Chinese Export Porcelain Large Bowl Famille Rose Hand Painted Circa 1770

Background of Famille Rose Porcelain

Famille Rose is defined visually by the presence of pink color overglaze enamels.
Famille-rose porcelain was first made at the famous Imperial kilns of Jingdezhen.
The pieces were fired, painted, and given a final glaze of quartz sand and sometimes fern ash before a second firing.
The potters of Jingdezhen used this unique glaze to enhance the brightness of the colors.
The technique was introduced to China from Europe during the reign of the Qing Dynasty Emperor Yongzheng, who ruled from 1723 to 1735.
