Hi all,
I recently had the opportunity to visit the YiXing ceramics museum. My wife and I tried to photograph as much as we could. I thought people might like to see some of the wares housed in the museum. We did not get a chance to photograph the ancient stuff, but we did get to capture some of the modern classics that you see knock-offs of all over eBay!
I'm new to the forum so bear with me. Here's a link:

Absolutely amazing! The level of artistry in those pieces is simply out of this world. Now we see why authentic Jiang Rong or Chen Mingyuan pieces command such high prices and why they are so frequently copied.

Sure! I'll try to get some in here tonight. Glad you're enjoying it. I'll post some from the Flagstaff Tea Ware Museum in Hong Kong when I get a chance. The nice thing there is that they have prize winning pieces from current up-and-comers too.
