Provenance

From the private collection of a Swedish family in Närke. The couple has a keen interest in art and antiques and started to collect in the 1960’s, attending auctions, antique shops, and antique fairs. Always seeking additional pieces that would adorn their home and that intrigued them with its quality and history.

Literature

Lotus is the symbol of honesty, goodness, beauty, purity and strength in the eyes of the Chinese people.
