Early 20th Century Maroon Chinese Famille Rose Planter

Very Unique Burgandy Chinese Famille Hexagon Rose Planter.

And two of the sides have images of people. These images wraparound to cover a part of the other sides. One portrays Warriors, on horses doing battle, the other shows people eating and celebrating. The other sides have a Burgandy background with birds flying. There is a lot of purple throughout this planter, which is one of the things that makes it so unique. I actually thought the background was purple until I looked at my photos carefully and it’s probably actually more of a red than a purple. The top ridge of the planter and the saucer are decorated and so are the sides of the saucer. There is a red mark on the bottom, but I was not able to identify it, using my marks on Chinese ceramics by Gerald Davidson book.

My guarantee is that I will be honest about my items, and share what I know about them with you. Also, I will be fair with my pricing based on research, and I will also share this with you.

There are three steps involved in my research for pricing, and you can do this too.

1. Use an app called Google Lens to take a photo of any item. It will bring up similar items and how much they sell/sold for. This is also helpful in figuring out what to call or how to describe the item.

2. Do a Google search for the name of the item.

3. Do a search for the item by name on Chairish and another similar site.

Since I am being fair with my pricing, I want you to know how to do this. It will only help me by validating my pricing choices, and hopefully it will help you to recognize items that are overpriced.

Feel free to ask me any questions or to make an offer.

I have many more items to post, so please check back sometime.

Thank you!
