The pottery is hand-painted in a traditional blue and white chinoiserie scene featuring a pagoda, lake and willow tree. This charger is a decorative element as it has a hairline crack to the center of the the dish. The charger shows its age with fritting and smaller chips to its rim. Blue & white pottery and porcelain of any type is highly decorative and never goes out of style.
