About the Item
A Magnificent Set of Three Antique Chinese Cinnabar Lacquer Vases/cashepots/flower pots; with Gorgeous Chinese Carved Decoration. This set of three lacquer brush pots feature intricate relief carving on a rich crimson frieze. Each vase is shaped like a stout tube, with a geometrically patterned lip at the neck and base. The frieze features different scenes, meant to tell a unique story between the figures. The engraving spans across the entirety of the vases’ surface. On the leftmost vase is a scene of men frolicking and dancing, riding on the back of a friendly lion, and happily drinking tea. The middle vase shows men engaged in scholarly conversation, reading books, and employing an elephant as a stationary chair. Finally, excitement returns in the rightmost vase, where men, dragons, and deities lark about across the land and sky. The rich crimson tone of these vases is the predominant color of carved lacquer—also called cinnabar. To produce the color of the lacquer, artisans used a form of powdered mercury sulfide. Lacquer is one of the most prominent decorative mediums used in China.

View All18th C. Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose Mandarin 3-Piece Vase Garniture Set
Located in New York, NY
An 18th century Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose Mandarin 3-Piece vase Garniture Set. A status symbol between the 17th and 19th centuries, most garniture sets have by now been damaged or broken up with the individual pieces sold off. Few complete sets now exist, and even fewer survive in their original state, which makes this beautifully painted set of three Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose vases so much more special. With mandarin orange and gilt unusually bold and swooping dragon handles, each delicately decorated vase is completed with a lid seating a gloriously pompous foo dog. The bodies are decorated with hand painted famille rose flowerpot cartouches, as well as, chirping birds, and banded flowers and vines.
The exquisite hand painted tastefully colored floral displays each with their own hand painted vase creates a freshness and inspires within us the IDEA for further additions of fresh flowers within the home. One of the porcelain, three (3) piece garniture set, is smaller and has a variation of banded colors around its fluted foot, lending just the right amount of visual variation to this gorgeous trio. The white porcelain bulbous bodies are further decorated with colorful insects...
