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.
So wonderful! These Chinese have blessed this world with many amazing things!
Yes they have.
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) ???
Amazing programme you tell the story beautifully, more please
The rest of the documentary is SIMPLY SPLENDID.

islamic school of meme studies still one of the best, it depends how much you are willing to pay on the making price...
@@Jackben1mble Also the Han, Roman kind mad at Silk also
Well porcelains are still one of the best
Absolutely stunning examples in this video.
Thank you for sharing. It's absolutely beautiful work.
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.
Great vid!!! Wonderful to learn/ review!!!
LOVESS THIS SERIESSS :DDD THANK YOU!!!
Wow, many of these porcelain back then still beat the modern dinning wares produced today. 0:22 what a beauty
The plates at the dollar store are porcelain however they have no artwork
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.
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

Love this documentary, one of the best on youtube.
The display at 7:19 is mind blowing!
That would be the “Blue Silk Dressing Room” at Burghley House (1555-1587), which is right next to the beautiful stone town of Stamford in Eastern England.
One of sources for trade surplus, together with tea, silk and many others.
many thanks for this great upload!
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?
Great info
Wow, breathtaking, BEAUTIFUL, beautiful, beautiful, jawdroping...
Very good, so fantastic collections...
thanks for sharing
Working with porcelain is not easy to work with. When form an object you can't use too much water it'll collapse, work it too much it'll collapse. But once fired it is hard to break or chip and color of glazes really standout. And many of the patterns or pictures on the porcelain are hundreds of years old.
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❤️❤️❤️

A beautiful and very wonderful offer. I wish success and progress in your wonderful work. Health and safety to you. My thanks, appreciation and respect.

Very good.
thanks
Good, thanks
Lovely :)
This was fascinating, thank you ⚪🔵⚪🔵⚪
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!
be careful, there are a lot of fakes out there. A fake ceramic maker went public when he didn't get paid for his scam work. I love art. Keep up the beauty
Very well researched! Thank you!
Great video and gorgeous porcelain!
Shangrila Antique stupid

Beautiful long time
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.
VERY,, NICE PORECELAIN,, from malaysia,,,,,
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.
Porcelaine apik tenan om
中国的陶瓷真美！
Beatiful the best gold
excelente porcelana
bagus bagus property yang sebegitu banyak nya 👍

I have one off these large Brithis /China Dishes of Blue design passed, down through my family. My one grandfather was captain during the tall ships. Once we even had a monkey from Africa at his house, as pet, later given to Copenhagen Zoo. I was a trained Porcelain paintres at Royal Copenhagen Porcelain. The history goes, that Kathrine the Great of Russia succeeded in stealing the porcelain secret from China. Through Royalty family there it was sold to Denmark , and Royal Copenhagen Porcelain was created. The first Porcelain design in Denmark was a unique Blue design. Later , came Rococo Design off Floral Blossoms. Which I painted, while there, as artist in my early youth. .The Royal Court past, wanted some unique Danish. Design of it's own, less Blue, and thus created was, The Flora Danica. Flowers ,in a strictly Botanical Danish fashion with extensive gold on edges in lace porcelain. What's interesting is today we compete on cyber developments, then, the big thing was porcelain, and yes Spices and Fragrences. There was actually Spice wars. How the taste , and needs changes. Interesting.🇩🇰🇺🇸🗽🦅🎆
whats the ratio and materials for bone china.. tell me, whats the temp and how many firings? If you were a painter for copenhagen, what brushes did you use and the brush hair fibre content.
@@jenniferschmitzer299 Our department , that is design , did not concern us with technical firing data. In fact unless you worked in that department, was not available. I can tell you Musel design, first in company, which I have some in Blue on white, was painted on unfired porcelain. The Rococo , design I painted , was on fired glased China, which after the fact got a second firing. The brushes we used was Sable. The colors were organic dry powder pigments, we had to mix, work to substance with linseed oil and a organical chemical, smelled like vanilla. As, with onset of Royal Copenhagen, as other companies, often was keep very copyright. As for years even China kept the making of porcelain a secret. When, Russia's Kathrine the Great broak it ( stole it), early on the resapie was given by Royals to their other Royal family houses. And, the Europiens family was a tight circle Is interesting history.🇩🇰🇺🇸🗽🦅📬
The recipe of Chinese was secretly copied by a Jesuit priest in China and sold it to Catherine the Great?
My cat's bowl is a Chinese porcelain bowl. So there!
Well all cats are kings or queens lolol so its fitting 😄
that is seriously cool 😎
Hope your cat won't break it. Good Luck!

See Lavan Galleries Masterpieces in Chinese Art on TH-cam
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

bellisimo
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.
Mantap
I love modern Japanese porcelain but I couldn't afford them.
I inherited a stunning collection from an older friend that is now deceased
I was so stunned to learn of it!
@@reason5591 wow
5:30 os reis disputavam já nessa época os despojos de saque. Eram receptadores.
British are so beautiful and inspiring
I have seen it in DRESDEN ZWINGER..
how much does these porcelains really costs?
Abdul FATAHU
The British had very little of Chinese porcelain - in comparison. - with Saxon Prince-Elector August the Strong, who collected a few thousand pieces. Under him Boettger found the secret of producing porcelain. Today the Saxon porcelain production is Meissen, still keeping patterns of the Chinese (dragon and onions). And in Dresden one can see in a museum 2 thousand pieces of Chinese and Japanese porcelain pieces, 10% of the whole collection.
China beautiful stone Crystal and agate Collection

لدي قطعتان خزف صيني نادر ارجوا المساعدة للتقييم اكثر
How can I tell if my vases are Ming amd Qing dynasties and if they are who would I go to confirm? Any suggestions?
Usually there are some Chinese words at the bottom of each vase, and from the Chinese words you can know which period the porcelain was made.
Can someone help me i've some orignal gardner crockery can some one tell me how much the orignal cost.
Try the website of Dr Lori. She will appraise your piece. Details of how to contact her are on her website. Best wishes.
