Early 19th Century Chinese Tek Sing Small Ceramic Bowl (2) Garden Furniture It is hand-crafted from elmThis quaint bowl originated in China within the Qing dynasty. This porcelain bowl is from the shipwreck, Tek Sing. The interesting illustration in the middle we think resembles a flower. Unfortunately, due to the age of this piece, there is some nibbling around the edge but this only adds to the antique beauty of the bowl. This bowl would make a perfect unique jewellery holder or an interesting piece of decor. Dimensions are as follows: H 2cm, W 8.
