To the first commenter here, I want to say that for an auto-didactic student of Chinese and other Asian Art, I am most grateful to the presenter here for his attention to the fine details of this amazing piece of Imperial Art. For example, I had no idea that the endless knot represents the Buddha's entrails. I am fascinated by Imperial Chinese culture, and I learn through all kinds of means - audio, visual, and the written word. So thank you to the Antiques Roadshow!
That pot could do with a visit to Kirsten Ramsay at The Repair Shop! The owner seems low-keyed upon learning the pot was a piece of Imperial Chinese porcelain.
Is that repairable to the point where it's hard to tell that it was ever broken? I know they have come a long way with many things to repair these pieces, but I don't know I am not a specialist in pottery
I mean a curator or someone specialized would be able to tell most likely but you could have it restored to where to the untrained eye you'd never know it had been broken.

cute pot
Kin-lung. I like this pronunciation.
Nice
Lovely
Does it have a lid
It never had a lid.
1:35 no it has nothing to do with marital harmony. Fish pronouces as MORE in Chinese
Ao fish fish means more and more just a good wish for prosperity.
The fish has nothing to do with martial harmony?
No, has nothing to do with it at all. Otherwise, those wouldn't be twin fishes, instead should be very clearly marked as male and female.
"it's called a Ho"
cue to her face at 0:40
Good price for something sitting at home collecting dust.

was reading a book in Reading.... explain.. why Redding pronounced... Wooster, Worchestor... kind ' a stupid isn't it...
Featherstonehaugh, pronounced Fanshaw.
to uncultured people everything unusual seems "kind 'a stupid"...
Another stolen artifact I'm guessing!
Stolen? From where?
A flimsy guess at best
Like your mom!
If real probably when the brits ransacked The Old Summer Palace . Foot, cobalt work, and damage look convincing@@Ubique2927
We took everything from China 😂 Even this silly trinket
Except for everything they destroyed during their "Cultural Revolution".
There it is,the dumbest thing I've read today
Look here buddy, we don't need the two-hour documentary on the damn thing. just tell us the resale price !!!
I like the description, that’s what helps him date it and evaluate the value.
Well done for managing to get through the whole 3 mins and12 seconds. We're all really proud of you. Good boy.
If you only want to know a value , and not be educated about why, then this is the wrong programme for you
I know I was surprised myself. thanks. @@_Opal_Miner_
@@juliaclarke2978I am very glad that you uttered that remark.
He is close to being an iconoclast!
