I'm pretty sure i saw this one! It was in the national museum in Taibei, Taiwan. Definitely worth the travel, an incredible musuem with some real treasurea. The Jadeite Cabbage, the Meat Shaped Stone, some real old bronzeware and the amazing paintings of Qing dynasty Jesuit painter Giuseppe Castaliglione.
