Chinese Export Porcelain fruit basket matching plate American Ship Lowestoft

Description

Highly decorative and intricately made, this Chinese Export pierced bowl with matching plate is a stunner. Originally a fruit basket it clearly stands out on its own today as a table center-piece. Unmarked but unmistakably chinese porcelain for the US. The ship on each plate is generic as was typical at the time but was modified for the US market with the US flag on the central mast. Rare to find the reticulated basket with its matching plate.
Plate is 7 1/2" x 8 3/4"
Bowl is  7 3/4" x 9" x 3" tall
Very good condition.
