### Title
Two Chinese Canton Famille Rose Porcelain Vases – Qing Dynasty – Figures, Birds and Flowers

### Description

A beautiful group of two antique Chinese Canton famille rose porcelain vases dating to the Qing Dynasty, 19th century.

Both vases are richly decorated with colourful famille rose enamels and traditional Cantonese gilded ornamentation.

Each vase features four decorative panels, two depicting Chinese figures in traditional interior and garden scenes, and two decorated with birds and flowers.

The panels are surrounded by elaborate floral borders, scrolling foliage and gilt details, characteristic of Qing Dynasty Canton famille rose porcelain.

The smaller vase has an elegant rectangular body, a flared rim, a square base and two decorative gilt handles.

The larger vase features a rounded, elongated body, a flared neck and ornamental handles on the shoulders.

Although different in shape and size, the two vases share a similar decorative style, with finely painted figures, colourful floral designs and traditional gilded decoration.

An attractive group of Qing Dynasty Canton famille rose porcelain, offering an interesting addition to a collection of antique Chinese export ceramics.
