Chinese Art Deco Persimmon Vase with White Cranes, circa 1920s

About the Item

Drawing on the enduring phoenix tail form that dates to China’s Bronze Age, this porcelain vase from the 1920s exhibits the sinuous lines and gilded refinement that helped to define the Art Deco style of the early 20th century.
