A Chinese Porcelain Saucer, Qing Dynasty for Export
About the Item
Chinese porcelain for export. Qing Dynasty, Daoguang period (1820-1850).
This saucer represents a refined example of export porcelain destined for the European market. The decorative style follows the famille rose tradition, characterized by the use of polychrome enamels, applied manually on the white porcelain background.
The decoration of the piece features a symmetrical and harmonious design, composed of a central medallion with a peach, a symbol of longevity and immortality in Chinese culture. The peach is surrounded by green leaves and small pink flowers, forming a delicate and auspicious motif. Around it, flowering branches and stylized leaves are gently distributed across the surface of the saucer, creating a fluid and naturalistic visual effect.
Predominant colors include emerald green, pink, orange and yellow, which contrast with the translucent white porcelain base. The soft tones and transparency of the enamels reflect the refined technique of Chinese craftsmen, who mastered detailed painting on porcelain with great precision and lightness. The lotus and other flowers depicted symbolize purity and prosperity, while the delicately intertwined branches evoke the harmony between nature and art.
The edge of the saucer is highlighted with a thin reddish-orange outline, an elegant detail that frames the composition and adds a touch of sophistication to the design. This element reinforces the influence of Western standards on Chinese export porcelain, adapting traditional Chinese aesthetics to European tastes.
Pieces like this were highly valued in the 19th century, being acquired by Western merchants to compose luxurious tea and dinner services, serving as a testament to the artistic and commercial exchange between China and the West.
Worn enamel.
