Item Description This matching pair of cylindrical arrow vases originates from the late Qing Dynasty. They feature detailed hand-painted blue-and-white imagery of songbirds nestled amid blossoming foliage and fruiting branches; the classic floral-and-avian motif traditionally symbolizes vitality, joyful omens and abundant harvests. Both pieces showcase textured dark decorative borders at their rims and bases, and the glaze exhibits natural aged crazing across the porcelain body. Approximate dimensions: Height 26.5 cm Condition: Both vases have incurred damages historically and underwent adhesive restoration, with the degree of wear and repair differing between the two items.
