Hong Kong: An extremely rare Qing Dynasty bowl – one of only three known to exist – is expected to fetch US$25.6mil (RM100mil) and could even break the record for Chinese ceramics, auction house Sotheby’s said.
Measuring 14.7cm in diameter, the dainty pink bowl is decorated with falangcai (painted enamels combining Chinese and Western techniques) and flowers, including daffodils which are not typically depicted on Chinese porcelain.
