Description:
Chinese copper red dish, with rare Qianlong kaishu script six-character mark and of the period (1736-1795), with shallow rounded sides and everted rim, the interior and the sides covered in a deep ruby red glaze. Diameter 18 cm. The kaishu script mark possibly indicates that this dish was made in the first two years of the reign, before the mark was standardized. See Allen’s Authentication of Later Chinese Porcelain, p. 186. This dish is illustrated in ibid., p. 186-187, fig. 105.1 and 2. Provenance: Tony Allen’s Antiques, circa 1995; Dr. John A. and Louise Gray 'Mark and Period' Collection.
