This is a matched pair of elegant vintage porcelain lidded jars, featuring a classic, rounded "lotus seed" form. Each jar is beautifully hand-painted in the vibrant Famille Rose palette against a pristine white ground. The main body is decorated with a lush botanical scene featuring large, blooming chrysanthemums in shades of deep pink and purple, intertwined with green foliage, stems, and delicate buds. Stylized dark rocks ground the floral arrangement. The upper shoulder is encircled by a band of colorful, scalloped lappets, and the base is finished with a border of upright, green and pink lotus petals. The flat, domed lids are decorated with a matching floral spray and butterfly, and feature a distinctive geometric diamond-patterned band around the rim.
Dimensions (Per Jar):
Height: 13 cm (approx. 5.12 inches)
Belly Diameter: 15 cm (approx. 5.91 inches)
Maker's Mark:
The underside of each jar bears a four-character seal mark in underglaze blue, enclosed within a double square. The characters read "雍正御製" (Yongzheng Yu Zhi), which translates to "Made by Imperial Order of the Yongzheng Period." Note: As is common with vintage decorative pieces, this mark is likely apocryphal and serves as a tribute to the classic imperial style.
