It is a copy of a lidded vase from the tomb of Princess Ancheng (1384-1443), currently on display in the Nanjing Museum. Ceramics with underglaze copper-red decoration are very rare, due to their complicated production process, and originals in the past have fetched over $10 million. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDuring the firing process, the copper used to produce the rich raspberry red tones is difficult to control often turning grey or colourless if not handled by an experienced potter. This vase is hand made on the traditional potters wheel. It is then decorated by hand before firing.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePorcelain is steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history.
