It is an 18th century vase stolen in 19th century, the original owner would be long dead. And I am not crying for someone if they have 43m to spend on a vase.
I was lucky to handle this vase Arthur negas said it was a fake if you looked through the perforated panels on the side you could see the inner vase painted blue and white design who ever made this vase was so good and the persons hand must have been Rock steady to do the decorating was nice it went back to China
International Antiques ... Would be interesting to be at such an auction and see a piece like this! Thanks for sharing. And yes people don't get that some pieces of art like this are very hard to produce by hand! My mother was a painter so I know first hand. The Chinese were extreme skilled artisans when it came to art work any type. I'm always amazed and in awe how they can accomplish a piece of art the way they do!! Is one reason I'm longing to go to The Forbidden City one day before I die. That's a museum of 100% REAL priceless art within itself!! BTW, how much is 43 million POUNDS in U.S. Dollars? I googled it and the amount I found was $83 million!!!! Have mercy!!!! But then again looking closely at this piece especially the lattice work design and fish etc.. I could see why. It's truly a beautiful piece!! Great investment for whoever won and purchased it. You're lucky to go to such auctions!
I agree with you a stunning piece the blue and white part inside how did they do that i was at the original auction and expected to maybe get that vase at a nice small sum how wrong i was, i am very happy to have found at last to my eye and enlarge image software a vase being sold at auction in st annes Lancashire , no fan fair glorifying the similarity the Modern day replica has to the pinner just its after and Modern , the person that wrote that has no idea how beautiful the vase is , i was at one time going to buy a cheap copy from a Chinese web page till i thankfully waited , i love the blue and white part inside stunning my wife and i will be at this auction and 100% be able to afford the lovely replica, no whistle and bells just straight honest auction house lot. Link below of the replica that claims nothing and being auctioned honestly with a low estimate and start price YES! www.gerrardsauctionrooms.com/BidCat/detail.asp?SaleRef=20180118&LotRef=800 my next post will be me bragging i got it cant not loose this auction guaranteed Waite my update
How do we find a reputable appraiser? I have a Meiji Period Satsuma Vase that was appraised at $10k in 1997... but 'who knows?' And how would I find an interested buyer?
I can imagine the buyers own a substantial business to accumulate such wealth to spend on just one vase, I wonder how many workers were denied a pay rise, because the company couldn't afford it. Hopefully the sellers did some good things with the windfall, It's a crazy world we live in.
@@yaxiongzhao6640 The long-dead robber who stole it over a century before any of us were born? That's some impressive blackmail if he's at it beyond the grave. Diabolical.
I am simply selling Chinese antique jewelry on youtube. So save your money to buy Sothebys or Christies. The clearest man would get the same antique by spending 1 dollar on me rather than 100 million dollars on auction companies
Be thankful that such items were already in the West when Mao's "cultural revolution" took place destroying incalculable amounts of precious Chinese artifacts from the past. If these items fetch such high prices in the West today it's because there are so very few left in China.
Don’t be ridiculous. In other words, we should be thankful that the British looted from the Chinese? Not to mention countless artefacts like this can be found in the palace museum in Beijing
The artifacts in the imperial palace were never destroyed during the cultural revolution. Mao did not allow the red guards to destroy them. Imperial tombs were free game though.
Ask yourseif. 1. If vase stend long time in London-why nobody not seen it before ??? 2.. Why found exactly where you can profitably sell ?? I am know what this fake story, If need7 If you want? Can tell the real story. But it's not fun.
They give one reason in the video in that there is now a huge number of wealthy people in China that want to buy their history back and will at any cost. Perhaps India will have its time in the not-too-distant future.
Idk, but India has a history going back 11,000 years. So... Man, if you ever find one of those artifacts, it's definitely worth a lot. Although, as Indiana Jones says, "IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!"
It may be because of the large production of Chinese cultural relics and the fact that Chinese people are more interested in buying Chinese cultural relics.
I used to think that multi million dollar cars were stupid but this takes the cake, at least you can drive a car, all this thing would ever do is sit on a shelf.
Checkout this 4 part BBC documentary, th-cam.com/video/9YNDe5WbdbQ/w-d-xo.html and you'll start to understand its value to some people. The effort and time that went into these is phenomenal. Unlike objects with direct utility like a car, art can have significantly different value for different people.

its sad that the original owner had to buy the stolen vase back from the thieves. its sad
Thats what I was thinking, what the Europeans done to China and Asia was bad, how we treated the Asians on the whole was extremely bad

Yes, I am also feeling very sad for the original owner who has managed to hit 200 years of age _and_ has got 43 million to spend on a vase.
the final buyer didn't pay
Hmmmmm! I am looking at my favorite vase, resting on a bookshelf.
The original buyer refused to pay the extra nearly 9 million auction fees and in a subsequent re-auction it made 25 million.
The buyer dont pay any extra, the auction costs comes out of the final bid
@@southerneruk Buyer fees including VAT is always an extra cost added to the bid price. It was an auction house, not eBay.
@@chrisw4329 VAT maybe but even then it is recoverable, its the seller that pays % of the final bid for auction services and not the buyer
@@southerneruk Bainbridge's website states " Buyers pay a premium of 27% of the hammer price + VAT."
@@chrisw4329 cant do a lot of busines then, chris'a don,t, btw way you can't charge vat on second hand goods, only on services provided.
treasures of the forbidden city were looted. Now most of them were around the world...
I was there when this sold I looked through the lattice work there was another pot inside blue white pattern
Its really collection from Moscow. And more than 20 subject is after soled in Bainbridgesauction.
the buyer got a great deal. that vase is very nice.

Thank you !

🇨🇳 WORKERS OF ALL NATIONS, UNITE! 🇨🇳 (Ever since 1847 there's always been a spoilsport in the crowd.)
Wow I didn't know my Chinese neighbours were rich.
They were just blackmailed by the robber who got this many years ago...

Remember reading about this, did you know they nearly put it in a skip of rubbish..🤯
Now imagine dropping this…
When it gets sold and he slams down the gavel it broke and pieces went flying everywhere could have easily smashed the vase lol
3:11 what a slap on out faces. Emperor Qianlong is famous for his bad taste compare to his father Emperor Yongzheng -- a true artist emperor.
some people know value, when they see it

@@igortruthov9094 shut up buddy
Yeah like the British colonialist who had the effontary to steal it, rather than buy it sincerely in the first place.
Money well spent.
I saw this appraised on Antiques Road Show.
How much did they appraised it?
I think some ego played a part in this
This guy is Guilty of High Treason!
Imperial vase .. that's why..
Whant truth? This vase really bring from Moscow.
Worthless to me as it has so many holes in it that it couldn't hold any water for a proper flower arrangement.
how come nothing from India ever worth this much?

No way the announcer is the same guy that Robert Downey Jr walked out on! He still has a job!
This was 11 years ago - don't think the C4 presenter works for them anymore.
我也有收藏这些转心瓶,这个瓷器存世还好多都在民间藏家
Great piece pity about the presenter
I love how he slapped the Gavel so hard that be broke it 😂
MADE IN CHINA LOL ;)
a milioner an buy them😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

junkies loved opium so traded it with the British
Sorry for the delay of not making payments. I will come in cash on this Friday to settle it. Thanks.
Yuanmingyuan loot?
Definitely. No other way an imperial qianlong vase would wind up in britain.
