<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 10456458, member: 79705&quot;]China generally restricts export of anything before a certain date, and domestic trade is restricted in certain cases (ie archeological sources). So if it&#039;s an auction house outside of China, then the provenance would have to show a sale before those laws were in place. Even so, China pursues repatriation and certain Chinese ultra-rich will buy things to return them to China.</p><p><br /></p><p>A site with <a href="https://www.chinese-antique-porcelain.com/china-export-restrictions.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.chinese-antique-porcelain.com/china-export-restrictions.html" rel="nofollow">more info on restrictions</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>China is of course not the only country that does this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
