An authentic late 19th-century Chinese export porcelain tea set, dating to the Qing Dynasty, featuring a Famille Rose Medallion design. This rare set includes a barrel-form teapot with lid and two matching teacups, all hand-painted with exquisite detail.
The porcelain is decorated with alternating medallion panels: figural courtyard scenes paired with birds, butterflies, and peonies, all highlighted with delicate gilt accents. The teapot features a double red cord handle and a snug-fitting lid—an elegant and uncommon form made specifically for Western export markets. The absence of a “Made in China” mark confirms a pre-1890s origin.
A beautiful example of 19th-century Chinese craftsmanship, prized by collectors of Qing porcelain and Rose Medallion wares.
