Painted with the eight immortals standing on scrolling clouds in an underglaze blue highlighted in gold gilding.

Very fine iron red detailing on the dish overall.

The apocryphal mark Xuande to the centre of the base.

Small missed circle finish on the reverse presumably due to a firing fault, some minor superficial wear to the gilding, otherwise immaculate.
