Fine Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose Fencai 2 Boys Carrying Peach Plate ROC 20c

About the Item

This Chinese porcelain plate, dating from the early 20th century Republic period, is a remarkable representation of both artistic skill and cultural symbolism. The plate features a meticulously executed scene of two boys in traditional Chinese attire, carrying a large peach between them. In Chinese folklore, the peach is a potent symbol of longevity and immortality, making this plate a rich tapestry of cultural narratives. Marked with a four-character apocryphal "Yang He Tang Zhi" seal mark in enamel blue to the center of the base, the plate pays homage to the artistic traditions of earlier periods of imperial workshops. The mark, although apocryphal, adds an additional layer of historical and cultural context, enhancing the plate's collectible value. The craftsmanship is of a high caliber, with intricate detailing on the boys' clothing and the peach, set against a well-balanced composition. The vibrant colors and fine brushwork are indicative of the skilled artisans of the Republic period, who were known for their ability to present traditional themes using well mastered techniques. This plate is not merely a decorative object; it is a piece of cultural history. Its blend of aesthetic excellence and symbolic depth makes it a compelling acquisition for collectors who appreciate the nuanced history of Chinese art. circa: early 20th Century, R.O.C.

  • Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose Fencai Peach Sage Ewer Fu Jian Hui Guan Mark 20c
    Located in Richmond, CA
    Step into a vivid chapter of Chinese history with this exquisite Chinese vintage porcelain polychrome ewer, a piece that embodies the rich cultural and artistic tapestry of the late Qing to early Republic period. The ewer presents itself as a large, vibrant peach, a symbol of longevity and immortality in Chinese culture, offering a visual treat with its intricate detailing and vibrant hues. Beside the peach sits a bearded sage in robes, a figure that brings a touch of wisdom and reverence to the piece. The sage, depicted in a contemplative pose, adds a layer of narrative depth to the ewer, inviting viewers to delve into the stories and philosophies of ancient China. The ewer's handle and spout, crafted to resemble branches, blend seamlessly with the overall design, adding a touch of natural elegance to the piece. A significant highlight of this ewer is the apocryphal "Fu Jian Hui Guan" seal mark found on its flat bottom, a mark that evokes a rich history. The original Fu Jian Hui Guan, also known as the Tianhou Xinggong, is a closed classical temple built in 1884 and completed in 1906, serving as a place of worship for the sea goddess Mazu, showcasing the typical Minnan style. This establishment, popular among overseas Chinese communities, particularly in Southeast Asia, became a hub for the creation of porcelain sculptures, often depicting deities, under the influence of renowned artists like You Zechang. These creations, distinct in style and highly revered, found a cherished place in the hearts of overseas Chinese communities, marking a significant chapter in the history of Chinese porcelain artistry.
