| Video Discription | This magnificent and very rare large blue and white ‘Dragon’ jar was once used as an umbrella stand. After a team of Christie's specialists looked at the jar, they realised they were handling an incredibly important piece of Chinese porcelain from the Ming Dynasty. In this video, Chi Fan Tsang, a specialist in Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art, discusses the details that make this piece so special, including the significance of the five-clawed dragon, and the cross mark on the base of the vessel. The dragon jar sold in 2016 for HK$158,040,000 / $20,447,642 as part of the '30 Years: The Sale' auction on 30 May in Hong Kong.
