This striking vintage cloisonne enamel vase is finely modeled in the form of a double gourd, a traditional symbol of longevity and good fortune. The piece is richly decorated on a turquoise ground with intricate wirework separating enamel cells in shades of red, blue, pink, yellow, and white, featuring scrolling floral and foliate motifs, stylized clouds, and a prominent red circular medallion containing the character "福" (Good Fortune) on each side. The gourd is adorned with dark, patinated bronze appliques depicting vines, leaves, smaller gourds, and a climbing monkey. The undersides bear an embossed, square seal mark containing the characters "乾隆年製" (Made in the Qianlong Period). This piece is a striking example of traditional cloisonne craftsmanship and makes a distinguished decorative accent.
