    A reproduction of a rare underglaze copper-red Ming dynasty (1368-1644) vase. Ceramics with underglaze copper-red decoration are very rare, due to their complicated production process and originals in the past have fetched over $10 million.

    During the firing process, the copper used to produce the rich raspberry red tones is difficult to control often turning grey or colourless if not handled an experienced potter. This vase is hand made on the traditional potters wheel and the sides flattened to give it's an octagonal shape. It is then decorated by hand before firing.

    Porcelain is steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history.
    Even though pottery developed in China 15,000 years ago, most experts believe that true porcelain -which also originated in China - didn't emerge in the region until the Han Dynasty -202 BC to 220 AD.
