AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
UV checked! Very good condition!
Covered teapot in enameled porcelain with a decoration of the "Hundred Children"
China, Qing Dynasty, Guangxu (1875–1908)
Height: 9 cm
Width: 9 cm and 13 cm
Porcelain with an enamelled decoration over glaze, so-called famille rose (fencai).
Cylindrical low body resting on a slight circular foot, equipped with a short pouring spout and a rectangular handle. Domed lid pierced by a vent, topped with a knob modeled in the shape of a stylized peach.
The teapot bears the classic and very popular theme of the "Hundred Children" (Baizi Tu).
The decoration, treated in a soft palette of celadon greens, pinks, lilacs and oranges, represents a continuous frieze of children (play scenes and processions) in a stylized landscape with vegetation, banners and ritual accessories. The treatment is light and narrative, with fine brown-black outlines.
The base bears a red iron seal mark of four characters.
Condition:
Very good overall condition.
No cracks and no restorations! Examined under UV.
The small hole visible on the lid is an intentional steam vent and not a firing defect.
Provenance: Portuguese Collection - Kanaka The Collection
Shipping: Shipped with UPS with insurance and tracking
