    I LOVE when the owners have an appreciation for what they have, especially when they clearly have invested some time in their own research. Her reaction when she heard it was Chinese porcelain was fabulous.

      Isn't that becoming a slave to materialism or something as a Buddhist? :) Should you even be worrying about trinkets/objects in Buddhism?

      ​@@email4664 It is about the most contradictory thing a Buddhist could say though isn't it? Anyone who is even slightly along the path would know that possessing anything is an illusion, let alone something that is desirable and pretty. Needing nice things to look at on an altar even raises more questions about the nature of the religious practice/meditation at hand. I am not trying to be a dick here, just thinking out loud and asking questions. So much of our lives are filled with nothing but distractions and over valuing the wrong things.

    Antiques in good condition. From China and around 1850. I would have expected more 🤔🤔

    • @Bunny-ch2ul
      @Bunny-ch2ul Před 2 lety +2

      For most ceramics, "good condition" means it might have a tiny chip or a bit of a rub somewhere, regardless of age. Noticeable chips, cracks, repairs, etc. all decrease the value by 50% or more for most types of pottery. There are exceptions, since some types of pottery are just so susceptible to wear (Majolica for example) but anything in porcelain shouldn't have any immediately obvious flaws to be considered "good condition." More than a tiny nick means "fair condition" at best.
      1850 also isn't that old, especially when discussing Eastern antiques.

      It still does. It’s American companies that pay for cheap materials and don’t pay companies that employe skilled workers that causes a lot of cheaper products to decline in durability. Some of the best medical equipment is made in China. It all comes down to cost for profit.

      @@Saraseeksthompson0211 The Chinese manufacturers themselves are notorious for cost-cutting. More often than not the American or foreign client will get ripped off, unless they're a major client and the Chinese side wants to keep the contract ongoing. You often need to have full-time employees (or the owner, if you're just starting out) from abroad just to maintain daily quality-control from the manufactuer.
      And you do realize there are Chinese brands too right? From small no-name brands to moderately well-known brands for toys and consumer electronics, they have inconsistent to poor quality. There are scandals within China over adulteration constantly: Fake baby-formula, fake food, fake medicine, even fake vaccines. Middle class Chinese people refuse to buy baby-formula in mainland China, they either buy it from Hong Kong or abroad.

    All these Chinese millionaires and billionaires are building up their Chinese art collections, and paying really good money to return ancient artifacts to the motherland. I remember that woman on Antiques Roadshow with the ancient Chinese Buddha statue, where the appraiser said it was worth $125,000. It turned out to be $2.1 million at auction! This woman better sell while the prices are hot--I bet she can get a good $500,000 from an over-eager Chinese millionaire at an auction!
