Antique Chinese Famille Rose Yellow Ground Vase w/ Gilt Phoenix Handles 15”
Magnificent antique Chinese famille rose porcelain vase, richly enameled in vibrant yellow ground with multicolored lotus scrolls, peaches, and bats—symbols of longevity and happiness. The elegant baluster form rises to a scalloped rim and is flanked by a pair of gilt phoenix-form handles, representing rebirth and grace.
Executed in the intricate fencai (famille rose) palette, the design displays superb enamel layering, precise outlines, and a high-gloss glaze typical of late Qing to early Republic period craftsmanship (circa 1890-1920). The vibrant red, turquoise, and cobalt bands accent the base and shoulder with floral borders inspired by imperial porcelain of the Guangxu era.
A museum-worthy centerpiece, ideal for collectors of Chinese export porcelain and decorative art.
