*HISTORICALLY SPEAKING: As a result of the Cultural Revolution, 7 ceramic factories and research units were curtailed, 4 mines of porcelain clay were blocked, 2928 technicians were forced to work in other fields and 13 ceramics factories had to diversify their production to include other goods during 1966. Compared to 1960, the number of workers reduced by 40%. The revolution gave an incredible blow to the industry. This unique & rare design directly stems from and represents that specific time in history perpetuated by Japanese makers in response to China’s cultural changes... surviving its consequences. Serious buyers ONLY. Thank you for your interest.

During the Cultural Revolution, most Chinese economic activity was halted.]
