<p>[QUOTE="kardinalisimo, post: 290566, member: 118"]Well, that was 2 years ago and my knowledge in Chinese porcelain was not that good but still the quality was remarkable. Actually, I did know that very similar pots were sold for about 200-300k but I have seen only pictures and never handled one. Nobody from the bidders was sure.</p><p>If I have seen the same pot recently at local auction, even without knowing for how much the previous one was sold, I would have bid more.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bercrystal, I think you did good for 2012. The plaque's value might be more now but I doubt it would fetch many figures. The teapot has the imperial Qianlong mark and don't forget the calligraphy, a very important thing for old pieces.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
