Ming Dynasty (c. 1368-1644) In 1368 Zhu Yuanzhang
proclaimed himself Emperor and set up the capital in Nanjing.
In 1421 the 3rd emperor of the Ming reign moved the capital to
Beijing. This is known as the great age of scholarship. Buddhist
sculpture declined. Boldly sculpted and brightly colored tiles are
typical of the Ming Dynasty, and there was a love for color and
luxurious living. The Blue and White porcelain technique of the
Yuan was refined, and the popularity of these artistic creations
soared.!

Historical Value - Antiques bring the standards of haute couture
into the home. Antiquities are works of art or utilitarian objects
from ancient times, which have normally been excavated from
tombs or historical sites. The huge worldwide demand for these
ancient and often beautiful pieces has led to a critical shortage
and therefore prices have soared to an unprecedented higher
level.
