Chinese soft-paste porcelain is a bit of a misnomer as it differs from European soft-paste. Ironically inspired by early European attempts to produce hard-paste porcelain, it first appeared during the Kangxi period around 1700 reaching its height of popularity in the 2nd quarter of the 18th century. Expensive to produce, it was never made in great quantity. The fine slip applied to the surface proved particularly receptive to underglaze painting allowing the artist to produce densely patterned compositions as seen on the present vase.
