Add a vibrant touch of traditional artistry to your collection with this gorgeous vintage Chinese porcelain lidded bowl. Featuring the classic, highly collectible rooster motif, this piece is stamped on the bottom with the Ming Li (明麗) mark ("Bright and Beautiful") alongside "Made in China," dating it to the mid-to-late 20th century.

The bowl and lid are beautifully adorned with hand-painted roosters amidst scholar rocks, blooming peonies, and traditional bok choy/cabbage details—a motif rich in cultural symbolism representing wealth, good fortune, and prosperity. The vibrant colorway is beautifully framed by delicate gold gilt trim along the rims and the lid's handle.

Condition:

Good overall vintage condition with beautiful color retention. No chips, cracks, or major flaws. True to its hand-crafted vintage nature, it exhibits minor character marks including a tiny kiln pinprick spot near the rim, a green paint speck on the upper gold trim line, and light authentic wear to the gold gilt and unglazed base rim consistent with age.
