A Nice Pair of Antique Qing Dynasty hand-painted Rose Medallion teacups and saucers. Crafted in China during the mid-19th century, likely during the Qing Dynasty, these porcelain pieces showcase the hallmark traits of traditional Canton export porcelain - vivid enamels, gilded highlights, and intricate narrative scenes.
Each cup and saucer is adorned with alternating panels of courtly figures and natural elements—birds, butterflies, and florals—all delicately hand-rendered in the famille rose palette. A testament to the craftsmanship and cultural storytelling of the era, these pieces are as collectible as they are beautiful – circa 1850.
Measurements:
Height (cup and saucer): 2 1/2" (approx. 6.5cm)
Diameter of saucer: 5 1/2" (approx. 14cm)
Total weight: 580g
In good condition – Bright enamels remain vibrant with minor age-related wear to the gilding. Some light surface marks and glaze irregularities typical of hand-painted antique porcelain. No visible cracks or repairs.
