Summary:
The focus of this podcast narrated by Neil MacGregor is a small lacquer cup. The cup was probably a gift or given instead of a salary. These cups were very hard to make and thus as a gift became a binding token of the relationship. Neil and experts examine the cup and its political ramifications. Expertly done, it is a delight to listen to this podcast.
