Porcelain Famille Rose Antique Chinese Floral Footed Plates

I am selling a Set of 2 Vintage Chinese Porcelain Hand Crafted and Hand Painted Famille Rose Floral Footed Plates in excellent, antique condition. No cracks or chips. There are tiny pits and dark specks in the glaze and a couple of glaze irregularities, done during the making. We are delighted to present this exquisite set of two vintage Chinese porcelain footed plates, a beautiful representation of the Famille Rose enamel style. These plates are in excellent antique condition with no chips or cracks, showcasing the delicate artistry of hand-painted porcelain from a bygone era. Condition & Provenance: * The plates are in excellent condition for their age. There are no chips or cracks, and the hand-painted enamels remain vibrant. The minor "glaze irregularities" noted are a natural part of the crafting process and do not detract from the beauty of these unique pieces. Exquisite Craftsmanship & Symbolism: * Each plate is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, featuring a vibrant and intricate design. The delicate overglaze enamels, a hallmark of the Famille Rose technique, bring the floral motifs to life. The plates are adorned with a variety of symbolic flowers and fruits: * Cherry Blossoms & Plum Blossoms: These flowers are not only beautiful but also symbolize resilience, purity, and renewal in Chinese culture. * Longevity Peaches: A powerful symbol of immortality and good fortune. * Vibrant Floral Array: An assortment of other lively flowers creates a stunning visual display. The plates have an elegant, scalloped edge and sit on a delicate footed base, a classic design element that adds to their sophistication. The hand-crafted nature of these pieces is evident in the subtle, charming imperfections, such as tiny pits and dark specks in the glaze, which are common in antique porcelain and a testament to their authentic, handmade origin. Dimensions: * Width: 6-7/8" * Length: 4-3/4" * Height: 1-1/4" This set is a perfect addition for any collector of Chinese antiques, Famille Rose porcelain, or anyone seeking to add a touch of timeless elegance and cultural history to their home. These plates are not just decorative items; they are a window into the rich artistic traditions of China. Comes from a pet and smoke-free environment. Pickup in Mount Pleasant (NW Calgary)
