<p>[QUOTE="finding_antiques, post: 9469183, member: 12512"]Hi [USER=6808]@sunday silence[/USER] - nice items! To me the first and last photos (multi-color cup + saucer) look to be 18th century Chinese, likely Qianlong period, decorated in the "Amsterdam Bont" style. These were blue and white export pieces intended for the European market that were then decorated by Dutch artists after reaching Europe. Here is some additional info on the style and an example from eBay:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://gotheborg.com/glossary/amsterdamsbont.shtml" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://gotheborg.com/glossary/amsterdamsbont.shtml" rel="nofollow">https://gotheborg.com/glossary/amsterdamsbont.shtml</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/133667296796" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/133667296796" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/133667296796</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The middle photos (the saucer with the swirl) looks to be a late 19th / early 20th century Chinese Qing period dish intended for the southeast Asian market (primarily Malaysia / Singapore). This style is often referred to as "Kitchen Qing" and you'll regularly see pieces with Chinese characters drilled into the front like yours (possibly the owners name / belonging to a restaurant).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
