A rare Pink-Ground Falangcai Bowl, which was believed to have been made during the period of Qing Emperor Kangxi (1662-1722 A.D.), is to be auctioned¹ at the Sotheby's Hong Kong Chinese Works of Art Spring Sale Series.

 

一件罕见的粉底珐琅彩碗将在苏士比中国香港艺术品春季拍卖会上拍卖，据悉该碗制作于清朝康熙年间（公元1662年-1722年）。

 

 

The bowl, which hasn't been on the market for over 30 years, is expected to fetch up to 26 million U.S. dollars.

 

Sotheby's held a media preview on Thursday. Nicolas Chow, Deputy Chairman of Sotheby's Asia, said "there is extraordinary quality and breadth in our offerings of Chinese art this season, with possibly the finest assemblage of Qing porcelain² on offer in recent memory."

 

This year's sales will take place on April 3 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre and will offer about 300 items with a total estimate of nearly 95 million U.S. dollars.
