Product Description
This striking Heng Ming Jian Zhi porcelain dish, dating to around 1980, is richly decorated with butterflies surrounded by cascading floral motifs. Measuring 23 cm in diameter and 5 cm in height, the piece displays lavish hand-painted detailing highlighted with heavy gilt lining and a vibrant red and purple palette.
Produced in Macao, China, this style reflects the artistry of late-20th-century export porcelain, blending traditional Chinese symbolism with Western decorative influences. The butterfly—symbolising joy, love, and transformation—features prominently, while the intricate border and crackle glaze add depth and elegance.
A beautiful example of modern Chinese craftsmanship from the era when Macao artists combined heritage motifs with luxurious gold accents for collectors worldwide.
