A decorative and collectible example of early 20th century Chinese export porcelain.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Mandarin palette porcelain became highly popular during the late Qing and Republic periods for export and domestic use. These richly decorated wares often combined narrative court scenes with floral and bird motifs inspired by earlier Canton enamel traditions. Smaller bowls of this type remain desirable among collectors of Chinese decorative arts.
