AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

White and blue porcelain vase.
Reason: 'Double Happiness'
Qianlong Brand
China

Beautiful white and blue porcelain vase with lid, richly decorated with stylized floral motifs and featuring the Chinese symbol of 'Double Happiness' (囍), a traditional emblem associated with prosperity, harmony, and auspicious weddings.
This type of decoration is highly appreciated by collectors and fits perfectly within the tradition of oriental 'ginger jar' vases.
On the back, there is a four-character mark that reads '乾隆年制 – Qianlong nian zhi – Made during the Qianlong period,' a typical mark of an apocryphal piece (meaning it was later used to imitate the style of the era, not directly attributed to the Qing dynasty).
The vessel is therefore a decorative artifact from the 20th century, made in the Qianlong style and perfectly consistent with Chinese export production.
The craftsmanship is clean, balanced, with an intense and bright blue. The decorative pattern is inspired by the imperial porcelains of the Qianlong period (1736–1795), as confirmed by the mark placed at the base, executed in Zhuanshu characters (seal script style).

A piece with a strong aesthetic presence, ideal for enriching modern, classical, ethnic interiors, or Oriental collections.

Perfect as a standalone decorative element or in combination with consoles, sideboards, coffee tables, and high-end environments.
