These are quite a find with all pieces being intact and in very good condition. LOOK CLOSELY AT THE PICTURES OF THE BOTTOM OF EACH PORCELAIN PLANTER AS THEY MAY HAVE BEEN GROUND DOWN, AT SOME POINT, TO REMOVE THE 4 FEET THAT EACH ORIGINALLY HAD. ALSO, THE TOP RIMS OF EACH PORCELAIN PLANTER MAY HAVE BEEN GROUND DOWN A LITTLE BIT AT SOME POINT TOO. NOT TOO MUCH WAS GROUND DOWN THOUGH BECAUSE THE COPPER LINERS FIT SNUGLY INSIDE OF EACH PLANTER. IF A LOT WAS GROUND DOWN ON THE TOP THEN THE COPPER LINERS WOULD STICK OUT ABOVE THE RIMS...
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE OFFERS BEFORE EXAMINING ALL OF THE PICTURES. The wooden bases feature hand carved scenes of trees, houses and a boat. The handpainted porcelain scenes on the planters feature the same scenes plus mountains and people in boats (see pictures). ANTIQUE PAIR CHINESE QING PORCELAIN PLANTERS W/ WOODEN STANDS & COPPER LINERS. IF A LOT OF THE RIMS WERE GROUND DOWN ON THE TOP THEN THE COPPER LINERS WOULD STICK OUT ABOVE THE RIMS...
No chips, cracks or repairs to the porcelain planters. The wooden bases are in very good condition, as well, with no breaks or repairs. They have some water stains on the tops from usage but those aren't seen when the planters are in place on top of the bases. The copper liners have no dents or repairs either (they could use some cleaning on the interior though). There are some "palmeye" pops in the glaze on the interior of the planters.
The porcelain planters each have "4 character" markings on the bottom that are hand painted in red paint (see pictures). The planters measure 4 1/2" tall when seated on its stand, 9" wide at the oval top and approximately 7 long at the top.The wooden base measures 9 1/2" wide, 7" long and 1 tall.
