This is a porcelain soup tureen in excellent shape. It is white with images of yellow flowers (looks like a wild flower or dandelion ...) and small star shaped white flowers. There is gold trimming on the lid handle, outer rim of lid, on outer edges of bowl handle and on handle of the spoon. There is no wear of the edging that I can see.

There is a small defect on the lid (rough wavy spot but completely covered with the glaze) and tiny chips on inner rim of bowl. The spoon has a little wearing away of the finish where the handle touches the bowl.
