Chinese Export Porcelain Plate Judgement of Paris Made Circa 1750
Located in Katonah, NY
A rare Chinese export porcelain plate showing the Judgment of Paris. The delicately painted figures derive from a painting by Jean Paul Rubens. Made during the Qianlong Reign, circa 1750, the plate shows the goddesses Venus, Minerva, and Juno on one side and Paris on the other side. Charged by Jupiter to pick the most beautiful of the three, Paris selects Venus and awards her the golden apple. The scene shows Rubens' version of idealized feminine beauty. The rim of the plate is decorated with a rose-red flower band. Dimensions: 9 inches diameter Condition: Excellent Price: $900 Background This dish was made exclusively for the European market based on the well-known Greek story from Homer, in which Paris, the son of the King of Troy, had to choose between several Goddesses to decide which one of them was the most beautiful.

Set Six Large Blue and White Chinese Porcelain Plates Hand-Painted Kangxi Era
Located in Katonah, NY
This set of six blue and white Chinese porcelain dishes was hand-painted 300 years ago, circa 1700, during the Kangxi dynasty. According to Sir Harry Garner, author of Oriental Blue and White, "The Kangxi blue and white reached a technical excellence that has never been surpassed." These dishes are of the rare "double dinner" size, 11" in diameter The dishes are each hand painted in a vibrant deep cobalt blue. We see a rocky outcropping with a pair of songbirds, beautiful peonies in full bloom, and a delicate flowering plum tree. The effect is gorgeous! The crisp cobalt blue border has intricate patterning with panels showing a single peony separated by scrolling vines and floral decoration. This decorative style was especially popular during the early Kangxi period.* On the underside, the dishes have the Chinese square or "Fret" mark inside a double circle in underglaze blue. A traditional Chinese scene can be beautiful and also convey symbolic meaning. Peonies symbolize female beauty, royalty, wealth, and honor in Chinese tradition and have long been adored for their bold size and beautiful colors. The plum tree flowers early in the spring, announcing the end of winter and the rebirth of nature. Hence, it symbolizes endurance and hope. Dimensions:11" in diameter x 1" tall Condition: Excellent Price: $9,600 * Blue and white shards painted with rocks and floral subjects have been excavated from Kangxi era Jingdezhen private kiln sites and early 18th-century Chinese shipwrecks...

Massive Chinese Punch Bowl Hand Painted Qianlong Period, circa 1760
Located in Katonah, NY
An altogether fabulous bowl! The hand-painted Famille Rose decoration on this bowl is exquisite and vibrant. Painted on the outside of the bowl are superb pink and white peonies and beautiful clusters of plum tree flowers painted in cheerful pale yellow and pink. The colors are heightened by the green leaves that surround them. On the inside, we see lifelike carp exquisitely painted in pink and orange swimming among stylized lotus. In Chinese tradition, fish swimming among lotus is a wish for continued success. They are so well painted that we can almost feel them move around in the bowl. They look or swim upward, symbolizing the owner's success and upward movement in society. Above the fish, the border on the rim shows clouds on turquoise ground and waterlilies with waves on iron red ground. Dimensions: 15.75" diameter x 6.75" tall. Condition: Current condition is excellent. Two 3" hairlines were impeccably invisibly restored. The bottom of the well has original slight firing imperfections visible only if one enlarges image #3. Price: $9,700 Background of Famille Rose Chinese porcelain: Famille Rose porcelain was created in early 18th century China during the reign of The Kangxi Emporer (1654–1722). It is defined by the presence of pink color overglaze enamels. We see various enamel colors on this bowl, from pale pink to deep red.
