While international conventions prohibited the illicit import and export of cultural properties in 1970 and 1995, respectively, Guan said the process is often tricky, especially with artifacts lost before 1970.

"This repatriation from Italy offers a crucial reference," he said. "But each case requires a plan tailored to its specific situation."
