The richness of Chinese art and culture brought to you by {name}


Alexandra Xu

A unique and delightful scholar’s desk set, comprising a fish-shaped brush washer and two colorful lion-form water droppers. The fish washer, symbolizing prosperity and success, is covered with a striking flambé glaze showing rich transitions of crimson, violet, and milky white tones. Inside the body lies an emerald-green glaze pool, resembling rippling water. The base bears a “Qianlong” seal mark. The two famille rose lion water droppers feature vivid colors and charming expressions, harmoniously complementing the fish washer — together forming a set that is both aesthetic and meaningful, ideal for the scholar’s desk.

Water droppers dimension: 8.5*3.2*3.5

Apart from two fine hairlines, the pieces have no other defects or repairs, and the condition does not affect their use or display.

The item will be professionally packed with anti-shock materials and shipped through a reliable courier service.
