Porcelain painted in underglaze blue, iron-red enamel and gilt, with silver gilt | RCIN

A set of five Chinese porcelain plates painted in Japanese Imari style and with a European silver-gilt rim. Painted across the face is a landscape with a range of hills with a pagoda, and distant peaks among swirling mist, with a formalised tree, and chrysanthemums, prunus and other blooms in the foreground. On the reverse are two sketchy sprays.

Imari-style wares were made in China during the early eighteenth century to meet the Western demand which was no longer being satisfied from Japan. They are characterised by painting in underglaze blue combined with iron-red enamel and gilding, and at times further colours from the famille verte palette. The style was especially favoured in France, where wares painted with armorial devices were ordered by the court. George IV acquired important vases in this style, as well as numerous plates of an everyday character, many of them enhanced with silver-gilt rims, which were perhaps intended for dessert use for banquets at the Royal Pavilion, Brighton.
