Delve into the charm of the 1930s with this authentic Chinese hand-painted porcelain plate, elegantly mounted with brass cladding. 

A testament to the artistry of its era, the plate boasts a vibrant multi-coloured palette, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Asian craftsmanship.  

Carefully preserved as an original piece, this antique collectible hails directly from China, carrying with it a narrative of its rich region of origin.  

Whether a sophisticated addition to your home decor or a treasured item for collectors, this plate is a stunning piece that transcends time.  

The plate was an export ware to Europe. The brass cladding was meant to keep food warm in Europe’s cold climate. 

Antique condition. Some corrosions on the brass. No chip no crack.

The battery is there for size comparison only. It has nothing to do with the item.

'Most of my collection is one of a kind. I bought the items because I liked it for myself. They were never intended to be resold. Each item has a story and when possible, I hand carried them in my luggage from all over the world to bring back to 

Australia. Some of the items have travelled a long way away and some of the items has been with me for more than 50 years. 

I am now retired and need to downsize. I will not be able to buy a similar item again and not able to sell it at the same price. If you buy an item from me, it most likely is the only one, I have. Not only you are buying an item you are also buying 50 years of experience. Thank you for bidding. 

I would like to thank my customers for their positive and encouraging feedbacks I received over the years. They are my credentials that money cannot buy. Your friendship and your support are very much appreciated and valued.  

I have a five-day postal policy. However, if I am able to send your items earlier, I will.
