    Yesterday, i noticed that my crew were using this plate while propagating cuttings. I've never seen this plate before and they said that they just found it there... bizarre! I think it's pretty old - 18th c - Qianlong? or maybe an old Japanese Arita plate? The rim is brown. Any info appreciated.

      you are mixing it up , , you think the reverse bubble are japanese kiln spurs, actually it is a tiny baking rupture

      second of all in the japanese porcelain tokagawa period the karakusa garland would probably appear or the floral garlands are more sturdy

      3 the japanese don,t use fleur de lis design

      this is coffeerim , right afterglaring , and almost all the fleur de lis inner rim design is qianlong

      the garlands reverse are an nicked swirl design kangxi, quadro floral obverse , so it is probably early quianlong

      it don,t know know the the exact date, there is probably documentation about this in the Geldermansen Nanking Cargo ,, but too lazy

      see Coronari actions Seven Chinese blue and white plates with floral design, Yongzheng/Qianlong

      i knew it the nicked the kangxi garlands in Yongzheng blue in the diaper version , this is de fleur the lis version , can,t be far off

      Merry Christmas / Happy Hannukah / Solstice Tallcakes, apostata, jscotto amd everyone at CW! Thank you for the info apostata. i did actually think it was Qianlong - because of the fleur de lis border, but i did not dare to presume it to be Chinese since i've so often been wrong about that. But i believe it was you who once mentioned that the more clearly drawn the fleur de lis design, the earlier it is.
      And they are very clear here. Early Qianlong / Yongzheng?! wow! and my crew was using this plate at the nursery to hold cutting materials while propagating. I have NO idea how it got there.

      Thank you for pointing it out TallCakes! my face is red. but that's what happens as i get older and have way too much stuff! growing up in northern New England, i went to a lot of those small town museums which grew out of the Victorian cabinets of curiosities of the local gentry. Heaven for me is the cabinet of curiosity in the sky - with endless puzzles, stories, interesting things to see and touch and hold!
