Handpainted Chinese Enamel Cat Animal Teacup Jingdezhen Master Ceramic Artwork

This Jingdezhen artwork teacup is painted with Chinese cats and is made by a Chinese Jingdezhen experienced craftsman. 

The cat-and-butterfly pattern is very common in traditional Chinese ceramics. It sounds like "Mao die 耄耋", which means longevity. The image of a cute cat chasing a butterfly is painted with a strong plush feeling, which is very vivid and interesting.

During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty (1662-1722), French metal enamel craftsmanship was introduced to China. Later, through the innovation of Chinese craftsmen, Chinese mineral pigments were used and replaced with porcelain bodies, forming enamel porcelain. Enamel porcelain is an overglaze color (on-glaze decoration), After firing, the enamel-colored porcelain will feel convex to the touch.

The themes of enamel porcelain are mostly painted with symmetrical floral patterns such as peonies, roses, lotus, and chrysanthemums in colors such as yellow, red, blue, pea green, and purple.

Two styles are available: a teacup with a turquoise bottom/ a teacup with a pink bottom.
