Description from the seller

Chinese famille noire vase with ladies and cranes.

Large Chinese porcelain baluster vase with a flaring trumpet mouth. The black ground is decorated all around with turquoise scroll motifs, stylized lotus flowers, and multicolored ornamental borders.

On the body are two mirrored depictions of four ladies in finely decorated robes beside a pavilion. On the table lie an open book and writing implements, beside a small vase with flowers. In the background stand red-crowned cranes by rocks and waves, a traditional Chinese motif for a long life.

Smaller cartouches show waterfowl, a river landscape, and a still life with fruit and valuables. The shoulder band contains geometric patterns and books tied with ribbons, a symbol of learning.

On the bottom is the red apocryphal six-character mark 大清康熙年製, Da Qing Kangxi Nian Zhi, which refers to the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

The vase is 44 cm high and has a diameter of 20 cm. The diameter of the mouth rim is 16.5 cm. The vase weighs 3151 grams.

The vase will be carefully packaged and insured for shipping.
