A pair of chinese soft paste porcelain plates painted in very fine detail in underglaze blue with lakeside pagodas. Soft paste porcelain is uncommon and was far more expensive to produce. The fine detail of the painting is astonishing (study photos).Dating from the mid C18th (Qianlong), they each measure 9 1/2inches (24.2 cm) max across. PLATE 1: has frits/ small chips to the rim but no cracks. PLATE 2: has a couple of small chips and related short, faint hairlines.
