'Su Ma Li Qing' originally came from Persia; currently, the top three collections of large Yuan blue and white pieces in the world are in Turkey, Iran, and Jiangxi Gao'an... Especially, the large number of cellar-stored relics of Gao'an blue and white porcelain unearthed in Jiangxi has caused a sensation in the Chinese cultural relics community. The Yuan blue and white, which had not been popular, suddenly became well-known nationwide, prompting research into Yuan blue and white porcelain that continues to this day... First, the Qingbai porcelain made Jingdezhen one of the six famous kilns, a milestone for the town; blue and white porcelain was the defining product of Jingdezhen, making its name known worldwide. The Yuan blue and white porcelain was extensively destroyed after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, leaving its remaining quantity a mystery. As time passed, it even disappeared from sight. The treasure of the Wuhan Museum, the Yuan blue and white 'Four Loves' plum vase, was acquired by a stroke of luck at an antique shop. Tickets 🎫: Free, no reservation needed.
