Masterpieces of Chinese Export Porcelain: from the Mottahedeh Collection in the Virginia Museum

The Mottahedeh Swan Service is wonderful, you can probably find a picture of it on the internet.  It is discontinued, which makes it valuable to collectors, and very hard to find.  I stumbled on a whole dinner collection in Palm Springs, California years ago, and did not know enough at the time to buy it , because now a coffe pot without the lid goes for over $400 .  What beauty to behold...
