A rare example of Chinese porcelain at it's very best. This very large Charger has been hand decorated in the mid-1800s and tells a story of life in China during this period. A typical day in the life during the Qing Dynasty would be sitting around playing the game of Goa. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and is believed to be the oldest board game continuously played to the present day. The painting on this plate is extremely delicate and refined. This bowl is a museum-quality, to say the least. We have a matching bowl which is slightly smaller than this one so let us know if you are interested in a set. It has a separate listing for the same price. Comes with the silk box.
