One hand-painted Chinese export porcelain plate with an octagonal shape. The body is a grayish-white with only a very slight orange peel texture. The edges are ground and colored an orange-brown. Large maroon flowers, along with leaves and smaller flowers of different colors fill the center and create a border around the edge. A thin, scrolling line (now partially worn off) was painted to define the center from the outer border. The paint feels fairly thick to the touch, and the decoration was painted in maroon, orange, yellow, blue, purple, light green and dark green.Collection
