DESCRIPTION

Chinese porcelain plate decorated in famille rose enamels with an iron-red Buddhist lion finely highlighted in gilt, beside blue rockwork, flowering peonies and auspicious objects. The elaborate border features paired chilong beasts forming cartouches enclosing Buddhist symbols, alternating with floral sprays and foliage against an iron-red scroll ground. Pink and blue bands outline the shaped reserves, while a narrow gilt line finishes the rim. The reverse is plain with an unmarked glazed base.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

The combination of Buddhist imagery, auspicious objects and elaborate chilong cartouches gives this pattern particular decorative interest. Surviving metal staples document a traditional method of repairing valued porcelain.
