖐
Yes the destruction they could and did cause
Might one just simply quote the Opium Wars
