88th Known Surviving Piece of Ru Ceramic is The 'Rarest' Royal Porcelain Bowl and At Least 900 Years Old!

Good to know that this rare bowl which was previously thought to have originated in Korea, has been successfully identified by international expert, Regina Krahl😅

The bowl, 13 centimetres in diameter, was probably made for washing brushes. It was originally part of the collection of a German doctor who visited China from 1913 to 1914, and was purchased in 1927 by the director of the Dresden Porcelain Collection.
