Antique /Vintage hand painted Chinese tea bowl - late 18th/early 19th Century:
$6.86

A very pretty handpainted antique/vintage Oriental tea bowl.
I believe it dates from circa late 1800s/early 1900s but do not have an exact date of manufacture.
It has domestic scenes to its main body namely a man looking from a window, a man and woman talking to another man.
The inside of the rim of the bowl decorated with dark pink floral decorations
with another floral decoration/maker\'s mark? to the bottom of the bowl.
There are also firing marks to the bottom of the bowl.
Approximate dimensions:
Width across the top: 7cms
Width across base: 3.5 cms
Depth: 5 cms
Circumference: 22 cms
Weight: 56 grams.
Overall its condition for its age is good.
There is a chip to the rim and an attempt to restore this has been made.
There is also a hair line crack from a section of the rim measuring 0.5 cms in length
going down the body of the cup.
Some of the paint is faded in places, especially inside the rim.
These faults however do not detract from the item\'s attractiveness.
A very pretty item.
