This antique Chinese vase, likely dating to the late 19th or early 20th century, is defined by its breathtaking Sang-de-Boeuf (oxblood) glaze, a famously difficult monochrome color prized since the Qing Dynasty. The glaze is perfectly smooth and deep, creating a mirror-like finish that transitions from a rich crimson to a darker red around the rim.

The classic, elegant form—with a bulbous shoulder tapering down to a sturdy base—was often reserved for Imperial or high-status decorative objects. Measuring 9 inches wide and 14 inches high, this sculptural piece serves as a powerful focal point for a console or mantel, bringing a sense of ancient prosperity and dramatic elegance to any interior.
