About the Item
A pair of large and extremely decorative Chinese export faux Swedish Porphyry ceramic covered vases with various sea creature designs in high relief. These are truly a gorgeous pair of covered vases. Each is beautifully hand painted to mimic Swedish porphyry with a dark grey ground and speckled white patterns. Around the body of each vase are two dragons carved in relief flying towards one another and terminating at the mouth with a flaming sun between them. Each dragon has gorgeous scales and multiple carved relief claws. Around the upper neck of the vases are "C" shaped sea creatures applied to the body, which are also beautifully carved. The tops have variable finials, one being a food dog and the other being a rounded end.
