Revisit: Chinese Covered Bowls

Couple of covered rice bowls, hoping someone knows a time frame.

 

Very similar in style to the blue and white Japanese porcelain lidded rice bowls.
Sometsuke
"Sometsuke is a type of blue-and-white porcelain-ware that was produced during early 17th century in privately owned kilns in Jingdezhen a town in Jiangxi Province, China. Ko-sometsuke the prefix 'Ko' meaning 'old', is the Japanese name for Sometsuke imported from China to Japan. Though sometsuke was not made using high quality clay or glazes, the free-spirited decorations and designs made it popular in Japan. They were particularly sought after by tea-ceremony masters to be used as utensils. (source: E-Budo.com, J. Lindsey.)"

 

Thanks Couch. The lids don't seem to have a proper fit. Not sure if these are anything special.

 

I'm not being charitable and will hazard 1980s, when these were all the rage. But I am often wrong

 

Thanks Cheers

 

19th c Chinese IMO...

 

agree with @Mat Chinese. Could be 19thc, very odd pieces though, not handled anything quite like this

 

Thank you Mat and Blooey.

 

I'm with Mat and blooey.
