Platter in Chinese Export Porcelain, Polychrome

About the Item

Platter, in Chinese export porcelain, polychrome and gilt decoration "Oriental figures", known as "Mandarin", Qing Dynasty, Guangxu reign (1875-1908). "Mandarin Decoration" is characterized by the combination of figurative scenes with landscapes and floral elements. In the play, it is possible to see representations of Chinese figures in traditional costumes, inserted in typical settings and figures. These scenes often tell stories or depict scenes from the daily lives of the Chinese elite, reflecting the European fascination with the exotic culture of the East. In addition to figures, the platter features an intricate floral pattern, with lush flowers, leaves and blossoms, all decorated in vibrant colors such as pink, green, red, yellow and gold. The use of glossy enamels and the meticulousness stand out, demonstrating the skill and care of Chinese craftsmen. The division of the surface into distinct decorative panels, separated by ornate moldings, is typical of the "Rose Medallion" style, a variation within the "Famille Rose" (Famille Rose) which uses a special pigment based on colloidal gold to create the characteristic pinkish tones. The name "Rose Medallion" derives from the central medallion, often decorated with floral motifs or naturalistic scenes. This piece is a testament to the ancient trade route between China and the West, representing not only Chinese craftsmanship but also the cultural and aesthetic influence that shaped European taste for oriental porcelain. For collectors and art and history enthusiasts, this serving dish is a jewel that transcends time, combining beauty, functionality and historical value. Very worn and a big hole in the edge.
