Stunning Peacock Royal Porcelain Arcadia Large Bowl Intricately Decorated From T

Description

This bowl is absolutely stunning!  The peacock and colors are beautifully rendered.  It is large and quite heavy weighing in at nearly 4 pounds. 9 1/4 inches across, 4 inches high.  Feels like a very good quality piece. Please see the pictures for the "damage" that is not really damage.  There is grey colored rubbed areas where it was rubbed up against other items, probably from being stored in a tightly packed display case of other porcelain items.  I have seen this grey discoloration before and am not sure what you call it or if it can be removed, I have not tried myself.  There is also a small grey mark that looks to be a flaw in the firing or processing of the bowl.  This came from a high end estate sale in Wellington, FL so I do not know the history of it.  The shipping is high due to the size and weight.  I do offer local pickup from my (day-job) office.  See more info below.  Happiest of bidding!

Also look in areas it may have been hidden.  I make every effort to ship out within 3 working days of receiving payment, usually sooner. I will combine shipping if possible, to save you shipping fees.

Local Pickup is FREE, from my office in a safe area of Port St. Lucie, Florida.  Bring your own packaging supplies and make sure to schedule ahead of time.
Packaging – I do sometimes use recycled or previously used boxes and packing materials

I do this to keep the cost of shipping down for you.   I sanitize as best I can.
Item Sourcing – I scour mostly high-end estate sales or estate auctions. I offer quite the eclectic array of items. Since I cannot control the environment the item comes from, I do make an effort to get clean, and non-smelly items.  I do not wash or polish anything, however I will do a light dusting.  I pick items that I would enjoy myself or tickle my fancy. I am not an expert on anything but I am trying to learn as I go.
Speaking of my own home – I have never smoked, I do have lazy cats and happy dogs. My home is free of viruses and other such concerns. I have always been a hand sanitizer nut.
