This pair of Chinese export porcelain plates is a beautiful representation of late 19th-century artistry. Each plate features hand-painted enamels depicting a bird perched on a branch, surrounded by an array of flowers and fauna. The intricate scene is framed by a geometric border in yellow and red, with a striking blue outer border that adds to the overall appeal.

The plates are marked "China" on the back, dating them to the 1890s when this mark was required for export items.
