The decoration in underglaze blue, overglaze enamels and gold imitates the characteristic colour scheme and design of Japanese export porcelain in Imari style. This ware, produced in the kilns of Arita in Hizen province, was named after the port in western Japan from where it was exported to Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries. \r\n\r\nJapanese wares in Imary style were imitated at the kilns of Jingdezhen from the late 17th century. During the Kangxi period (1662-1722) Chinese Imari became a popular export ware for Europe, where several factories, in turn, imitated the style during the 18th century.","physicalDescription":"Porcelain dish with broad rim painted in underglaze blue, overglaze enamels and gilding in imitation of Imari ware with a central medallion containing a vase of flowers on a terrace, surrounded by three panels with peonies, birds and flowers in the <i>famille verte</i> colour scheme alternating with three of chrysanthemums and prunus blossoms in red and gold on a blue ground. Four flower sprays are on the outside.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Unknown","id":"A1848"},"association":{"text":"","id":""},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"porcelain","id":"AAT10662"}],"techniques":[{"text":"underglazing","id":"AAT48642"},{"text":"overglazing","id":"AAT53918"},{"text":"gilding","id":"AAT53789"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Porcelain decorated in underglaze blue, overglaze enamels and gilt","categories":[{"text":"Porcelain","id":"THES48907"},{"text":"Ceramics","id":"THES48982"},{"text":"Food vessels & Tableware","id":"THES48952"}],"styles":[{"text":"Qing","id":"AAT18478"},{"text":"Imari","id":"AAT18595"},{"text":"Chinese export","id":"AAT120350"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"EAS","id":"THES48596"},"images":["2006BF4997","2017KC2871"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"136 (VA)","id":"THES49877"},"free":"","case":"5","shelf":"1","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Dish","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"China","id":"x29398"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1715-1725","earliest":"1710-01-01","latest":"1725-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Salting Bequest","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","value":"54","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"Bequeathed by Mr. George Salting, accessioned in 1910.
