This imposing vintage Chinese vase, crafted in the 20th century, is a fine example of the renowned Sang de Boeuf (also known as oxblood) glaze technique. The piece stands an impressive 97 cm high (38.2 inches) with a diameter of 45 cm (17.7 inches), making it a striking decorative object.
The vase is finished with a rich, deep red glaze that subtly transitions toward lighter tones near the flared rim, creating depth and vibrancy. Typical craquelure is visible on the surface, a characteristic feature of this glazing style that enhances its vintage charm.
There are some small imperfections and signs of wear visible in the photos, consistent with age and use, but overall the condition remains good, preserving its decorative impact.
The Sang de Boeuf glaze is a traditional Chinese high-fired copper red glaze, developed during the Qing dynasty. Its name, meaning “oxblood,” refers to the intense crimson hue achieved by carefully controlling the reduction atmosphere in the kiln. This complex process often results in subtle variations in tone, depth, and surface texture, which are highly prized by collectors.
A remarkable statement piece, this vase embodies both the artistry and technical mastery of Chinese ceramic traditions.
