This plate from the Qing dynasty is a stunning porcelain piece adorned with a deep indigo glaze, showcasing exceptional artistry and craftsmanship. The glaze on the surface is uniform yet exhibits subtle gradations, with the natural "kiln-transformation" effects beautifully displayed. This technique is a hallmark of Qing dynasty porcelain, particularly renowned during the Kangxi period (1661–1722). The reverse side of the plate bears a clear underglaze blue inscription reading "Da Qing Kangxi Nian Zhi" (Made in the Kangxi Era of the Great Qing), reflecting the refined elegance and prestige of works from this era.
The allure of this plate lies not only in its historical background but also in the exquisite glaze and meticulous craftsmanship. The rich and dense indigo hue, characteristic of high-quality Qing dynasty porcelain, was often reserved for imperial or luxury items, showcasing the advanced production techniques and aesthetic sensibilities of the time. The plate's rim and foot show no visible chips or cracks, and the overall preservation is remarkable. The finishing on the footring is finely executed, balancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The inscription on the reverse is well-preserved, further demonstrating the high level of skill achieved by artisans during the Kangxi period.
Porcelain items from the Qing dynasty, like this plate, hold immense artistic and cultural value. Highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts today, such pieces not only serve as exceptional decorative items that add sophistication to any space but also provide a glimpse into the mastery and ingenuity of Qing-era craftsmanship. This plate, with its timeless beauty and rich history, is undoubtedly a remarkable and unique piece.
