清雍正　鬥彩蔓草紋盤　雙圈六字楷書款

The elegant, foliate arabesque design in the center of the present dish, sometimes referred to as “honeysuckle,” can be found on small wucai Yongzheng-marked bowls, such as the example sold at Christie’s New York, 29 March 2006, lot 493, also from the Alsdorf Collection. The motif can also be found on later Qing-dynasty wucai dishes; see a pair of Guangxu-marked examples from the Michael D. Stevenson Collection, sold at Christie’s New York, 4-18 December 2013, lot 26 (part).
