Hand made and painted from the mid 1950s - showing lovely painted wispy leaves and flowers to the outer surface of the ball.The Ball is approx 95mm diameter, and It weighs approx 500 grams. The beautiful ball is in an almost pristine condition except for the normal firing ‘blow’ hole and the marks left by the tri-legged stilt marks from the kiln firing - this ball has a small pressed de...pression where the ‘blow’ hole is positioned, to enable the ball to be steadily displayed. This is a TOP QUALITY porcelain ball, many that are put up for sale are crazed, chipped or cracked - hardly can they be called display items.It would make a great addition to any antique Chinese porcelain collection.
