The boat’s captain, Captain Trang, reportedly decided to fish exclusively for these pots after an antiques dealer in Hoi An bought his first yield ‘for a good price’ (Pope 2007: 37). Before long, other crews had noticed what was happening, and soon there were numerous fishing teams using their nets to harvest saleable pots: ‘Huge dishes, ornate dragon sculptures, and delicate vases were picked out of the nets and sold straight to the dealers’ (Pope 2007: 40).}- Discovery (source: https://traffickingculture.org/encyclopedia/case-studies/hoi-an-shiwreck/) please contact me for any question you may have before bidding bid with confidence please visit my store (omid5) for more items like this thanks for looking michaan 012021 1m23n1 # 2358
