    This hand painted set of four stacking porcelain dishes was typically used to carry and serve small food items. Each of the dishes alternates a pattern with flowers, birds and/or ducks. The lid repeats the various designs on the dishes and is topped with a matching porcelain finial. The dishes have ridges and flanges that fit together tightly. They have cut unglazed foot rings that reveal a refined off-white clay. The bases of the four dishes are glazed. The overall glaze is a nice white which feels very thick and smooth. Piece is very heavy, weighing just under 7 pounds.
    There is a six character Reign mark on the bottom.
    Measures approximately 6½  x  6½  x  8 inches tall.
