Yue Kiln, Tang Dynasty poetry, and Qianlong Era pieces—a blend of items from different periods—were so incongruous that even an amateur like Huo Sining could see right through them. Yet, they oddly fit the taste of foreign friends.
To aid in sales, export porcelain would often be tagged as antiques. Foreigners, who only had a superficial understanding of Huaxia culture, usually did not investigate whether the items they bought were real or fake, as long as they had the right "flavor".
Therefore, crafts with an ancient charm were very popular in the international market, and they were not concerned about the scripts from different periods that appeared on these crafts.
This kind of practice was most common in Jingdezhen because it had the most export porcelain. So Huo Sining also thought it was no surprise. She took one from the bunch, found that the Heavenly Eye did not detect anything unusual, and decided to put the porcelain bowl back in its place without looking further.
