Item details
This is a blue-and-white and underglaze-red prunus vase with a scrolling lotus design. It has a small mouth, short neck, broad shoulders, rounded body, and a gently tapering lower section, giving it a balanced, full-bodied form. Blue-and-white scrolling foliage covers the body, interspersed with underglaze-red floral motifs; bands of scrollwork and geometric patterns accent the shoulder and lower body, with blue and reddish brown creating clear visual contrast. The painting is finely executed, the dense decoration is orderly, and the glaze has a soft sheen. The vase is in good overall condition. (Height: 32 cm; width: 18 cm)
