Description : | Octagonal-sided plate with rim indentation. A floral festoon design painted in polychrome enamel in the European style decorates the border area, which is reserved between two pink-coloured decorative bands. The armorial bearings are at the centre of the plate: the Arms of Ramsay Impaling Knight. The colour of the porcelain body has the grey-blue tone associated with Chinese export porcelain. The plate is in the "private trade" category of export porcelain. Chinese export wares decorated with the armorial bearings of European families are perhaps the best known. They were not imported by the East India Companies but are classed as Private Trade goods, ordered from China through a dealer and transported, mainly, by independent ships' captains. Inevitably, there were some misunderstandings in interpreting colour and design instructions. One family received a dinner service with the written and colour instructions enamelled as part of the perceived design. (per Kathleen Campbell, Curator Emerita) |
