About the Item
This tall Chinese porcelain altar vase is decorated in classic blue and white with a subtle celadon tint, featuring an elegant flared rim measuring approximately 8 inches in diameter. The vase’s surface depicts a dynamic scene of a dragon and phoenix amid swirling clouds — a powerful pairing symbolizing balance and harmony between masculine and feminine forces in Chinese mythology.
Finely painted in deep cobalt tones, the design showcases the mythical qilin and phoenix in motion, surrounded by cloud scrolls rendered with expressive brushwork. The dual openwork handles, shaped like stylized dragons, add sculptural depth and visual interest. The light celadon glaze softens the porcelain body, giving the piece a refined, ethereal quality when viewed in natural light.
Perfect as a standalone statement piece or displayed in a pair on an altar table, this vase exemplifies traditional Chinese craftsmanship and the enduring allure of blue-and-white porcelain. Its monumental scale and balanced proportions make it ideal for interiors that bridge classical and contemporary styles.
