📜 Description
A fine antique Chinese porcelain vase cover decorated in underglaze blue & white, featuring scrolling lotus motifs. The top is surmounted with a modeled Foo Lion finial. Canton ware of this period was highly prized for export and display, blending both decorative and symbolic appeal.

Collector’s Notes: The Foo Lion (or guardian lion) symbolizes protection, strength, and prosperity. Such covers were often paired with vases or jars, and are today collected as stand-alone decorative objects and study pieces of the Late Qing export tradition. 🔍 Condition
FAIR ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (3/5) – Shallow chip to rim around the edges, surface wear and minor glaze imperfections. Please review the photos carefully for more details.
