This bowl is decorated with the 13 Western Hongs, including the american hong. Located on the Pearl River in Canton in China. During the late 18TH Century, these factories or hongs served western traders as warehouses, offices and residences. This trading system was established in 1757 by the Manchu Dynasty to eliminate contact between the chinese people and "FOREIGN DEVILS". This is a Reproduction made by Mottahedeh for the Winterthur Museum in Wilmington, Dd3elaware. Antique Chinese Export Hong Bowls from the 18TH. Century bring over $100,000.00 at Auctions and Antique Shows. Mildred and Raffi Mottahedeh were one of the if vnot larges collectors of chinese export porcelain from the 18TH and 19TH Century.
They loved it so much, they opened up a factory in Portugal many years ago to reproduce these fine antique examples.
