Circa 1800-1820 Chinese Export Rose Mandarin Punch Bowl measuring 15 1/2" in diameter and measures 6 1/2" in depth. This is definetely a one of a kind punch bowl. It has a Single Motiff going completely around the bowl on the outside. It also has a continous border at the top of the bowl decorated with beautiful butterflies and roses. The inside of the bowl has the central scene on the bottom separated by the greek key border and four quadrants depicting the royal entourage of the emperor in his chariot being pulled by many of the people. One of the quadrants portrays a man chopping a pig's head. Very much gold in and out and through out in this wonderful bowl. Great Quality and fabulous detail telling a story. Excellent Condition with No Restoration.
