Description:
Presenting a magnificent and exceptionally heavy (18 lbs for the pair) set of monumental vintage Chinese cloisonné enamel vases. These large vases feature a classic, elegant silhouette with a flaring trumpet neck and a bulbous, elongated body.
The vases are deeply decorated in a striking pale turquoise (light green/blue) ground, densely filled with intricate, hand-wired scrolling vines and floral motifs in reds, purples, and yellows. The necks feature large, stylized red Shou (Longevity) characters surrounded by delicate blooms. The main body features spectacular, prominent yellow-ground cartouches enclosing dynamic, multi-colored dragons in purple and red, chasing flaming pearls amidst blue ruyi clouds. The shoulders, bases, and rims are accented with blue, red, and gold geometric bands.
The bases are fully enameled with turquoise and floral patterns, bearing cast bronze square seals reading "乾隆年制" (Made in the Qianlong Period), a traditional reverence mark.
Condition: Excellent condition. The enamel is vibrant and intact with no visible missing pieces, chips, or cracks. The bronze rims and bases show a natural, aged patina. Please refer to all photos for exact condition.
