Beautiful turn of the century vintage pierced china bowl... I don't believe
we've ever found a openwork border bowl so large, so old, or so nice, with a
border of hearts. This has no damage to the edging, no chips or cracks.
Amazing!
It's numbered on the reverse though has no makers marks, we're guessing
probably German or Austrian. It does show age to the foot, with slight
foxing.
This was probably displayed as a table centerpiece empty, it's showing worn
gold as a result of many many years of very careful dusting! There's no
noticeable wear to the floral design.
