Hello Irina,

There is a Chinese painting methods that apparently use tools with a hard tip (possibly bamboo) instead of brush bristles, for making small dots. I assume that this method was used here, at least in part.

 Export
by: Irina

I could may be recognized blue and white export porcelain only by the shape of the plates and gilding on them. Recently I've hold in my hands real Kangxi B&W bowl and I thought it is brand new because I've never seen before the real thing. And the pattern look's like it was transferring not hand painted, but I was wrong. It was a real Kangxi and it's very impressive!
I've got an export B&W plate, I'll give the image later.
