Extremely Rare Chinese Enameled Qianlong Saucers, Plates Circa 1750

Absolutely gorgeous and extremely rare set of 3 Qianlong cup stands or plates in Imperial enamel colors of ocre, green and a rich turquoise blue in the ground supporting enamel sgrafitto decorations.

Circa 1736 - 1795 and they measure 4 1/2" in diameter and 3/4" high.

These beautiful stands/plates are surrounded by a 1/4" hand painted gold gilt cords on a pigeon blood ground.

The interior is a gorgeous incised sgrafitto enamel decoration with four floral hand painted decorations and then the center has the hand painted Shou character roundel in red.

The back sides are showing the Imperial bat designs and are inscribed with an under glaze Qianlong 6 character seal mark and they are of the period. The 6 character seals are all done by hand.

We feel these are the "creme de la creme" in both color and design. We are pricing them at a low price, as these are the real thing. Two similar cup stands sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong in 2010 for $225,000 HKD ($29,012.85 USD).

We feel these cup stands/plates are in exceptional condition for the period, wear commensurate with age and use, so please look at photos. The green cup stand/plate has very minor rubbing and a very minor chip along the outside edge (less than an 1/8") of the center rim, which could easily be fixed. The upper rim in this area is flat and exceptional.

This would be a great opportunity to own a great find.
