Namaste.
I would appreciate hearing from those scholars who's expertise lies in the field of ancient Chinese porcelain and who are able to grasp and appreciate the points that I am raising with respects to my sculpture.

The act of writing was to our ancient ancestors considered to be magic in and of itself. And with that theme in mind, the ancients in there ultimate wisdom went to extroadinary lengths to make it abundantly clear across all time....

I'm not sure that I am "able to grasp and appreciate the points that I (You) am raising with respects to my sculpture" but to me, at least, it doesn't appear to be particularly old -- though it is quite elegant.
