At the Society of California Pioneers there is a great display of Chinese antiques from the late 19th century. These pictures don't do the exhibit justice in showing how the exhibit depicts the intersectionality of Chinese and American cultures.
As you can see, there are a variety of items in this display, including the stone rice bowl and spoons, the jar, and the vase.
I don't however, no much about the history of these items, so please chime in if you do.
