Late 1800's Imperial Crown Austria porcelain (See mark on back), it is a 21 inch long platter, hand painted, gilded, rimmed in rich rose pink, with an intricate row of transferred flowers, then a central hand-painted scene: A beautifully captured pike swims among water weeds, a white lily, and inspects an oyster shell. THIS is fine antique Austrian china!
An impressive display piece to show off mounted on a wall or in a large display cabinet, it's sure to get noticed by guests! Maybe for a fancy hotel lobby, or a hunting or fishing lodge.

There is a slight manufacturing fold on the back foot edge rim - it is NOT a crack, nor has it been repaired. Only slight wear form being well over 100 years old, such as some lightly rubbed gilding, which is inevitable with these objects - however this one is WAY better than most, unusually so!
