Unusual 18th Century Chinese Export Porcelain Dish

This unique 18th Century Chinese Porcelain Dish is a high quality export. The decoration is very detailed. The focal point is a pond scene within the shape of a leaf surrounded by flowers and foliage. The border design is an intricate combination of ruyi heads and flowers interspersed with other varied patterns.

The plate is approximately 8.5 inches. There are small chips along the rim. There is some loss of enamel which is consistent with age and use.
