Description: Condition: Considering the age, this is in very good condition, some rough spots along the edge could be due to manufacturing or use, no cracks, breaks, flea bites, or crazing. Description: Because of its thinness, it is called bodiless ware. Eggshell porcelain is characterized by an extremely thin body under the glaze. It is often engraved before firing, so that the engraving can only be seen when held up to the light. Hand painted with dragons, chrysanthemums, cherry blossoms and daisy's. A bright white ground with pinks, greens, yellows. Very thin you can see the light shine through.The effort to produce and decorate an unfired piece of porcelain of this thinness must have been great. They are so fragile it is with wonder that any of the early pieces remain intact today.
