This enamel painted copper plate made during the reign of the Qing dynasty Kangxi Emperor, has a unique shape. Each of the 25 segments on the surface, created by wavy grid lines that align with the curvature of the waving rim, is decorated with a variety of delicately painted flowers. Taking inspiration from the rhythmic form of the plate, the pewter coasters feature four selected floral patterns, the plum blossom, daylily, peony and morning glory. The raised rim of the coaster is ornamented with tendril motif.
