AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description
A boldly potted zhadou of elegant flared form, with wide everted rim tapering inward to a waisted neck, then swelling into a rounded body above a subtly flared foot. The neck is richly decorated with upright plantain leaves in deep green against a vibrant yellow ground. The bulbous body features a dynamically writhing five-clawed dragon in flight amidst swirling clouds and flaming pearls — all rendered in green enamel with finely detailed scales, claws and facial features, sharply contrasting the bright yellow ground. The base is fitted with an ornate gilded bronze stand of classical fluted design, securely mounted. A striking and imposing piece with commanding presence.
Dimensions:
Total height (including bronze stand): approx. 17.7 cm
Condition
Visible porcelain areas show only normal age-related surface wear and enamel rubbing — no chips, cracks, hairlines or restoration observable;
Interior base clearly visible and confirmed free of cracks, damage or repairs;
Mounting / adhesive interface beneath bronze stand is inaccessible and condition cannot be verified.
