Description from the seller
Set of 5 Chinese Porcelain Plates – Blue & White with Rice Grain Decoration
Attractive set of five Chinese porcelain plates decorated in traditional blue and white, enriched with iron red details and the characteristic “rice grain” (bago de arroz) decoration.
Each plate features a central dragon motif in underglaze blue, symbolising strength and prosperity in Chinese culture. The cavetto is surrounded by delicate openwork-style translucent “rice grain” motifs incorporated into the porcelain body, allowing light to subtly pass through — a refined and highly decorative technique typical of Chinese export ware.
The rim is further enhanced with geometric blue borders and iron red ornamental accents, creating a harmonious and elegant composition.
The reverse bears a “Made in China” mark, indicating 20th century production for export.
Origin: China
Period: 20th century
Decoration: Blue & white with rice grain (bago de arroz) and iron red accents
Quantity: 5 plates
Dimension: 12x2.0cm
Condition:
In good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age and use. Minor firing imperfections may be present, typical of this type of production. Please carefully examine the photographs for full details.
