Famille rose armorial porcelain plate, 18th century, Qianlong period, China
A very beautiful mid-18th century famille rose porcelain plate with family crest, 9 inches in diameter and 0.7 inches high, with a large and extensive monogram in the center, possibly from a Dutch baronial family, with the initials VD (or DL), wearing a baronial crown? , surrounded by branches and bouquets of flowers, covered with beautiful overglaze famille rose gold enamel. According to the previous owner of the plate, the plate may have come from the Van Dedem family or the De Lawick family. I don’t know if this inference is correct. Please judge for yourself. I can confirm that the porcelain plate is a badge porcelain exported from China to Europe in the 18th century (Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty). The condition of the plate is not bad, there is a long crack, which has been simply glued and will not expand further, and there are small cracks on the edge of the plate similar to mouse bites, which will not affect the display effect. The display stand is not for sale.
