Tray - Porcelain

Polychrome enamelled porcelain footed display plate, with a “famille rose” decoration.

Oblong in shape with a flared/rolled rim, resting on a broad low foot, painted with polychrome enamels in turquoise, green, pink, yellow and red, depicting stylized flowers and foliage. The reverse and the pedestal feature a decoration of stylized waves and red lines.

The whole is characteristic of Chinese porcelain of the famille rose type on turquoise ground, produced notably at the end of the Qing period and the beginning of the Republican era.
