Antique 18th C Chinese Export Porcelain Creamer Jug, Famille Rose Figures
Description
Antique Chinese export porcelain creamer or small milk jug, 18th century, of baluster form with applied loop handle and shaped pouring lip. Finely hand-painted in famille rose enamels with figural scenes of robed courtly figures in garden and interior settings, framed by iron-red diaper borders and landscape elements. The palette includes soft greens, rose, aubergine, yellow, and iron-red detailing consistent with Qing dynasty export wares of the Qianlong period.
The glaze displays a soft translucency with characteristic pooling to the interior and natural wear to the footrim. The base is unmarked. Proportions and painted decoration reflect small-scale table wares produced for the European market in the mid-to-late 18th century.
Dimensions: approximately 4 in. high x 4 in. wide (including handle and spout).
Condition: Surface wear consistent with age, including minor glaze wear and footrim discoloration; no visible major restorations observed from provided images.
