Description: For sale is an antique Chinese pewter rice cooler. VERY UNIQUE! Click through to see this amazing item! This is a covered butter/rice? cooler/bowl with a polished and carved agate or jade insert on the top. This covered bowl also has an interior bowl which has a hammered finish. The entire exterior of this bowl has numerous pictographs and touchplates with what appears to be ancient chinese symbols/calligraphy. It also has a CHINA incised mark, probably added on when it was exported because it does not match any of the other more stylized writings on this piece. It also has gargoyles/lions on each side. It has achieved a dark, grey patina, as compared to the hammered interior bowl, which is still quite bright on the underside. There are a few very minor dings and scratches, but overall, this is a fantastic ecclectic piece of 19th-early 20th century pewter to add to your pewter or oriental collection.
