An Outstanding Chinese Pictorial
Plate. c.1750 |

A
truly outstanding Chinese export porcelain octagonal plate.
Decorated in the 'Mandarin Palette' with a scene that
probably depicts the Emperor Qianlong (seated on the right)
surrounded by family members and courtiers in the grounds of
an Imperial Palace. The plate is sadly very badly
damaged. It has been broken into several pieces and repaired
with metal staples. In fact it has been repaired more than
once in it's 250 years as can been seen in the final
picture. The damage, although visible from the front, is
overall not to disfiguring.

Condition
Badly damaged and repaired
with metal staples.
