China blau - a pattern copied from old Chinese porcelain - the garden of the Chinese emperor - wonderful porcelain vases placed on the balustrade of the stairs, beautiful plants. Blooming large old hibiscus bushes, bouquets of chrysanthemums. We can look into the forbidden city - during the Ming Dynasty - forbidden to mortals. The Emperor's Garden was the most guarded place in the empire. The Royal palace consists of large courtyards ending in pagodas, which are reached by stairs with balustrades... The Imperial Garden, the heart of the palace, is one of the courtyards farthest from the entrance. Only the highest dignitaries and imperial mistresses had access here.
The richest and most interesting history of the creation of the pattern at the very beginning of the century, which was subsequently produced by a huge number of German factories throughout the century.
A very beautiful specimen for the collection. It is perfectly combined with all shades of blue, blue, with a bright contrasting yellow.
It goes well with both Asian and European motifs.
