康熙 Kangxi Underglazed Blue and Red Garlic-Headed Vase
An extremely rare slender bottle form vase atop a splayed foot, the tall
neck rising to a garlic shaped head with a collared mouth opening. The
head adorned with ruyi heads and pendant jewels, the phoenix medallions
surrounded by opposing leafy pomegranate clusters, the foot encircled by a geometric
band above concentric blue lines, the whole
in underglaze blue and red over a fine porcelain body. The flat base is
unglazed and exhibits burn marks from the firing process. |
