Antique Chinese Porcelain Kakiemon Dishe Amsterdam Bont Qing Nightingale, 18th C
Located in Amsterdam, Noord Holland
Unusual Dutch Decorated Kakiemon Style deep dish. The dish itself is a white porcelain plate from the Kangxi period, ca 1700-1720. The painting is Dutch Enamelling from ca 1710-1725. Visisble is a scene in what seems to be a garden of a pagode house depicting a Lady with a Man listening to a Nightingales singing, with a Bird Cage nearby. It's a well known example of the original version of a pattern which is used at the Bows and Chelsea factories in England in the 1750's where it is know as the 'Lady' and 'Old lady pattern' and which was also copied on oriental porcelain in Holland around 1720.
The piece is unmarked.

Rising a few inches above is a third light source with an identical bobeche and capital that extends from the central column.
