Pair of 2 Fine Chinese Porcelain Left-Right Serving Platters withBraided Handles

  

I'm extremely pleased to offer for sale this gorgeous pair of two fine Chinese porcelain famille blanc serving platters with the following fine features. Main color is white with a myriad of other colors, including gold, blue, green, red, aqua, and tan. Hand-painted left and right-facing cartouches of figural scenes, including city dwelling and flowers in central lobe. Prominent gilt acanthus motif on galleries front and back and parcel gilt on scalloped rims. Braided handles with intertwined gold and white rope.

Each platter measures 12" wide (from handle to handle) x 8.5" deep x 3 tall. These are quite substantial, weighing 3 pounds 3 ounces each.

In outstanding condition, with no significant or noteworthy imperfections, but rather wear indicative of normal age and use. Dark blue maker's mark underglaze shows HW inside a crest beneath a crown.
