Modern Porcelain Replicas 一 Imperial Elegance Revived Peachbloom ware of the Kangxi (1662-1722) period has been the most prized among the imperial stationery of the Qing court. Apart from the subdued and pleasing glaze, the forms are exquisite and elegant. The Shangyin Jingshe has commissioned experienced potters at Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province, to reproduce a three-piece set of the Kangxi peachbloom imperial stationery from the Art Museum collection. The set comprises a beehive washer, a seal vermilion box, and a brush washer. The original incised chi- dragon roundels are replaced by the Art Museum emblem. The replicas are fired in a limited edition in celadon and white glaze. Fifty numbered sets of each colour, each with serial number, certificate and gift box, are on sale for the benefit of the Art Museum. The price of each set is HK$3,800. The original peachbloom set and the replicas are now on display as part of the exhibition Objects for the Scholar's Desk in the West-wing Galleries of the Art Museum. 6 第二三五期 二零零四年二月十九日
