Chinese Milk and Blood Monochrome Transfer Ware Plates Boys Butterflies Blossoms




I could not resist picking up these charming plates even though I have little information to offer about them.

I am unsure of their age or country of origin. 

They are well made porcelain, red transfer ware with some hand embellished gilding.

4 plates in all. They are 9 1/2 inches in diameter. 

They feature bucolic scenes of young boys at leisure, and one is a vase scene.

They are all tied together by the color, the butterflies, and the branches of blossoms.

They are in very good condition and have seen little if any use. They have shelf and wash wear.

There is kiln grit, some iron spots, and one glazed over rim chip among various minor manufacturing flaws.

Please examine all photos to be sure these are to your liking.


Offered for your consideration in a 10 day auction with a low opening bid.

Good luck and thank you so much for taking a look.
