DESCRIPTION

A Chinese porcelain vase of elongated form with a flared neck and applied beast mask handles, dating to the early 20th century. The decoration is executed in the Qianjiang manner with delicately painted birds among flowering branches and pale green foliage. The reverse carries a calligraphic inscription with signature, while additional characters appear around the neck. Restrained enamels, fine brushwork and the combination of painting and calligraphy give the vase the character of Chinese literati-inspired porcelain.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Qianjiang style porcelain developed in the later Qing period and continued into the early 20th century, combining traditional Chinese painting, calligraphy and poetry on porcelain. Such wares are particularly collected for their individual brushwork, inscriptions and close relationship to literati painting traditions.
