An specialist in Chinese ceramics shows a pair of rare models of pagodas believed to have been made in the late Qianlong period around 1750 to 1800. Christie's is selling 300 lots of Chinese ceramics and works of art today, the beginning of its Asian Art Week in London. Standing 263 centimeters tall, the pair could fetch more than US$460,000. Porcelain pagodas of such a size are extremely rare. In 2008, a fraction of such a pagoda fetched 108,000 pounds (US$165,000).
