Bold graphic patterns of mountains, clouds, cranes, and traditional village scenes give this duo unmistakable vintage Chinoiserie drama — perfect for maximalist interiors, Hollywood Regency, or eclectic modern spaces.


1. **Large Statement Vase**
- Height: 14 inches
- Width at widest: ~8 inches
- Classic baluster form with flared rim
- Crisp cobalt-black underglaze decoration on bright white porcelain
- Marked on base with red Dechang seal (authentic 1960s–1980s period)

2. **Matching Pitcher**
- Height: 10 inches
- Same exquisite black-and-white mountain/crane motif
- Elegant looped handle and spout — fully functional or purely decorative


Excellent vintage condition — no chips, cracks, hairlines, or repairs. Colors remain vivid with only the lightest signs of age (minor shelf wear on bases). These pieces display beautifully and have clearly been cherished.

This set makes an instant focal point on a console, mantel, bookshelf, or dining table. Fill the vase with cherry blossoms or tall pampas, use the pitcher for fresh flowers or as a wine/water server — or simply let them stand empty as sculptural art.

Highly sought-after by collectors of vintage Chinese export porcelain and black-and-white decor lovers alike. Sets this tall and perfectly matched rarely appear together.
