AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Qing Dynasty, Kangxi Period (1662–1722)
Blue-and-White “Intertwining Floral Scroll” Dish
Dimensions: Diameter approx. 21.5 cm.
Condition: Glaze popping around the rim, several small chips, and hairline cracks.
This blue-and-white porcelain dish dates to the Kangxi period of the Qing dynasty (1662–1722). The cobalt decoration is calm and restrained, showing a deep blue with a subtle grey tone and clear layering—hallmarks of Kangxi blue-and-white wares. The floral medallion at the center is open and naturally composed, while the surrounding band of intertwining floral scrolls flows continuously. The lines are fluid and controlled, conveying both structure and a sense of ease.
The porcelain body is dense and well potted, with a neatly finished foot. The base glaze is smooth with a faint bluish hue, and small iron-rust specks are visible beneath the glaze. These signs of age enhance the overall presence of the piece rather than detract from it.
Quiet and unpretentious, yet confident in its craftsmanship, the dish reflects the enduring appeal of Kangxi blue-and-white porcelain.
