Accurate Description of Item
Large Oriental Fish Bowl Planter
Appraiser Remarks
Based on the images and the markings this piece is quite modern, similar fish bowls and stands are still in production in China for the Decorator market. Before the 1970's Hong Kong was the gateway to Chinese products, an open port on the coast of a highly controlled communist country.
The marking reads "Tongzhi Nian Zhi-"Tongzhi Period Make", but is not a genuine period marking.. The date is uncertain, but the general looks seems to suggest it dates from third quarter of the 20th century.
