Description from the seller

Pair of Chinese Mandarin Porcelain Plates – 19th Century

A decorative pair of Chinese Mandarin porcelain plates, dating from the 19th century.

Both plates are richly hand-painted in the characteristic Mandarin palette, with vibrant famille rose enamels in shades of pink, green, orange, blue and gilt details.

The decoration is arranged in alternating reserves depicting Chinese court and domestic scenes with figures, together with finely painted panels of flowers, foliage, birds and butterflies. The surrounding ground is densely ornamented with scrolling motifs, creating the elaborate and colourful appearance characteristic of Chinese export porcelain of the period.

The two plates form a particularly attractive pair, with closely related decoration while retaining small individual variations resulting from their hand-painted execution.

The reverse sides are undecorated and show no visible reign or maker's marks.

Both pieces present well, with signs of age and use consistent with 19th-century porcelain. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the condition description.
