DESCRIPTION

Fine Chinese export porcelain armorial plate produced during the Qianlong period.
The center is decorated with the Brydges family coat of arms associated with the Dukes of Chandos, supported by two white heraldic beasts beneath a coronet and crest.
The rim features a rich cobalt blue border with gilt edging and a delicate blue and gilt chain band.
A documented service of this pattern was commissioned by James Brydges, 3rd Duke of Chandos, and his wife Mary, daughter of Richard Gamon.
An attractive example of late 18th century Chinese export armorial porcelain.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

This armorial service is recorded by David Sanctuary Howard in Chinese Armorial Porcelain and is attributed to the Qianlong period, circa 1795. Chinese export armorial porcelain was specially commissioned by European families and remains highly collectible for its combination of heraldry, history and fine porcelain craftsmanship.
