    A porcelain pea pod! It was bought together with an aubergine eggplant which I will post next.
    It is molded porcelain and the leaves and stems are painted with enamel.

      Thanks Efesgirl and Valentino97 - that book was just being used to prop up the pea pod - it is a book about hidden meanings in Chinese art

      The Chinese rebus is fascinating - and yes valentino97 you are probably right about the significance of the pea pod
