Oval stove with pierced sides and FitzHugh border c. 1800 - 1820

This 19th century Chinese stove is a prime example of blue and white porcelain, a decorative style that was popular during the Qing dynasty. The piece features intricate floral motifs and a pierced design that allowed for ventilation. The stove, which is now on display at the Rijksmuseum, is a beautiful and functional example of traditional Chinese craftsmanship.
