Very lovely, very old china fruit bowl with a flow blue dotted border, multi-colored fruit design at the center. It's about 11 1/2" long over the handles. This is stamped with a faint mark, and marked No. 95 on the reverse.

This has unusual and beautiful lettering for the number, we'd guess this piece is circa 1850s or 60s, possibly earlier. But aside from that, we can't tell you a lot about it as we haven't been able to track down the pattern name or the maker!

It's crazing and has browning, especially at the center. There's a tiny chip and short tight crack to the rim, barely visible.
