Check out this 'highly important' and rare falangcai (or foreign colours) bowl from Yongzheng Emperor's era.
The name 'falangcai' was given to porcelain originating from the imperial kilns of Jingdezhen but enameled by artisans in Beijing’s Forbidden City.
Good to know that it still fetched a handsome amount despite being sold as a single piece instead of a pair.
According to Sotheby's, its “twin” is now held at the British Museum in London.
