Pair of 乾隆 Qianlong Blue Celadon Ribbed Begonia Vases
|
An extremely rare pair of Imperial blue-celadon begonia shaped vases
(the shape sometimes also referred to as olive shaped), the body
ribbed between bowstring borders framed by a wide undecorated band at the base
and top. The vases covered in a fine blue hued celadon glaze and only the
foot is exposed revealing the fine white paste. The base is deeply inset
and the zhuanshu seal mark and period of the Qianlong Emperor is centered
beneath the glaze in underglaze blue. |
