Chinese blue-on-white porcelain bowl, tree and plants motif, intact. 704 grams, 10-13/16" in diameter and 2-1/4" tall. The best aspect of this completely intact piece is its dark, vivid blue color, the design some sort of a swamp scene with one clear palm tree and what might be a large bird with five feathers and another figure with limbs next to the tree that could be a frog or human, with no chips or frits and only a couple hairline cracks near the rim that appear to be under the still-glossy glaze. With original Christie's (March 1993) lot-sticker #877/10. Recovered from: Diana, sunk in 1817 off Malaysia
