The central medallion depicts elegant birds and waterfowl among flowering plants, rendered in delicate polychrome typical of the Qianlong period.

This example shows historic repair with visible staples to the rim and a fitted metal rim, reflecting traditional restoration methods used to preserve valued ceramics.

Collector’s Notes: Famille Rose wares from the Qianlong reign are highly prized for their refined enamel palette and detailed decoration. Bird imagery symbolizes harmony and happiness, while export pieces with aqua ground and gilt borders were especially popular in Europe.
