The 'Nanking cargo', was the well-documented VOC ship 'De Geldermalsen' which sunk during her homeward journey in 1752. The contents were salvaged by Captain Michael Hatcher and offered for sale at Christie's Amsterdam in the spring of 1986. Besides some finds of metalwork, bronzes and gold, the amount of porcelain retrieved was spectacular: more than 150,000 pieces and a great variety of shapes of export porcelain was present.
