In creating what we consider the most exceptional inventory you’ll find around, Chairish seeks out antique and artisan-created pieces that exude beauty or tell a story. We think you get a clear sense of both with our array of hand-painted Chinese plates, including new, vintage and antique styles.
Explore History
These antique Chinese plates reflect two types of painting styles: Those used by artisans centuries ago in East Asia, including during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and Chinoiserie. While you might spot similarities, Chinoiserie, seen on select vintage China-style plates and bowls, is a European-originating technique based on the French rococo method used in the 17th century and heavily influenced by trade relations between the West and China over the next century. Vintage decorative plates trace its revival at multiple points during the 20th century — including as recent as the 1980s and ‘90s.
