This lovely early 20th century Chinese Canton sweet meat set features beautifully hand-painted porcelain dishes arranged within a round fitted case. Each removable segment is richly decorated with vibrant floral and foliate motifs in a palette of red, blue, green, and gold accents—an eye-catching example of traditional Canton famille rose–style enameling. The central bowl and surrounding divided trays make it perfect for serving sweets, nuts, or small delicacies when entertaining.
The porcelain pieces rest neatly inside a circular wooden case with a matching fitted lid, allowing the set to be stored or presented as a complete centerpiece. Whether displayed open to showcase the intricate artistry or closed as a refined decorative object, it brings a touch of cultural history and elegance to the table. Sets like this were commonly gifted and used during celebrations, symbolizing hospitality and abundance.
In nice antique condition with surface wear to the wooden case from age and handling. A wonderful collectible for lovers of Chinese export porcelain and unique decorative serving pieces. 3h x 13w x 13d
