"museums around the world are full of the most exquisite, achingly beautiful pieces of craftsmanship *ever made* from China "
Everything fitting that description - even in the Shanghai Museum itself - is pre-Mao, pre-Cultural Revolution. I've been to that museum and others within China numerous times. Your description does not apply to the state of Chinese craftsmanship today.
