The Condition is Excellent which is extremely rare to find in this remarkable item considering the age. The underplate is 6" in diameter and beside a few nibbles,frits on the edge the underneath, this piece is in perfect condition. Amazing the vine feet have never been broken. The entire piece front and back has been impressed to replicate a lily-pad or other leafs. The fluted edge is decorated in rouge-de-fer and a lime green. The center decoration is famille rose with two sepia or brown pomegranites with gilded speckles. The bowl itself is lotus is 4" in diameter by 2 1/2" tall. A lotus shape with applied flowers. The lip is scalloped and decorated to match the saucer and lid with the same rouge de fer and lime green border. Their is very little wear to the enamels or gilding.
