<p>[QUOTE="Mat, post: 4354495, member: 369"]Thank you all for your comments! As for the age I meant late 18th c as 1780 or 1790. Yes, the dish is in good shape. It has some wear but no chips or cracks. This kind export porcelain, which is often called Canton blue & white, is generally more massive and has these footrims which remind late 19th c pieces. As to the style, the 19th c examples are more schematic and the border is different. IMO this border with the butterlies is an indicator that it is still a late Qianlong piece...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
