Chinese Porcelain Cabinet Vase - "The Four Immortals" - Republic Period Style - 25 cm - mid-20th Century Description: An elegant Chinese porcelain cabinet vase decorated in the traditional Qianjiang Cai style, dating to the mid-20th century.

The scenes include classic Taoist symbolism, such as the pine tree (longevity) and the flute. The execution of the figures shows refined detail in the facial expressions and the traditional robes.
