This is a very rare armorial plate most likely celebrating a marriage between 2 European noble families. Nice pink rose palette with gold trim. Of course the center armorials of the 2 houses together with a handshake. Sorry I can't identify the crests. The five point crown points to the rank of the nobility. Those little roses scattered around, so typical of this period. Very nice form with the undulating rim. No marks.
About 1.8" high x 9" rim diameter. No chips hairlines or repairs. Very slight wear on the gilt and enamel is in fine condition. Very good condition. This is a rare period Chinese export armorial, quite rare.
