Recently, Vietnamese fishermen have discovered more ancient ship wreck artifacts off the southern coast of Vietnam near Vung Tau. These porcelain artifacts are similar to the items from the famous Hoi An treasure hoard. The original blue glaze is well preserved. With the discovery of previously unknown ceramic forms and design, the historical and artistic relationship between Vietnam and China has been redefined and the quality from this little known chapter of Vietnamese artistic tradition has been recognized. This piece was purchased in an antique shop in Saigon.
