Antique Chinoiserie Blue Staffordshire Porcelain Box
About the Item
A charming mottled-blue glazed Crown Staffordshire porcelain box in the chinoiserie style
England, circa 1900–1920.
Why we like it
The deep, mottled ‘powder blue’ colour of this charming box, decorated with exotic Oriental designs in gold, is reminiscent of the Chinese porcelain of the Kangxi reign (1662–1722).
Favoured at the Qing court (1644–1911) on account of their Ming imperial connotations, glazes in cobalt blue were also a popular item of export.
Such luxurious items were popular in England during the height of fashion for oriental exoticism, called chinoiserie in Europe.

History Such luxurious items were popular in England during the height of fashion for oriental exoticism, called chinoiserie in Europe. The young Prince of Wales (future King George IV) was often described as having a wildly extravagant taste in decorating his palaces. As early as 1801, the Prince had been completely taken by Oriental tastes and began to expand his existing Brighton retreat. Having been presented a gift of Chinese wallpaper, he ordered a Chinese Gallery to display the new paper. The 162-foot long room was contrived of painted glass decorated with flowers, insects, fruit and birds. The Prince's desire for additional structures in the Oriental manner resulted in commissioning the fashionable architect John Nash and the designer Frederick Crace...Category
