AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
UV checked
Large circular platter
Qing Dynasty, Qianlong period (1736-1795)
18th century
China
Porcelain with polychrome enamels decoration of the Rose Family on glaze
Diameter: 38.5 cm x Height: 4 cm
This large porcelain platter features a refined central motif that sits within the pure tradition of Chinese floral and animal designs highly valued for export to Europe in the 18th century.
Central design: The basin is adorned with an asymmetric composition depicting a bird with azure blue and pink plumage, perched on a gnarled, winding branch. At the base of the tree bloom rich peonies, a symbol of wealth, honor, and distinction in China, treated in shades of purplish pink (Famille Rose) and an iron orange highlighted with fine golden tendrils. A white daisy and a small butterfly in mid-flight complete this bucolic garden scene.
The rim and the lip: The lip of the platter bears a decoration of four sprays of stylized flowers and foliage that follow the curvature of the piece. The upper edge of the rim (the border trim) is accented by a red iron-and-gold geometric frieze, characteristic of productions intended for the Western market.
Condition
Some wear from use and light nicks along the rim testify to the piece’s age, without affecting the freshness of the enamel palette. 1 crack.
Provenance: Kanaka The Collection, Portugal
