Chinese Tek Sing Cargo Porcelain Bowl

Here we have an item from the The Tek Sing shipwreck, a historic event from 1822, unfolded in the vast expanse of the South China Sea. Laden with precious ceramics and other valuable cargo, the Chinese junk Tek Sing met a tragic fate beneath the waves. Discovered in 1999, this shipwreck has since revealed a treasure trove of archaeological wonders, shedding light on maritime history and trade in the region, all the recovered items were auctioned at Nagel auctions, Stuttgart, Germany in 2000 and many items still carry the auction stickers.

This piece is a hand decorated saucer.
