Famille rose porcelain is a type of Chinese porcelain that features opaque overglaze enamels in shades of pink and carmine. The term "famille rose" is French for "pink family". The technique originated in Europe and was introduced to China in the late 17th century. It's thought that Western Jesuits working at the palace during the reign of Kangxi (1654–1722) brought the color palette to China. Famille rose porcelain became especially popular during the reign of Yongzheng (1722–35) in the Qing dynasty. It was in production until the early 1900s. The technique involves painting overglaze enamels on porcelain and then firing it again at a lower temperature. This allows artists to achieve subtle gradations in color. Famille rose porcelain features free-flowing floral designs, landscapes, and figures. In China, famille rose porcelain is known by various terms, including fencai, ruancai, yangcai, and falangcai. Yangcai means "foreign colors" because the colors were introduced from Europe.
