Even though she didn't know why the original owner of this Xuande Furnace did this, it was indeed a good thing for Huo Sining. The price of a Qing imitation and an original from the Xuande Dynasty differed by nearly ten times. Since she encountered such a good thing and could buy it at the price of a Qing imitation, she'd be a fool not to take it.
Although she didn't know how many Ming Ding Incense Burners were made back then, the one look at this incense burner and you could tell it was a royal item. There weren't many halls in the Forbidden City where incense could be burned, so Huo Sining estimated that there wouldn't be many of these incense burners, and even fewer would have survived.
