Puyi (1906-1967), known by his reign title Xuantong, was the last emperor of China. He ascended the Qing throne in 1908 at the age of two and became a symbolic ruler under the guidance of regents. Following the Xinhai Revolution, he abdicated in 1912, marking the end of over two thousand years of imperial rule in China.
Imperial porcelain produced during the Xuantong period represents the final phase of Qing Dynasty ceramic production. Because exceptionally little imperial porcelain was produced during his reign, pieces from this period are highly sought after and greatly valued.

溥仪（1906-1967），年号宣统，是中国最后一位皇帝。他于1908年两岁时登基，在摄政王的指导下成为象征性统治者。辛亥革命后，他在1912年退位，标志着中国两千多年的帝制结束。
宣统时期的御用瓷器代表了清代陶瓷生产的最后阶段。由于其在位期间生产的御用瓷器非常少，这一时期的器物极为珍贵且备受追捧。
【品相】
两只杯子仅有少量窑裂点，但无如暗线或崩口等缺陷，未经修复。
