A set of Chinese blue and white porcelain saucer dish of the Kangxi period (1662–1722), with a gently scalloped rim and moulded decoration. The central decagonal panel is painted with a Long Eliza figure depicted seated beside a table and holding a lotus flower. To one side stands a lotus jardinière on a tall stand, set amongst rockwork and stylised plantain leaves.
The broad rim is divided into ten radiating moulded panels, alternately decorated with flowering peony and other floral sprays, and standing Long Eliza figures within fenced garden settings. The panels are separated by pairs of narrow blue lines, creating a balanced and elegant composition characteristic of Kangxi export wares.
The Long Eliza motif, depicting a slender Chinese lady often shown with flowers, was among the most popular decorative themes on late 17th- and early 18th-century Chinese export porcelain. In the Netherlands the figure became known as Lange Lijs (Lange Lijzen), from which the English term Long Eliza was derived.
The reverse is decorated with a continuous foliate and floral scroll and bears the underglaze-blue character 玉 (yu, “jade”) enclosed within a double circle. This so-called
jade mark was used on fine-quality porcelain from the Kangxi period onward and symbolically associated the ceramic with the purity, refinement, and value traditionally attributed to jade.
