About the Item

Pair of Chinese Porcelain Famille Rose Mandarin Garniture Vases - Circa 1790 Presenting a distinguished pair of porcelain Famille Rose Mandarin Garniture Vases with delightful gilt and vibrant mandarin orange-bellied dragon handles curving gracefully down, as if they have come to life to cling to the sides, lending an air of dynamic semi-realism to the composition. The lids are adorned with lavish 24K gilt detailed ornate foo dogs, adding an element of grandeur and whimsical charm to the overall presentation. The vases are adorned with meticulous hand-painted roses and vibrant blossoms, set against a white backdrop and surrounded by a detailed curly border of multicolored foliate, shells, banded flowers and intertwining vines, creating a harmonious visual tapestry. The captivating hand-painted floral arrangements within the cartouches infuse the vases with a sense of perpetual springtime, evoking a feeling of natural beauty and freshness. This matching porcelain pair has a series of gorgeous banded colors encircling their lower portions. At the base, the fluted feet exhibit a resplendent mandarin orange hue, highlighted with meticulous gilt detailing and this segues into a series of diamonds with emerald green centers. Rising elegantly, a translucent graded lavender fluted trim graces the lower body of the vases, introducing a refined visual contrast to the ensemble. The bulbous bodies of the vases are adorned with an artful interplay of elements, including vibrant insects, gilded shells, and meticulously rendered flowers. The lids feature gracefully looping flower swags along their edges, converging towards a delicate translucent emerald green geometric trim, further enhancing the intricate detailing. Opulent 24k gold accents embellish the vases, adding an opulent touch to their presentation, while the fully modeled gilt dragon handles extend from the sides to the shoulders, exuding an air of regal elegance. This remarkable pair of Chinese porcelain Famille Rose Mandarin vases stands as a testament to the craftsmanship during the 1700s, offering connoisseurs an opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich cultural heritage of China. A genuine embodiment of enduring beauty from centuries past, this pair represents a rare find that captures the essence of a bygone era with timeless grace.

The bodies are decorated with hand painted famille rose flowerpot cartouches, as well as, chirping birds, and banded flowers and vines.
