Circa 1770 Chinese Export RARE Scalloped Edge Tobacco Leaf Platter measuring 17" X 14" X 1 1/2" in Depth. GUARANTEED TO BE THE REAL DEAL 100%. This is Good as it Gets. It is oval in shape with a scalloped edge that comes to a little point on top. The colors are bright and crisp and the tobacco leaf design is truly gorgeous and just breath taking as are all the other VIVID Colors in this wonderful design. Sime very Minor Slight Wear to the outer edge and a few scratches to the platter itself apparently when used as a a meat platter many, many years ago. I am jus mentioning this and the wear is very minor. The Colors are Extremely Vibrant in this Platter. On January 26,2006 at Christe's New York Auction during Americana Week there were two tobacco leaf platters that were offered for sale. We do not know the condition of these platters. A 12 1/8"
Tobacco Leaf Scalloped Platter sold for $8400.00 and a 18" Tobacco Leaf Scalloped Platter sold for $15,600.00
