Description from the seller

Superb pair of lamp bases formed from crackled porcelain vases from Nanking, Qing Dynasty, circa 1890.

The pieces exhibit the typical forms of this production, one in a baluster vase with relief handles depicting lions or Buddhist chimeras, and the other in a covered jar.

Rich samurai decoration.

They are in good condition with only minor wear.
