Pair of brass-mounted Chinese porcelain dishes, 'hundred butterflies' and floral, late 20th century

Pair of small Chinese porcelain dishes encased in brass mounts in the Hong Kong ACF style, one hand-enamelled with colourful butterflies on a cream ground in perfect conditions, the other with burnt orange floral decoration with defect. The butterfly dish is sound; the floral dish has rim cracks and a repaired chip. Backstamped MADE IN CHINA FOR DECORATIVE USE ONLY, so these are late 20th-century decorative export pieces, not antiques. Approx. 15 cm diameter each, sold with a display stand.
