It is Very Rare that you will find a Chinese Export Carp Tureen or also referred to as a Fish Tureen, with a orange-red fish flopped on it's side with it's head and tail curling up and with a small carp perched on it's cover serving as a knop or a finial. Several months ago I sold one manufactured by Mottahedah that is still showed on my web site. It sold on ebay for $2,000.00. Previous to that one a real chinese export Fish Tureen almost identical or I should say that the Mottahedah one was identical to this real one that sold at Christies in New York on January 26,2006 for $168,000. This surely made the exact replica made by Mottahedah to be quite a bargain. We now have come up with another of these fish tureens and it is not Mottahehah but it is in my opinion a late 19th Century Chinese Export Fish/Carp Tureen. Wonderful Orange and Salmon Colors with gold gilding. Gilding is worn in a few spots from being handled over the years. It measures 17" from the fishs mouth to his tail. A wonderful small carp as a handle for the cover. It is definetely not a NEW CHINESE REPRODUCTION. WE HAVE MANY MORE IMAGES THAT ARE AVAILABLY UPON REQUEST.
