Sapphire Blue Glazed Hexagonal Vase with Scrolling Lotus Decoration - Porcelain - China - 20th century

## Description

An elegant hexagonal vase of stately proportions — flared hexagonal mouth, gently tapering neck, broad faceted body, and sturdy hexagonal foot ring. The entire exterior is enveloped in a rich, deep sapphire-blue glaze of lustrous, velvety finish, through which delicate incised scrolling lotus and foliage emerge in subtle, graceful relief. Each of the six panels features a central peony bloom encircled by curling stems and leaves; the neck and foot are neatly bordered with matching foliate and ruyi motifs, creating a harmonious, continuous design that flows seamlessly around the vessel. The glaze exhibits a fine, even texture with subtle variations in tone that enhance the depth and refinement of the piece.
