This Chinese porcelain bowl made over 1000 years ago celebrates imperfection – whether in life, love or pots. It was made to celebrate a marriage, but during firing process the pot cracked. Rather than starting again the potter has used gold leaf to make a repair. The Harris has a small but significant collection of ceramics from around the world – ranging from ancient Etruscan vases to Hispano-Moresque lustreware and Mexican blackware.
