AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description
A charming Chinese porcelain saucer from the early Kangxi period (late 17th century, before 1700). Decorated in underglaze cobalt blue and lightly molded and contoured, the front displays a refined floral composition accompanied by two small birds in the foreground.
The reverse is also attractively decorated, featuring additional birds and a symbol mark. Such attention to the reverse decoration is characteristic of quality Kangxi porcelain from this early phase. The balanced composition and lively brushwork reflect the elegance and freshness typical of late 17th-century blue and white wares.
Age
Early Kangxi period, Qing dynasty (late 17th century, before 1700)

Diameter: 13.3 cm

In very good condition. Light rim fritting consistent with the period. There is one extremely small and barely visible hairline (approximately 0.2 cm, if it can even be considered a hairline), very difficult to detect. No restorations. Please refer to the photographs for details.
