Antique Chinese Kosometsuke Tianqi Plate Porcelain Man Riding Crab, 17th Cen
About the Item
A very nicely decorated plate. Late Ming.
Crabs symbolize prosperity, business advancement and social status. The Chinese word for crab and the Chinese word for harmony are both pronounced xie. Depicting the crab is therefore expressing a wish for harmony. Also, the Chinese word for the shell (jia) of the crab has the additional meaning of "first" and , therefore, expresses the wish to attain the highest score in the imperial examinations to become a government official. With thanks to Ben Tan.
