This goblet and plate depicting Western women (top) is an example of champleve enamel, which was especially popular during the reign of the Ching Dynasty Emperor Ch'ien Lung (1736-1795).
After the technique of producing enamelware was introduced from the West, fundamental changes in the process were made. For example, the Chinese directly applied a pattern to the vessel's surface, instead of using raised copper wire.
The bottom picture is also an example of Ch'ien Lung ware. On this tea pot, cup, and plate with flower and bird decor, enamel is painted directly on to the surface before the piece is fired. This method, also imported from the West, was first used in Canton, but later spread throughout China.
The plate is decorated with pink flowers and bears an inscription in formal style.
