Chinese Canton Famille Verte Plate With Scalloped Edge And 4 Flower And Life Scene Cartouches18

Richly decorated with a central motif of a pink lotus flower in a golden circle surrounded by four butterflies with outstretched wings, and four beautiful cartouches with a flower and bird scene and a scene from the life of Dignitary Ladies outside their Palace in conversation under the curious eye of a woman at her window with a hanging curtain, all well decorated with friezes and decorative ornaments. What makes this Chinese curiosity piece so rare is its period, its rich decoration with beautiful polychromy and its fine details, plus the eventful turn with a fine edge circled in gold. A beautiful, highly decorative collector's piece in perfect, untouched condition, for this "Curiosity" from Asia, reflecting the grandeur of the Chinese Empire. A connoisseur's piece...
