Another Chinese vase made its way to auction with a low estimate and soared beyond the consignor&#8217;s dreams as wealthy Asian collectors battled it out.\u00a0 A 15-inch tall blue, red and white &#8216;lotus&#8217; vase from the Yongzheng period just came across the auction block at a small auction house in Hampshire, UK. With the pre-sale estimate of a mere \u00a3400-600, the auctioneer was astounded when a phone bidder opened with a bid of \u00a3500,000. The battle raged on as three Asian collectors fought it out, by phone, internet and with a representative in the room. In the end, the collector who started it all was persistent and won the battle when he\/she placed the winning bid of \u00a31.3 ($1.61M). When the commission fees were added in, the total price for the vase set a record for the auction house&#8230;\u00a31.62M ($2.10M).<\/p>\n<p>You may be wondering (like I was), how are all these amazing and extremely valuable pieces of Chinese porcelain showing up in little sales in the UK?\u00a0 Well, it goes back to the mid-1800s. Basically, the United Kingdom and France fought with the Qing Dynasty over exporting opium, leading to the Second Opium War (1856-1860). The British and French troops destroyed the Emperor&#8217;s Summer Palace and it is believed that well over a million objects were taken and brought back to the UK &#8230; I would guess that most families today have no idea of the treasures that have been handed down.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, it happened again!
