Dish with pheasant and openworked edge

Platter with a pheasant, flowering plants, and valuables. A porcelain plate with a rim of interlocking pierced rings, painted in underglaze blue and on the glaze red, green, aubergine and gold. On the surface a pheasant on a rock, among blooming plants in a medallion with a band of zigzag work and a flower in a cartouche; the wall with flowering branches and valuables (books, double diamond, Artemisia leaf, and a ruyi scepter); the back with two flowering branches. Guaranteed original and from the period mentioned. Diameter: 27.0 centimeters Condition: The object is in good condition, with small glaze defects, a small restoration to the rings. The condition has been carefully checked with strong UV light and bright, transmissive white light. I bought this item at an auction and had it verbally appraised by an antiquarian. He could hardly detect the restorations to the rings with UV light, so minimal and so professionally executed they are. The platter comes from the transitional period between Kangxi and Yongzheng, and with its pierced rim it is a unique object. Shipping method: This object will be securely packaged and shipped.

Estimate:£381.25
