AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A late Qing Dynasty Canton-decorated (Guangcai) export porcelain platter, featuring characteristic gilt-accented enamel work. The surface is adorned with multiple cartouches depicting figures and narrative scenes set in Chinese garden courtyards, interspersed with lush patterns of peonies, birds, and butterflies; the gilding is rich and intricate. It is paired with an antique European Rococo-style gilt-bronze tripod stand, featuring openwork floral and scrolling foliage motifs—originally commissioned for display in European aristocratic homes.
Condition: An antique piece bearing a natural patina of age. There is minor glaze loss along the rim, with natural wear to the enamel and gilding; the bronze base shows a mature patina and slight wear to the gilding, but remains structurally sound and stable.
Provenance: From a private European collection.
Notes: The photos show the actual item; it is sold "as-is." Worldwide shipping is available; the buyer is responsible for all customs duties and import fees. Please examine all photos carefully before bidding.
Dimensions: Porcelain platter diameter approx. 20.5 cm; total height including bronze stand 10 cm.
