Vintage Famille Rose Canton Porcelain Plate with Lotus Medallions & Butterflies 10"

Featuring a uniquely stylized layout, this vintage Famille Rose Canton porcelain plate stands out for its lotus-shaped medallions radiating outward from the central butterfly wheel. Design is set against an opulent gilded gold ground adorned with pink peonies, trailing vines, and whimsical butterflies. The central medallion showcases a flurry of fluttery butterflies—symbolic of joy and longevity—encircled by six petal-form lotus reserves hand-painted with auspicious botanicals, including peaches, finger citrons, and pomegranates. Finished with a decorative diaper-lattice rim, this gilded plate makes an exceptional statement piece for a gallery wall, plate stand, or sideboard display. 10" dia China, mid-to-late 20th century For decorative purposes only; not food safe Excellent vintage condition, no chips or cracks. Minimal surface wear to hand-painted enamels - they remain bright and vibrant Care & Safety: To preserve the delicate hand-painted enamel and gold accents, hand-wash only. Not suitable for microwave or dishwasher use. Many of our vintage porcelain pieces, such as Rose Canton and Famille Rose, feature hand-painted overglaze enamels. These traditional pigments may contain trace minerals that do not meet modern FDA food-safety standards; thus, we recommend them for decorative use. They make a stunning wall display or can be used as chargers under clear glass plates to protect the integrity of the design and ensure safety.
