Lotus & Peony Bud Vase

Floral porcelain vase echoing 19th-century tastes for Chinese export ware, this white vase draws upon the symbolic lotus and peony patterns rich in meaning, purity for the lotus and prosperity for the peony. Chinese export porcelain, produced at the great kilns of Jingdezhen and decorated to Western order from the 16th century onwards, occupied a unique position in the history of decorative arts, designs negotiating a complex cultural exchange between Chinese symbolic tradition and European taste. A beautiful gift for any lover of Chinese decorative art.
