About MeWarm pinks and reds predominate in the Famille Rose style, which developed enamelling techniques to include a greater range of colour and more complex images. The palette of colours seems to have been influenced by European taste. The pattern, consisting of panels populated with flowers and groups of people in East Asian dress, is known as Rose Medallion.
