The "Tureen with Cover, c. 1787/90" is an exquisite creation that bears the monogram of Elias Morgan along with his coat of arms, adding a touch of personalization to its already stunning design. Made in Qianlong, China specifically for the American market, this tureen represents the cross-cultural exchange between two nations during this period. The vibrant colors and intricate decorative patterns on this porcelain masterpiece are truly mesmerizing.
