A Jingdezhen porcelain teacup rest, beautifully styled in the shape of a moon rising over the horizon. This exquisite porcelain cup mat is produced in Jingdezhen, China’s famous porcelain capital. The classic blue and white pattern on its face shows flowing, intertwined chrysanthemum and peony flowers, with the symbol in the middle of the pattern signifying longevity and health. The tea saucer’s edges show a pattern of crashing waves in gold and red.
Blue-and-white porcelain dates back to the Yuan Dynasty, but the subsequent Ming Dynasty is regarded by some scholars as the highest peak of China’s porcelain industry, and its most representative work is in blue and white. This piece calls back to this classic Chinese aesthetic, giving your tea table a touch of Ming literati vibes. Learn more about this antique Qing Hua style of Jingdezhen porcelain.
