China – Pair of Canton porcelain planters, “Famille Rose,” with their saucers – 19th century A charming pair of small, quadrangular Chinese porcelain planters, accompanied by their matching rectangular saucers. Each planter features a rich polychrome decoration in “Famille Rose” glazes, depicting scenes of figures in traditional Chinese costumes in interiors and gardens, surrounded by floral arrangements, butterflies, birds, and geometric friezes. The four upper corners are topped with small white porcelain spheres. The planters rest on four small feet and have a drainage hole at the base.

This decorative set is distinguished by its rich colors, the delicacy of its figurative scenes, and its elegant composition—characteristics typical of 19th-century Canton porcelain.
