Presenting a magnificent and highly decorative vintage Chinese enamel vase, crafted in the classic "Garlic Mouth" (Suan Tou Ping) silhouette. This elegant piece is made of copper and features a spectacular, dense floral design.

The vase is covered in a brilliant imperial yellow ground, elaborately decorated with hand-painted scrolling floral vines and large, vibrant lotus and passionflowers in shades of red, purple, green, and blue. The neck features beautiful, intricately patterned bands with a deep blue ground and classic ruyi cloud borders.

The base is finished in a rich, bright turquoise (Robin's Egg) enamel. The mouth rim and base foot feature polished bronze bands, adding to the piece's regal aesthetic.

Condition: Excellent condition. The enamel is vibrant and glossy with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs. The painted details are crisp and beautifully preserved. Minor surface wear consistent with age and display. Please refer to all photos for exact condition.
