Description from the seller
Description
A set of three identically decorated Chinese porcelain saucers from the Qianlong period (1736–1795), made for the European export market.
Painted in underglaze cobalt blue, the front shows a refined garden composition with vases filled with flowers and antiquities arranged on stands, symbolizing elegance and cultured taste. In the background, a landscape unfolds with two small huts, adding depth and narrative to the scene.
This type of decoration is characteristic of mid-18th century export porcelain, combining Chinese symbolism with compositions highly appreciated in Europe at the time.
