[QUOTE="Francisco G Kempton, post: 4311312, member: 22714"]There are three main types of late 19th and 20th century Famille rose canton export. 1.Famille Mandrin 2.Famille Canton and 3.Famille Medallion. [B]Famille Mandarin: [/B]This is composed of people sitting in a coutyard as the main subject surrounded by birds and flowerrs fruits batc etc. [B]Famille Canton: [/B]This is where the main subject is birds and insects and flowers surrounded by a border of flowers and fruits etc [B]Famille Medallion:[/B] This is where there are people in cartouches and birds and insects in cartouches surrounded by a border of flowersa and fruits etc. In the centre you have a central medallion with birds and insects and fruit. There is also 18th century Mandrin which is slightly different. Your vase is not based on any of the above, it is not a famille rose but as Ce Bca has said it is based on a Tongzhi style but is an obvious later revival or copy. How later, not sure maybe PROC when they did copy alot of Tongzhi style. The drawings while very colourful and detailed are a little stiff. Proc is post 1949[/QUOTE]
