Description from the seller

Large Chinese porcelain Plate – Kangxi Era (1662-1722)
"Imari Chinois" Decor with Peonies and Scholar's Rock
Immerse yourself in the refinement of the Kangxi period with this grand display plate. A true testament to the golden age of export porcelain, it features a lush floral design of great elegance.

The Decor: A masterful composition centered on a cobalt blue Taihu scholar's rock, from which rise branches of peonies (symbol of nobility and fortune) with generous petals.

The Palette: A striking contrast between cobalt blue underglaze, intense iron red, and gold highlights still very present. A freshness of tones characteristic of the Jingdezhen kilns.

The Look: An imposing diameter that offers a strong visual presence, ideal for a collection of "blue, white and red".

State Sheet & Details
Origin: China, Qing Dynasty, Kangxi reign.

Condition: Despite a star crack at the center and a chipped edge, the plate retains remarkable decorative integrity. These signs of use attest to its age without diminishing the finesse of the tracé.

Highlights: Large size, quality execution of the flowers and the vibrancy of the original colors.

Note to collectors: An authentic piece from the 18th century that perfectly embodies the meeting between Chinese aesthetics and European taste of the era.
