Description
A Chinese porcelain Qing Dynasty-style representation of a court lady or empress. The figure is a female court official, likely an empress, as suggested by the elaborate robe and traditional court attire from the Qing Dynasty period (1644-1911). It is made of hand-painted porcelain with vibrant, multi-colored glazes in a style sometimes referred to as famille rose or wucai. The intricate details on the clothing are characteristic of this artistic style. Such figurines were often created as decorative items to represent Chinese culture, history, and royalty. The object she is holding, possibly a cloth or fan, may symbolize prestige, wealth, or specific courtly activities. Good condition.
