The British Museum China exhibit is very easy to look at. If you search "China", you get several results with different topics such as Chinese Art, Chinese New Year, and many more. The website allows you to download documents which can also be very useful.

Three objects that can be found in the China Exhibit are,

1.) Blue and white porcelain fish dish. This circular dish i made of prcelain and is decorated with beautiful blue painted floweres, and a fish.

2.)Bronze Zun. This Bronze Zun is greensih and looks like two rams standing back to back. A Zun, is a ritual wine vessel.

3.)Jade Pendent. This jade pendant is a cream color and is a dragon chasing its tail. It kind of looks like a sericulture.

My favorite activity on the British Museum China Exhibit was the "tour" o Chinese New Year. It was a slideshow consisting of objects used on/ for Chinese New Year.
