DESCRIPTION

An 18th century Chinese export porcelain saucer dating to the Qing Dynasty, Qianlong period. The interior is freely decorated in famille rose enamels with scattered floral sprays, including prominent pink blossoms, turquoise leaves and smaller flowers in iron red, green, blue and purple. The asymmetrical arrangement gives the piece a lively decorative character typical of Chinese export porcelain of the period. The saucer has a gently rounded profile and raised circular foot, with the underside left undecorated.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Famille rose enamels became an important feature of Chinese export porcelain during the Qianlong period, allowing painters to create delicate floral compositions in a broad palette of opaque colors. Small saucers of this type were commonly produced as components of tea services for the export market.
