Crafted in China circa 1950, each tall vase features a gracefully flared rim, a slender neck, and a tapering body raised on a fitted carved wood platform base.

The white porcelain bodies are richly decorated with hand-painted famille rose scenes depicting traditionally dressed figures in garden and architectural settings. Delicate floral motifs, stylized borders, and geometric bands frame the figural reserves, while a soft palette of pale blue, celadon green, rose, yellow, and coral gives the vessels a fresh and decorative presence. The complementary compositions and matching forms make the vases especially well suited for symmetrical display on a mantel, buffet, or console table.

The pair is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with beautifully preserved hand-painted decoration and attractive pastel coloring throughout.

Dimensions: 7" Diameter x 18" H, including bases. See less
