AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This is a large court plate from the Qianlong period (1711-1799). This exquisite yellow enamel plate from the Yongzheng period is a masterpiece of court art. The main motif is lotus flowers. This plate represents the highest level of porcelain craftsmanship during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The plate is 41 cm in diameter, with an exquisite and grand shape, fine workmanship, and complete decoration. The entire plate is decorated with intricate floral patterns. Yellow court plates symbolize good fortune and auspiciousness. The bottom is inscribed with the four characters "Made in the Qianlong Period." In ancient times, yellow was the exclusive color of the emperor; this exquisite plate is extremely precious, a unique work of art, because large plates are rarer than vases, and very few have survived intact.
