Set of Six Vintage Chinese Floral Porcelain Rice Bowls

This is a uniform set of six small, round rice or tea bowls, likely of mid-to-late 20th-century Chinese origin. Each bowl is crafted from white glazed porcelain and features a transfer-ware design. The central motif is a colorful wicker basket overflowing with a bouquet of flowers in shades of yellow, purple, and green. Flanking this central image are pink scalloped or cloud-like geometric medallions containing gold-tone characters or symbols. The rims are finished with a delicate gold gilt line, which is also echoed near the foot of each bowl. Physically, these bowls appear to be approximately 4-5 inches in diameter with a standard footed base. The porcelain is thin and somewhat translucent, indicating a fair level of craftsmanship common for export-ware of that era. Regarding condition, the bowls appear to be in good vintage state with no visible cracks or large chips from this perspective; however, there is noticeable wear to the gold gilding on the rims, which is a common sign of age and regular use. Patina is minimal due to the glazed nature of the ceramic. The repetitive nature of the patterns suggests mass production using decals rather than hand-painting, though the application appears precise. This set represents a classic style of vintage kitchenware often found in Chinese-American households during the late 20th century.
