The bowl has a globular body with a projecting rim and stands on three paw feet; on one side it has a loop handle. The circular, slightly domed cover has a button finial. The circular stand has curved sides and stands on a footring. The front of the bowl is decorated with a frame of scrollwork in gold with small areas of lustre and painting in iron-red and brown enamels, enclosing a Chinoiserie scene: a Chinese shop-keeper displaying his wares to a customer whose cloak is held by a little boy. On the ground is a ledger, inscribed 'Meis\/1726 . . .'. Overhead there are flying insects and a dragon. On each side of the handle, and down its back, there are 'Indian' flowers, and on its sides, iron-red scrolls. The rim the claws on the paw feet, and the top and bottom of the handle are gilded. The cover has two Chinoiserie subjects forming a continuous scene: a seated woman playing with a baby; and a woman feeding a baby while four others play about her, and a man stgands holding  a basket full of monkeys. There are gold bands round the rim and finial, the top of which is also gold. The stand has a larger panel similarly framed, and painted with a Chinoiserie scene of a man seated at a table approached by a woman bird-seller and a pedlar; birds and insects fly overhead. The rim is encircled by elaborate gold scrollwork. On the back there are three iron-red concentric circles."}],"identifier":[{"accession_number":"C.2 & A & B-1972","primary":true,"type":"accession number","value":"C.2 & A & B-1972"},{"priref":"140159","type":"priref","value":"140159"},{"type":"uri","uri":"https:\/\/data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk\/id\/object\/140159","value":"https:\/\/data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk\/id\/object\/140159"}],"inscription":[{"location":"on base of each piece","method":"painted in gold","transcription":[{"value":"14"}],"type":"gold number"}],"institutions":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"agent-149638","uid":"adlib-agent-149638","uuid":"7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8"},"summary_title":"The Fitzwilliam Museum"}],"legal":{"credit_line":"Given by Sir Richard Jessel"},"lifecycle":{"acquisition":[{"agents":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"agent-166401","uid":"adlib-agent-166401","uuid":"bb0154be-07cd-3851-9742-e8f8c9c054e7"},"summary_title":"Jessel, Richard, Sir"}],"date":[{"earliest":1972,"latest":1972,"value":"1972-01-20"}],"method":{"value":"given"}}],"creation":[{"date":[{"earliest":1726,"era":["CE"],"latest":1726,"precision":"dated","value":"1726"}],"maker":[{"@link":{"role":[{"value":"factory"}],"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"agent-163301","uid":"adlib-agent-163301","uuid":"e48ba156-d9ec-3938-a33c-5360794eb376"},"summary_title":"Meissen Porcelain Factory"}],"note":[{"value":"This type of Chinoiserie decoration is often referred to as H\u00f6roldtmalerei after the director of the painting workshop, J.G.
