ABOUT PRODUCTID 6030
This decorative porcelain plate from the Qianlong period (1735–1796), created in China under the Qing dynasty, exemplifies eighteenth-century craftsmanship marked by harmonious form and ornamentation. The plate features the classic blue-and-white palette: a cool, slightly muted white background is contrasted by hand-painted cobalt motifs. The central field displays a detailed floral composition—likely peonies—accompanied by smaller flowers and a butterfly, all rendered with fine, delicate brushwork. The rim is adorned with alternating floral sprays and a geometric lattice border, imparting rhythm to the design. The glossy glaze accentuates the smoothness of the surface, while subtle, irregular lines reveal its handmade origins. Minor chips and tiny defects are visible along the edge, together with faint signs of age such as glaze wear and slight discoloration. There are no signs of restoration; overall, the plate is in good condition, typical for genuine porcelains from this era. This plate carries the voice of eighteenth-century imperial China—a time when porcelain was not only a prized export but also a bearer of refined taste and symbolism. The hand-painted peonies and butterfly evoke wishes for beauty and prosperity, while serving as a testament to the technical mastery of period artisans. Through the glossy surface and rhythmic ornamentation, a sense of tranquil elegance emerges, echoing the fascination these objects held for European courts and collectors worldwide. The plate can be displayed in a cabinet or on a console in the living room, where natural light will highlight the cobalt tones and depth of the glaze. It may be paired with other porcelains in white, blue, or
