Description from the seller
Antique Chinese blue-and-white porcelain prunus plate (23 cm) – Kangxi period (1662-1722)
A beautiful and authentic Chinese blue-and-white porcelain plate from the Kangxi period (1662–1722).
The plate is hand-painted with the beloved and classic 'cracked ice and prunus' decoration (plum blossoms on a cracked-ice background), symbolizing the arrival of spring. Both the central medallion and the wide rim are finely decorated with blossoming branches. The edge of the plate has a fine brown hue with very slight color fading in a few spots, the back is equipped with stylized branches on the outer rim and shows the characteristic, finely finished Kangxi foot rim.
Specifications:
* Country of origin: China
* Period: Qing Dynasty, Kangxi period (1662-1722)
* Material: Porcelain (blue-and-white underglaze)
* Decoration: Prunus / Plum blossoms (Cracked ice and prunus)
* Diameter: 23 cm
Condition:
The plate is in good antique condition, appropriate for the respectable age of well over 300 years. The porcelain has a beautiful glaze. There is one small chip of 2 mm on the rim (see detail photo). No hairlines, restorations, or other major defects beyond that.
