Colorful, elaborate, hand-painted, hand-potted export plate. The exquisite painting on this plate sets it apart from most rose medallion.The heavily potted Chinese large porcelain famille rose export plate with a shallow cut unglazed foot. The plate is decorated with birds, butterflies, fruit and flowers colorfully- and expertly-painted in rose, green, yellow, blue and gold over glaze enamels. Each of the four medallion separated by heavily decorated and gilded floral borders. Black has been used to outline and accent. The rim edge is decorated with flowers and a key fret pattern. The pretty central medallion is encircled by gold. The painting is very well done. The enamels are raised and can be felt running your fingers across the plate.The base is glazed with sand showing in the glaze on the base edge. There is a sager mark in the center. You can see the pottera€?s wheel rings under the glaze. The glaze is thick, feels very smooth to the touch, and looks shiny.There are no porcelain marks or labels.MEASUREMENTS 10a€ diameter x ??a€ tall.
