NOTE: All our products are antique or vintage. We strive to purchase and present only items in good to near-mint condition, but most pieces will show some degree of wear that we try to describe and show in our pictures.
Interest in Chinese icons from the 1960s to the mid-70s has continued to grow beyond being mere collectors' items. Today, each figurine would cost as much, if not more, as all seven did then. One major recent change has been the inclusion of Cultural Revolution memorabilia - once dismissed as kitsch collectables - in the world of museum-quality fine art, as demonstrated by the figurines included in a recent exhibition at the Chinese University Art Museum of 20th century porcelain from the kilns at Jingdezhen.
Ending today, it's one of the first museum shows in Hong Kong to showcase these kinds of works.
