Kosometsuke Antique Chinese 17c Ming Dynasty Dish Porcelain Lotus
Description
Description
A very nice blue and white Dish with lotus flower. Chenghua marked but of later period. Box included.
Lian Hua
(lotus) is also called ‘
he hua
(荷花)’. It is different from ‘
shui lian
(睡莲, water lily)’ which is another kind of water plant.
The first character of lotus in Chinese, ‘
lian
(莲)’, has been used to pun for ‘
lian
(廉)’ which means being fair and uncorrupted in one’s official position.
Twin-headed lotus flower (‘
bing di lian
并蒂莲’) refers ‘a loving relationship’. See ‘并蒂双贵’ (May you couple live a harmonious life and enjoy prestige).

Shipping Rules
FOR ALL PACKAGES OUTSIDE EUROPE:
Shipping times can vary a lot depending on Customs & Shipping Company speed. We can not control this. For China (& rest of Asia) & US allow at least 2 to 3 weeks. Depending on the situation it can take up to 1.5 month. Rare cases of even 2 months have been seen to CHINA (and rest of ASIA), this has to do with slow customs procedures. This also influences the tracking data shown online.
Please be patient!
