Features: During the Qianlong period, white-ground and colored-ground famille rose porcelain achieved significant accomplishments simultaneously. The white-ground famille rose pieces possess a snow-like texture and vibrant colors, with exquisite painting. Colored-ground famille rose exhibits a wide variety of styles, utilizing different combinations of colored glazes to create new color effects. Meanwhile, the emergence of imitative famille rose further demonstrated the large-scale adaptation of sister arts into porcelain, bronze, jade, lacquerware, textiles, bamboo weaving, ivory carving, and both fresh and dried fruits, with rare delicacies and treasures all replaced by porcelain to such an extent that their texture is indistinguishable from the originals. This book features over 300 Qianlong famille rose porcelain pieces, categorized into nearly 30 types based on their colors and glazing techniques. Additionally, it provides introductions to the glazing craftsmanship, patterns, and inscriptions, offering readers a fresh understanding of Qianlong famille rose porcelain.
