Description

The lively trading port of Canton was the outlet for the extraordinary Chinese porcelains avidly sought by westerners who had not yet discovered the clay or the skills to reproduce them. Precious spices like cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and others were rare commodities traded along the caravan routes from China to Byzantium, influencing the world’s cuisines as they became available. Tea first became known in Holland and then England in the 17th century. These valuable wares were eagerly embraced by cultures around the globe. It was an age of world discovery.
