  •  I have had full sets of these in kingfisher for sale and sold years ago. I don't have anything like this now for sale.  I got these years ago when i was in Hong Kong and also purchased them here when they were available and before Chinese buyers started coming.

  •  Well at least the country has woken up! We appreciated these things for a long time and we and Europe had a history of importing and desiring Asian things for hundreds of years.  Now it's good at least the younger generations like them again and want to own them and put a value on them.  I'm happy they are going back to China .
