Comments:Gift of the Keller collection of Asian trade ceramics in 2010Jessica Harrison-HallDuring the 1960s, Dale and Patricia Keller, the internationally renowned interior designers, collected Thai and Chinese ceramics from the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia. Their generous gift complements our existing holdings to help tell the story of inter-Asian trade between the 12th and 17th centuries. Trade ceramics are a focus of research for the Museum. Together with the V&A, we sent an exhibition to the National Museum of China in Beijing for 2012 which had a major component of Chinese trade-ceramics. Many of the Keller’s Chinese pots were made in southern China in kilns in Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang province. Some come from the international port Quanzhou, called Zayton by Marco Polo, the largest seaport in Asia during the Song to Yuan period.
