Antique Chinese Export Porcelain Dish Hand-Painted Qianlong Era Circa 1760

$360.00

This exquisite Chinese export porcelain powder-blue dish was hand-painted in the 18th century during the Qianlong Era, circa 1760.
The center is painted in famille verte enamels.
It features a fierce **Kylin in a traditional fenced garden with a flowering plum tree.
Around the center are four fan-shaped panels showing birds and insects among flowers.
The panels are reserved against a powder-blue ground that is gilt-decorated with floral blooms in outline.
The famille verte reserves create a visual focus against the powder blue.
This method of decoration adds depth and variety to this wonderful porcelain dish.

Dimensions: 8.35″ diameter

Condition: Very Good. There is light wear to the gilding on the powder blue. A half-inch flat flake has been invisibly restored on the back of the dish.

**Kylin:
In traditional Chinese culture, the Kylin (also spelled Qilin) symbolizes good fortune, prosperity, success, and longevity.
The Kylin is considered a benevolent and auspicious creature that brings blessings and wards off evil.
Its appearance in one’s garden is a good omen. Its presence is a harbinger of peace and good times.
It is also associated with the Confucian virtues of righteousness and kindness. As such, the Kylin is often depicted in Chinese art and literature as a protector and bringer of good luck.
