This stunning pair of antique Chinese porcelain vases showcases the deep, luxurious red glaze known as “oxblood” or sang-de-boeuf, a prized finish developed during the Qing Dynasty. Each vase stands 12.5 inches tall and is expertly formed in a classic meiping shape, with a narrow base, broad shoulders, and gently flared neck—traditionally used to hold branches of plum blossoms.

The rich, high-gloss glaze features subtle variations in tone and pooling, characteristic of the complex copper-based firing process used to achieve the signature oxblood color. When viewed in natural light, the surface reveals subtle depth and luster, creating a sense of elegance and restraint. This pair makes a striking decorative statement whether displayed alone or as part of a larger collection.

Ideal for collectors of Chinese ceramics or those drawn to bold, minimalist forms, these vases embody the timeless appeal of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. See less
