A Chinese Famille Rose Celadon-Glazed Porcelain Plate, 19th Century

The reverse features a recessed white-glazed centre bearing a four-character seal mark in underglaze blue. This style of decoration is characteristic of the late Qing Dynasty, often produced for the Western market. Diameter: approximately 30 cm.
