About the Item

This exquisite pair of Chinese Famille Rose porcelain plates showcases intricate hand-painted designs, featuring a rooster and garden scene surrounded by a richly decorated border. These plates exemplify the Qing Dynasty aesthetic, dating to the 19th century and measuring 10.25", with their detailed depiction of natural elements, symbolic animals, and vibrant colors. The central motif presents a serene garden setting, where pairs of roosters engage in dynamic postures, symbolizing prosperity, strength, and fidelity in Chinese culture. Accompanied by blooming peonies, twisted rock formations, and delicate butterflies, the scene is imbued with auspicious meaning, often associated with wealth, honor, and harmony in the home. Above the roosters, swallows in flight enhance the composition, reinforcing themes of joy and renewal. The border is a masterful display of Famille Rose enameling, with a lattice-style pattern interwoven with floral cartouches, auspicious fruits, and scrolling foliage. This decorative framing reflects the influence of imperial porcelain designs, blending fine brushwork with vibrant pinks, greens, yellows, and blues. The use of gold accents further elevates the richness of the design, adding an element of luxury and refinement. Famille Rose porcelain, known in Chinese as "Fencai," gained prominence during the Kangxi period (1662–1722) and flourished in the Yongzheng and Qianlong reigns of the Qing Dynasty. This technique, distinguished by opaque overglaze enamels, allowed for a soft yet luminous color palette, making it one of the most highly regarded styles in Chinese ceramic artistry. These plates, with their vibrant storytelling and meticulous craftsmanship, are a testament to the artistry of Qing Dynasty porcelain production. Whether displayed as part of a collection or as individual decorative pieces, they serve as a striking representation of traditional Chinese symbolism, fine porcelain craftsmanship, and the enduring beauty of Famille Rose artistry.

Pair of Chinese Famille Rose Plates with Garden Scenes, C. 1900
Located in Chicago, IL
During the 18th century, Europeans provided an eager market for Chinese export porcelain, especially the colorful and fanciful ware known as “famille rose.” Named for a palette of opaque overglaze enamels that favored roses and pinks, famille rose porcelain ware was crafted with the same technical virtuosity as imperial porcelain but designed for Western tastes. This pair of fine porcelain dishes is a beautiful example of famille rose, decorated with pastel enamels in a palette of purple, turquoise, and pink. The center of each plate is decorated with a calm scene of a woman and a young boy in a garden, surrounded by flowering plum branches and lingzhi fungi of immortality. The scene is bordered by an all-over purple fish...
