Buyer's Premium:

A collection of Chinese porcelain tableware decorated in the traditional red-ground Famille Rose style, specifically the Mun Shou (Longevity) pattern. The group includes several rice bowls, multiple soup spoons, and a pair of spoon rests. Each piece is constructed from white porcelain with overglaze enamel decoration. The primary design features a red ground with polychrome scrolling lotus foliage and circular medallions. The bowls display the Chinese character 無 (Wú) within white medallions, while the spoons feature a stylized 壽 (Shòu) character, symbolising longevity. The rims are finished with a turquoise and yellow ruyi-head border. These items are characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century production from the Jingdezhen kilns. One spoon bears a handwritten circular sticker marked 13 and an auction lot label for Lot 592 is present.
