Comments

The round, white, Chinese export porcelain bowl stands on a vertical foot ring.  The body is decorated with a band of green and gilded floral swags below a leafy vine and two blue lines near the rim.  A green and gilded chain or guioche runs around the inside of the bowl near the rim.  A pseudo-armorial device rendered in green, purple, and red decorates the outside of the body.
