Lidded vase - Porcelain

This beautiful porcelain lidded vase captivates with its colorful, hand-painted decoration in enamel glaze. Before the dark blue background of water and sky, scenes around the Chinese garden pond delight the viewer. Lotus blossoms and their splendid leaves, colorful butterflies, grasshoppers, fish, a funny frog and a pair of mandarin ducks are to be discovered. The object has been given a light artificial patina, which makes it even more valuable. The colors shown may vary somewhat depending on lighting and screen.
