Antiques Appreciation Class


Porcelains from the Ming and Qing dynasties are highly sought by collectors of Chinese art. Their intrinsic beauty, fine craftsmanship and spiraling value have fuelled a steady increase in demand. Whether your interest is that of curiosity or collector, this class is a rare opportunity to increase your knowledge of Chinese ceramic history.

Mr Chak's interest in antiques began at the early age of 16 when he was hired as an antiques apprentice. Today, his career as a dealer and expert appraiser spans more than three decades, having opened his first shop in 1973. William's eye for quality is well known and, as a collector himself, he is always on the watch for unique pieces. This hands-on class, held in his shop on Hollywood Road, will introduce you to many different types of Chinese ceramic wares with an emphasis on pieces from the Sung, Ming and Qing dynasties.
