A pair of blue and green Chinese porcelain plates, each featuring a hand-painted design of a fish in motion. The fish are depicted in traditional cobalt blue with a distinctive green pattern on their bodies, swimming against a white background with subtle wave motifs. Each plate measures approximately 7 inches in diameter. The plates exhibit the classic elegance and simplicity of traditional Chinese porcelain design.
Narrative History: Fish are significant symbols in Chinese culture, often representing abundance, wealth, and prosperity. The combination of blue and green in these plates adds a unique and modern twist to the traditional blue and white porcelain style, which has been celebrated for centuries for its beauty and craftsmanship. These plates likely date to the mid-20th century and reflect the enduring appeal of traditional Chinese motifs in decorative arts.
Condition
The plates are in excellent condition with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs. The painted designs remain vivid and clear, and the glaze is smooth and glossy.
