Vintage Porcelain Large Underglaze Blue Tulipiere Vases, Chinese

About the Item

Vintage Porcelain Large Tulip Vase Pyramids, Chinese, Circa 2000 A pair of Tulipiere vases with each tulipiere made in four interconnecting pieces and painted in underglaze blue and white. The pattern is known as the Blue Onion Pattern. Each vase has twenty four openings for tulips or flowers opening to a hollow cavity for water. Dimensions: 31 1/4 inches tall x 8 3/4 inches square base. A "tulipiere" is a type of ornate vase, also known as a tulip vase or pyramid vase, designed to hold multiple stems of flowers, particularly tulips, in individual spouts. They are often made of Delftware and feature a shared water reservoir at the base. They are traditionally used for displaying cut flowers. On April 15, 2025, The Financial Times had an article titled, "Tulipieres for spring: still groundbreaking". There is a current exhibition at Chatsworth, The Gorgeous Nothings: Flowers at Chatsworth (until 5 October), which features 12 Delft tulipieres, ranging in height from 30cm to more than a metre tall. “We think they were ordered by the first Duke of Devonshire; they were made by The Greek A [De Grieksche A] factory – the same one that Queen Mary II ordered hers from,” notes Katherine Hardwick-Kulpa, assistant curator at the house.
