A CHINESE GILT CLOISONNE TWIN HANDLED LOTUS VASE

拍品描述

Measuring 50 cm tall and 33 cm wide, this substantial bulbous vase is wrought from gilded copper with elaborate cloisonn? filigree detailing. A rich turquoise enamel ground is densely decorated with scrolling interlocking lotus blossoms in vivid hues of scarlet, golden yellow, crisp white and deep navy. Gilded beast-head mounts fitted with hanging ring pulls form the dual side handles, while the domed matching lid carries two ring loops alongside gilded trim that frames the rim, horizontal body bands and stepped foot. Precisely laid metal wires outline every curling foliage sprig and layered petal. Boasting striking scale and opulent ornamentation, this exceptional vessel stands as a marquee piece for serious collections of premium Chinese cloisonn? furnishings.
