This plate was retrieved from the cau mau shipwreck , the ship set on fire and sunk in the 1700s , they were found by fisher men in 1990s , this plate was sold at auction at Sotheby's in Amsterdam in 2007. You can see the divers on mingwrecks.com.
Oh! That is cool stuff! I love it! All that blue and white China amongst the fish :) I hope that man put that squid bavk where he belongs :)))
I don't think he was thinking of the squid , lol I was amazed when I saw the video , you can still buy these off places like eBay but in a few years you won't be able to find any .
Incredible! What a treasure!
Thanks.
Jewels there is one on live auctioneers.com, it's much cheaper.
always nice to see , but there still quite a lot , an juxtaposed lozenge design (Trellis )
