Chinese, 18th century, under glaze blue bands flanking the Dutch decorated panels of European figures, landscapes with flowers, 2-3/4 in., star crack to underside with discoloration; four under glaze blue floral panels, later Dutch decorated buildings, figures and flowers, 3 in., hairline with loss across bowl, chips to foot rim, firing flaws; one Nanking cargo bowl, with decorated blue bands and central flower on interior, label reads "Christies", 2-5/8 in., surface discoloration from water, loss, cracks

Notes: Please note that the first two bowls represented in this lot were originally decorated in China, with underglaze blue.  After being imported into Holland, they were later embellished with the orange and gilt decoration. The Nanking bowl in this lot, is a bowl of the same design, with the same cobalt blue underglaze, without the later addition of the European embellishment.
