Large Chinese Cinnabar Lacquered Vase
About the Item
A very large, well crafted Chinese cinnabar lacquered vase with copper / brass lining, circa 1950's. The vase are 19" high and 9" in diameter and in very good vintage condition. #2482
The surface of the vase is finely carved with a Chinese scene and flowering branches on a geometric patterned ground. The process of creating a cinnabar piece is intricate and time consuming; lacquer is applied coat by coat to the core in up to 200 coats, or until a thickness that could be carved was achieved. This requires an enormous amount of time and labor, as each layer must dry and be polished before the next layer is applied. Since lacquer hardens slowly, only one layer could be applied per day. When all the layers are applied, the craftsman can carve an elaborate design into the surface.
This piece is on copper/ brass body and the lining and base.

Mid-20th Century Chinese Hand Carved Cinnabar Vase
Located in Pomona, CA
This vase was made during the Mid-20th Century in Beijing. It is very unique with intricate carving works of landscaping and characters. The workmanship is superb.
