Antique Chinese Zhangzhou Swatow Slip Decoration Charger Ming Dynasty

About the Item

Unusual Majestic and Large Chinese Ming period Swatow Charger. It's quite difficult to catch the true color of this one in the studio, the photos outside with phone are therefore the best for the color. Porcelain dish with 'Swatow-type' blue glaze and white slip decoration. This heavily potted dish has rounded sides, a broad flat upturned rim and a tapering foot. It is decorated inside and out first with a white, then with a grey-blue glaze. Slip-painted stylized chrysanthemums fill the centre, small chrysanthemums comprised of tiny dots together with lotus sprays ornament the well, and the rim shows a border of chrysanthemum flowers. The exterior is plain. The foot ring is very gritty.
