Lang-Kiln Red-Glazed Vase.

At the request of Qing Emperor Kangxi, this red-glazed vase was produced in China's "porcelain capital" of Jingdezhen, under the supervision of Jiangxi governor Lang Tingji. It is regarded as a rare jewel among the porcelain collections in the Palace Museum due to the artists' exceptional craftsmanship and use of superior materials.
