A small famille rose enameled circular planterChu xiu gong zhi mark, late Qing/Republic period
Thickly potted with curving well and a slightly everted rim, the exterior walls enameled with children at play under the watchful gaze of ladies surrounded by auspicious emblems within an interior scene, the clear glaze covering all surfaces except the foot, the recessed base bearing the four-character mark in iron red (firing flaws, losses).
