[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 419454, member: 2844"]Nice transferware, ascot, cute scene. I'm with Bronwen, cymbals and a drum. Since these are Scottish made, and the design is probably based on a popular 19th century British etching, I don't think there is any Chinese significance. It looks like the original artist couldn't even decide if they were Chinese or Persian.;) My vote is for Sino-Persian traders in Shanghai having a very good time.:playful:[/QUOTE]
