Description from the seller
Pair of monumental Chinese floor vases (height 121 cm including the carved wooden supports), finely decorated in the Famille Rose / Canton style with rich figurative reserves of court scenes, floral motifs, birds and gilt relief details with dragons and guardian lions applied to the neck. The base bears an apocryphal red Qianlong-era mark, placing the production within the export manufacture of the 20th century.
Total size: 121x36x36 cm
Height of vase only: 95 cm
The vases are in generally good condition, while showing the usual signs of time and age. Minor surface imperfections may be present, small signs of wear on the painting, patina or losses in the relief details and in the gilded finishes, perfectly compatible with the object's age and manufacturing.
Prospective bidders are invited to study the photographs carefully, as they are an integral part of the description; the work viewed in the images will be the same that will be delivered to your home!
**Given the dimensions, pickup is required; we are about 1 hour from Milan, but we remain available to provide a dedicated national and international shipping quote. Tracked shipping, including secure packaging, any duties and customs taxes, will be charged to the buyer.
