Chinese Guangxu period Kangxi revival blue and white dragon bottle porcelain vase
Chinese porcelain bottle vase painted in underglaze blue with two dragons chasing a flaming pearl amidst clouds and flames. Crafted in the Kangxi style (1654 - 1722) but produced during the Guangxu period (1875-1908), this vase is part of the Qing dynasty's revival of earlier designs. It features a globular body that transitions into a tall, slender neck. The dynamic five-clawed dragons, a traditional symbol of imperial power, are vividly depicted, swirling among clouds as they pursue the flaming pearl.
The detailed decoration in vibrant underglaze blue evokes the imperial aesthetic of the Kangxi era, while the craftsmanship showcases the quality associated with the Guangxu period.
