About the Item
A lovely large Chinese Canton enamel quatrefoil tray, Republic Period, circa 1920, China.
The copper tray of lobed quatrefoil form, and decorated in Canton enamels of turquoise, pink, white, blue, green and black.
A large central quatrefoil reserve has been delicately painted with a shanshui (mountain and water) landscape scene. Mountains loom in the background over a forrest and large body of water. In the foreground, and single figure walks across a bridge towards a mountain retreat partially obscured by trees.
A border of light turquoise enamel painted with scrolling flowers, peaches, pomegranates, and butterflies surrounds the central reserve. Peaches are a symbol of longevity, while pomegranates represent wishes for many children. Butterflies are symbols of a happy marriage.
Looking at all the symbolism, this tray was most likely a wedding gift, wishing the new couple a happy marriage and long life full blessed with many children.
The short sides of the dish are enameled a wonderful shade of pink with a simple scrolling design.
The back with a short foot and simply enameled in a robins egg blue.
