Dealer notes
This magnificent vessel is a study in color and technical mastery, a flame captured in porcelain. This antique Chinese vase, likely dating to the late 19th or early 20th century, is defined by its breathtaking Sang-de-Boeuf (oxblood) glaze, a famously difficult monochrome color prized since the Qing Dynasty. The glaze is perfectly smooth and deep, creating a mirror-like finish that transitions from a rich crimson to a darker red around the rim. The classic, elegant form—with a bulbous shoulder tapering down to a sturdy base—was often reserved for Imperial or high-status decorative objects. Measuring 9 inches wide and 14 inches high, this sculptural piece serves as a powerful focal point for a console or mantel, bringing a sense of ancient prosperity and dramatic elegance to any interior. *Era: Vintage *Material: Porcelain *Size: 8“(D) x 14“(H) Top 1.25 *Color: Red *Condition: Wear consistent with age & use, blemishes and imperfections will be present.
