Vintage 1960's Chinese Export Famille Verte Soup or Rice Bowl Cabbage Butterfly

Description

Absolutely stunning soup or rice bowl from 1960, it is dated by the red back stamp which reads: " Decorated in Hong Kong" this is a highly prized Famille Verte pattern commonly referred to as "Gold Cabbage & Butterflies". The elaborate & delicate images are enamelled, the colors are vivid. It's amazing to think this pattern was free hand painted by highly skilled artisans in Hong Kong. The porcelain in semi-translucent and perfect.
This set has been in a 1 family Colorado estate since 1960 and never used to serve food. At the time of purchase I have 2 available , each photo shown is a different bowl to show the slight variations.
The bowl is 4" in diameter, the bottom rim is 1 1/2" in diameter, it is slightly flared and 2 1/2" tall.
The condition is remarkable. Vivid color. Just beautiful !
