<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KikoBlueEyes, post: 498333, member: 8363&quot;]I was trying not to buy any more things this month, but I was immediately attracted to these and the price was right.&nbsp; What I observed about them is that the figures are not hand painted and you can see the edges of the transfers (I hope that is the right word), but someone overlaid them with thick paint in places creating a sort of three dimensional effect.&nbsp; The plaques are 5 inches by 7 inches. The frames are well made. My questions are as follows:</p><ol> <li>Are they modern or vintage?&nbsp; Or is that an impossible question?</li> <li>Bronwen has answered this.&nbsp; They are the four beauties of Ancient China with a seasonal format.</li> <li>Are they ceramic or porcelain?</li> <li>What is this technique of painting over transfers called, so I can do research on my own?</li> </ol><p>Whatever you can tell me is fine, but I hope I can get the seeds so I can use them to learn a little bit about this kind of thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]164198[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164199[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164201[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164202[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
