The Sir Percival David Foundation, established in honor of the British businessman, has donated a Chinese ceramic collection worth $1.27 billion to the British Museum.
Comprising 1,700 rare treasures, the collection stands as the most valuable donation ever given to a museum in the history of the United Kingdom.
The priceless ceramic collection was created by Sir Percival David, a British businessman whose love for China led him to learn Mandarin and start collecting in 1913.
