Time Remaining:

Bidding starts in 0d 3h 38m

Two Vintage Chinese Jingdezhen Butterfly Bowls • These are hand-painted porcelain pieces dating from the 1960's to the 1980's. • They feature a polychrome "famille rose" design of vibrant butterflies and flowers on a white background. • In Chinese culture, the butterfly is a symbol of joy, longevity, and marriage. The association with longevity stems from a pun: the Chinese word for butterfly sounds similar to the term for being 70 to 80 years of age. • These bowls have intricate scrollwork and hand-painted motifs in red, green, and purple. Because they are hand- painted, slight variations exist between individual pieces. • The "07" code on the bottom of the bowls refers to the Hongguang Porcelain Factory («I#/) in Jingdezhen. • In excellent condition, no cracks, breaks, or chips. Some wear to the enamels. View images. • 14 cm. x 9 cm. x 9 cm. Dimensions: 14 cm. x 9 cm. x 9 cm. Pickup category timeslot {A}
