Description from the seller
Superb baluster vase in Chinese porcelain, authentic to the Republic era (early 20th century).
This piece is not only an art object, it is a historical witness with a complete and rare pedigree, guaranteeing its authenticity against modern copies.
Decor & Symbolism :
The vase is richly decorated with Famille Rose enamels with a traditional scene of "Ladies of the Court and children" in a garden, symbolizing happiness and prosperity. The back is adorned with a long hand-calligraphed poem, adding a literary and artistic dimension highly prized by collectors. The handles are relief-worked with gold accents.
Certified Provenance (The strong point) :
This vase has exceptional traceability, ideal for an investment :
Belgian History : Under the base there is a deep engraving indicating the name and address of the former owner: "VANDENHAESEVELDE FR., WEITSTR. 4, MAARKEDAL". This old inventory mark proves that the object has been in Europe for decades.
Gallery Expertise : Bears the original labels of the prestigious Galerie Stampaert (Ghent), a guarantee of superior quality.
Seal : Presence of the red antique seal under the base.
Condition & Dimensions :
Condition : Excellent state of conservation. No cracks, no chips, no restorations.
Height : 43 cm
