A hard-to-find large 20th-century Burmese lacquerware serving bowl with traditional Buddhist symbols hand-painted on the surface.

The bowl is in excellent condition, with effectively no usage wear for its age. It shows pride of ownership from the previous owner. This piece was recently discovered in the legendary interior designer Lucia Lawrence's private collection and it has been stored in a climate-controlled environment continuously, wrapped in shipping paper. It is clear to us that this bowl was created with decorative purpose in mind, which is rare for the period and the region.
