Antique Bow Porcelain Plate England Circa 1760
About the Item
This mid-18th-century Bow Porcelain plate features a hand-painted chinoiserie scene with a pair of black storks.
One stork wades in the water while the other flies above it.
Near the storks, foliage emerges from rockwork, all rendered in beautiful pastel colors.
The rockwork is light blue, the leaves bright turquoise, and the flowers soft pinkish-purple.
A brown painted edge accentuates the plate's hexagonal shape.
Dimensions: 7.75" height x 7.75" width
Condition: Some small kiln burn spots and two small flat edge chips restored on the underside (see last image).
Price: $400
Background of Bow Porcelain: The Bow Porcelain factory, established in East London around 1744, was one of the earliest porcelain manufactories in England.
Known for its innovation, Bow produced porcelain that combined English clay with imported materials like bone ash, creating a durable yet delicately translucent body.
The factory was heavily influenced by the popular Chinese export porcelains of the time, often incorporating chinoiserie themes, as seen in this exquisite plate.
Bow's work was renowned for its hand-painted designs and vivid use of color, qualities beautifully exemplified in this piece.
