{"product_id":"blue-white-chinoiserie-fluted-serving-dish","title":"Caughley Attributed Blue and White Willow Nankin Fluted Porcelain Dessert Dish","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwelve moulded flutes shape this blue and white dessert dish attributed to Caughley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lozenge-shaped dish carries a Willow Nankin-type river scene with pavilions and boats, surrounded by a geometric border with floral and butterfly motifs. The fluted sides rise to a scalloped rim, giving the decoration a changing surface rather than a flat plate-like frame. The underside is unmarked, with a creamy white glaze and greenish-yellow pooling within the foot rim. Published auction comparisons include unmarked Caughley dishes of similar form and decoration, supporting a qualified comparison rather than a definitive factory identification. The proposed late eighteenth-century period belongs to that attribution.
