Thank you for viewing.
This item will be delivered via Raku Raku Mercari Bin.

This is a replica of the Chicken Cup.
It is unused with the box and in good condition.

In Chinese, it is called Ming Cheng Hua Dou Cai Ji Gang Bei.
Commonly known as the Chicken Cup.

It was made approximately 500 years ago as a ceremonial wine cup for the emperor.
Only the highest quality cups were allowed into the palace, and any that were not selected were crushed.
It is said that Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty always kept a pair of these wine cups before him to enjoy.
In 2014, this wine cup, made in the 15th century, was sold at a Sotheby's auction in Hong Kong to Chinese businessman Liu Yiqian for 281 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately 3.7 billion yen).
This set a record for the highest price ever achieved at auction for ancient Chinese porcelain.
