An important Chinese porcelain plate made in Canton in the late 19th century.
This charger measures 80 centimeters in height including the base and measures 62.5 centimeters in diameter.
Apocryphal Qianlong mark on the back, in fact high quality objects from the end of the 19th century often bear this apocryphal mark in reference to the reign of the great emperor Qianlong (1735-1796), a period of reference and apogee of Chinese art in terms of creativity and quality.
Our charger is a relatively rare model, a similar example bearing a coat of arms in the center was sold on 13-12-2011 for €7,500 excluding fees at Christie's (see the last photo) and without the base.
Interesting decorations composed of a frieze of butterflies, fruits and flowers on the rim and three large cartouches decorated with palace scenes with emperor and scholars surrounded by concubines and courtesans.
Perfect condition.
Comes from the collection of Mr. Jean François Parot.
Jean-François Parot, born in 1946 and died in 2018, had a brilliant diplomatic career, during from which he was notably stationed in Saigon as Consul General from 1982 to 1986.
Passionate about oriental civilization, he built up an important collection of Chinese ceramics and sculptures from Southeast Asia where he lived, at the Château de Missillac in Loire-Atlantique.
A great scholar and connoisseur of the 18th century, he is the author of the thrilling adventures of Nicolas Le Floch, adapted for television and comics, which were a huge success both in France and abroad.
His library represented a moving testimony to the taste of this great scholar and tireless worker for classical literature and also constitutes the rich source which nourishes his novels both full of verve and great fidelity to the spirit of the 17th century.
