Chinese Porcelain plate decorated in Famille Rose enamels on a pale aqua ground. The central medallion depicts a lively bird scene with ducks and exotic birds among flowering plants in a waterside setting. The cavetto and rim are embellished with floral sprays and delicate gilt chain borders, typical of Qianlong export porcelain.
The refined color palette and balanced composition reflect the elegance of the Qing Dynasty decorative tradition.
