Pattern: Antique Bowl, Hand Painted Oriental Floral
Made in Japan
Antique: 1911 - 1921
Details: This is a very beautiful, and very old bowl. It is hand painted all along the border with carnations, spider mums and other smaller flowers. There are green and gray leaves and the band of flowers is bordered in gold on the top and bottom. The bowl has very pretty pierced built-in handles, and if that wasn't enough to make you fall in love with it, the shape will. This porcelain bowl has been shaped into waves/swirls that really makes this a stand-out bowl. It is made of very fine porcelain, very translucent. The bowl is stamped on the back: "Hand Painted Nippon" and the M within a laurel wreath. The "M" is for "Morimura", this mark was used for Japanese imports and was introduced in 1911 and used until 1921. This eventually became the mark for Noritake. Gorgeous piece for decor with potpourri or simply on its own, we don't believe it is food safe. Great Mother's Day or hostess gift!
