Features: Except for one Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white glazed dragon-and-phoenix incense burner, all the artifacts in this book are porcelain from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. The ceramics selected in this volume are primarily from the collections of the Capital Museum, with additional fine pieces from institutions such as the Beijing Municipal Institute of Cultural Relics, Beijing Art Museum, Summer Palace Management Office, Ming Tombs Museum, and Beijing Cultural Relics Company, all of which hold historical, artistic, and scientific value. Due to space limitations, porcelain from the Daoguang era and later of the Qing Dynasty are not included. Among the selected ceramics, 91 pieces are unearthed artifacts, and 178 pieces are high-quality inherited works.
