This pair of Chinese dishes is distinguished by the meticulous work that hosts each of its pavilions. Three of them are embellished with floral motifs, while three others present caravans parked next to a lake. The central, circular pavilion repeats the floral motifs. The symmetry of the pieces denotes the Chinese taste for balance.
