18th Century Chinese Shipwreck Porcelain Dish
Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
A Chinese export porcelain shipwreck soup dish from the Hatcher Porcelain Cargoes, made in the early to mid-18th century.
This Chinese porcelain soup dish was created specifically for export to the European market. It was used for soup or broth courses, which had become a dinner staple in Northern Europe following the influence of French table customs. This piece features an underglaze blue floral decoration, here comprising chrysanthemums, peonies, and a pomegranate. The floral sprigs appear to grow from a rock formation, partly obscured by the marine incrustations. On the border of the dish, three arrangements of lotuses balance the composition. The swiftness of the painter’s hand is evident in the strokes forming leaves and petals, as well as in the bleeding of some of the lighter cobalt washes coloring the flowers.
Dimensions: 9 in. Dm x 1 1/4 in. H (22.9 cm Dm x 3.2 cm H)
Condition: Salvaged condition. A few hairlines extending from the rim to the center, the longest about 6cm. We do not recommend cleaning or restoration, as the current condition speaks to an important stage in this object’s life.

Chinoiserie Porcelain Gilt Hunt Bowl Signed circa 1770 Famille Rose and Blue
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
Famille rose antique hunt bowl painted in Famille-rose overglaze enamels. Made in the Qianlong period, circa 1770.
Bowl depicts a hunting scene typical of Chinese Export pottery. On the outer sides of the bowl, are scenes of hunting dogs with black and white spots preparing for a hunt. In the background are trees in green, pink and brown. As well as brown barns or hunting lodges and mountains. Throughout the outside, as well as inside, are gold swirls on a blue background.
Inside, is a painted scene of a man and woman on horseback riding during the hunt. The woman wears a pink overcoat, hat and horsewhip. The man, on a gray horse, is riding in a brown overcoat and red hat with Horn and a whip. In the background is a church, mountain and floral bushes in green, red and pink. This scene is on the bottom of the bowl and surrounded by a gold swirl medallion.
The base of the bowl is decorated in a gold leaf print which seems to be ferns or some other type of flora.
The shape is traditional: raised on a short foot with steep sides. The top rim is in a scallop shape. Made in the Qianlong period, circa 1770.
