Dear all,
here below you can see which is the book and some of the bottles.
I was disappointed because the National Palace Museum of Taipei is known for having the best of the best of Chinese Art, i.e. the collections of the Imperial Court.
Dear Tom, is it right what you said, that the pieces there are the preferred ones from the Last Emperor? For what I know it is not that, it is the collection of the treasures amassed by the many Chinese emperors. Am I wrong?
Anyway, most of us have much better bottles than the examples that I am posting below.
Kind regards
Giovanni
