(5) Chinese Imperial Jingdezhen "Beauties of the Red Mansion" Export Porcelain Plates. Lot comprised of five hand-painted Chinese export porcelain plates in the Beauties of the Red Mansion series, depicting well-appointed women in beautiful dress, in various imperial settings.
The Beauties of the Red Mansion is a limited-edition series of twelve collector plates—each approximately 8.5 inches in diameter—produced in the mid- to late-1980s at the prestigious Imperial kilns of Jingdezhen and issued through the Bradford Exchange. Crafted by master artisan Zhao Huimin, each plate portrays a heroine from the classic 18th-century Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions in richly detailed, hand-painted scenes. Produced between roughly 1985 and 1989, the set was marketed with original boxes, certificates of authenticity, and an official numbering system. Although no longer in production, the plates remain sought after on the secondary market, offering decorative appeal and literary resonance for collectors of Chinese-themed art and porcelain.
Diameter: 8 1/2 in.
