<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James01, post: 11433177, member: 85022&quot;]Hello Charlie.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, those are definately the iron oxide spots that you would typically see in Chinese ceramics.</p><p><br /></p><p>The red and the green paint is right at the surface and you can feel it raised if you run your finger across it. I include some close-up images of the paintwork, where you can really see the brush strokes for the red and green.[ATTACH=full]543426[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]543427[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]543428[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]543429[/ATTACH] </p><p>I wonder if perhaps there were British people that would import plain glazed Chinese teabowls and then paint on them? It perhaps seems unlikely because the UK (in places like Staffordshire) did not have any shortage of capacity to make ceramics (I think fairly cheaply), but I totally agree with everything you say about the appearance apart from the decoration appearing Chinese. Furthermore, if you put the image of the base into Artificial Intelligence then it thinks it is Chinese.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best wishes,</p><p>James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
