Chicken Cup Replica - Same Size as the Real Thing - Bowl-shaped vessel made of Chinese porcelain, painted using the Doucai technique. [3.7 Billion Yen] The Chicken Cup that shocked the world, called "Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup" in Chinese. Commonly known as the "Chicken Cup." This cup was made about 500 years ago as a drinking vessel for the emperor. Only the highest quality of these cups entered the imperial court, and those that were not selected were all crushed. The Ming Emperor Wanli is said to have always enjoyed a pair of these cups in front of him. In 2014, this cup, made in the 15th century, was auctioned by Sotheby's in Hong Kong and was purchased by Chinese businessman Liu Yiqian for HK$281 million (approximately 3.7 billion yen). It set a record for the highest price ever for ancient Chinese porcelain at auction. Businessman Liu Yiqian won the bid by phone. When the hammer fell, applause erupted in the packed venue. Others are housed in museums in Beijing, Taiwan, London, New York, etc. The National Palace Museum in Taiwan has the most, with 6 pieces, which are on permanent display. Doucai (闘彩), in Japan, is called "豆彩 (Tousai)" because the color painting uses a fresh, pale green glaze similar to green beans. In China, from the way it is fired, the outline is first drawn with blue and white, a transparent glaze is applied, and the shape is made at a high temperature of 1300 degrees. Then, red, green, and yellow are added on top of the transparent glaze, and the finished product is made by low-temperature firing. The various colors of overglaze and underglaze appear vividly on the finished product, as if competing in beauty, hence the name "Doucai." The Doucai technique was born in the early years of the Chenghua era of the Ming Dynasty, but the technical requirements were very difficult, and it was difficult to produce good ones. The "Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup" is considered the masterpiece. The Chicken Cup is a bowl-shaped vessel made of Chinese porcelain, painted using the Doucai technique. The Chicken Cup was made during the reign of the Chenghua Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and originally functioned as a vessel for drinking wine. The Chenghua Chicken Cup was made in the imperial kilns of the Jingdezhen porcelain factory in southern China. The Chenghua Emperor created the Chicken Cup as a devoted act for the Empress Dowager in the 15th century.
