A wonderful glaze typical of Chinese "Shiwan" pottery adorns this early 20th Century Chinese planter. These planters also features a predominantly turquoise pigment and a wonderful faded texture. Shiwan ware is a style of Chinese pottery from the Shiwanzhen district near Guangdong. In the modern-day, this would make for a beautiful decorative bowl or as a planter for one's home garden. The marks and stains to the planter which have developed over the past century contribute to its charm.
