Bayeux Figural Spice Dish

This is a merchant with his seven spice pots made by Bayeux during the Langlois period around 1830. Not sure what it is for but likely for spices or such. It is a rare piece modeled as a chinaman surrounded by six small pots and one pot in his hand all decorated in the chinoiserie style with figures, flowers, designs and even writing. Each pot has a different design to it and a nice gold trim to the top. The asian merchant is wearing a very detailed robe and a nice hast with a hole on top likely for a liquid or to hold incense!? All on a nice base painted like roks with grass on top. A superb piece that looks amazing on display! The piece is in superb condition with some wear to the gold trim on the pots and the one he is holding in his hands has a hairline that you can only see whn you search for it! The dish is not marked but that is normal! It is 6.25 inches tall, 7.375 inches wide and 4.875 inches deep. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $1499
