Presenting a dynamically painted and substantial vintage porcelain charger, executed in vibrant underglaze cobalt blue against a creamy white ground.
The center of the dish features a large, fierce five-clawed dragon, painted with intricate scales, sharp claws, and a dramatic, flowing mane. The dragon is depicted chasing a flaming pearl amidst stylized, swirling clouds. The wide, flattened rim is similarly decorated with two additional, energetic dragons in pursuit of pearls, creating a continuous, rhythmic composition around the plate.
The base is glazed white and features a blue six-character seal mark reading "大清乾隆年製" (Made in the Great Qing Qianlong Period), indicating a later tribute piece. A red wax seal is also present, along with a vintage paper label reading "Robert DUPUY, ANTIQUITÉS - TABLEAUX - OBJETS D'ARTS" located on rue de Bailleul in Paris. This provides excellent provenance, showing the piece was handled by a French antiques dealer. This is a stunning statement piece for display on a stand or as a wall hanging.
