A blue and white Chinese porcelain plate featuring a detailed hand-painted design of blooming peonies and foliage. The design is executed in traditional cobalt blue, a hallmark of Chinese porcelain artistry. The plate measures approximately 10.5 inches in diameter, as indicated by the ruler placed alongside it. The intricate floral pattern showcases the high level of craftsmanship and artistic skill.

 Blue and white porcelain has been a significant aspect of Chinese ceramic art since the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368). This style became widely popular during the Ming Dynasty and continued to be cherished throughout the Qing Dynasty and into the modern era. The motifs of peonies symbolize prosperity and honor in Chinese culture, making such pieces not only beautiful but also culturally significant.

Condition

The plate is in excellent condition with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs. The glaze is smooth and the painted design remains sharp and vibrant.
