Dutch art consultant Johan Bosch van Rosenthal recalls how he happened upon the vase during a visit to the home of an elderly client who had inherited it. A telephone call to Sotheby’s Asia Chairman Nicolas Chow started a journey of rediscovery that revealed the vase to be a masterpiece from the Qianlong period. One of the most complex and exquisite porcelains ever to emerge on the market, The Harry Garner Reticulated Vase (11 July | Hong Kong), is a technical masterpiece and the culmination of centuries of Chinese ingenuity.
