New Members HayleyAllan Posted April 25, 2017 at 09:41 PM New Members Report Posted April 25, 2017 at 09:41 PM I have to create a box for a random object, and I chose a lovely pair of what appears to be Chinese soup or rice bowls with spoons. However, I have been unable to find a translation for the 4 pieces of text around the edge of the bowls! They are only cheap plastic bowls, and I could be wrong about the text being Chinese, but I was wondering if someone could help me out? I have attached photos of the 4 pieces I would really like to get translated in to English, in order to help create a traditional piece of packaging. Thanks in advance! Quote

Shelley Posted April 26, 2017 at 10:18 AM Report Posted April 26, 2017 at 10:18 AM Does this style have a name? I have lots of pieces of this style in pink, green, yellow and I know there is also blue but I don't have any blue and wanted to do a search but didn't know what to call it. Sets of china usually have a name for the design, such as the pale blue sets with translucent rice sized dots which is called the Rice pattern for obvious reasons. Quote
