This is a Kamcheng, a type of Peranakan ceramic pot. "Kamcheng" comes from the Hokkien dialect and means a lidded pot. Originally, these were used to store food and sweets at Peranakan weddings, but they can also be used as containers for accessories and other small items. Size: 10cm (H) x 8cm (W) This is a high-quality dish with an auspicious "Phoenix and Peony" pattern. Please note: When purchasing, a local Singaporean advised me that some of these may contain lead in the paint, so it's best to avoid storing items that come into direct contact with the mouth. We kindly ask that you purchase this item with the understanding that it is intended for decorative purposes only. #Peranakan #Nyonya #Singapore #Malaysia #Malacca #AsianGoods
