A fine example of a Chinese export porcelain wash basin and guglet, decorated with Mandarin scenes in overglaze Famille Rose enamels, along with landscape vignettes and ‘bird-on branch’ motifs all within various underglaze blue foliate borders and with gilded highlights…a rather luxurious item indeed, with which to wash and shave! Some very slight enamel wear, otherwise excellent condition. The guglet 9 1/2″ tall, the bowl 10″ in diameter. Circa 1770-1780.
