Pair of Famille Rose Chinese porcelain dishes with floral motifs. This is a Chinese porcelain plate featuring a finely hand-painted floral motif. The central motif features a traditional arrangement of peonies and chrysanthemums, which symbolise prosperity and longevity in Chinese culture. The border is decorated with repeated floral and geometric motifs, probably inspired by famille rose porcelain, a style that came to the fore during the Qing dynasty. The warm colour palette, including pinks, reds, blues and golds, and the intricate brushwork suggest a high level of craftsmanship. Yongzheng period, 18th century. D: 22.5-23 cm. One dish with tiny chips, one dish with a hairline and chips.
