Description
This early 20th-century Chinese blue and white baluster lidded vase showcases the elegance of traditional Chinese porcelain artistry. Decorated with the "shuangxi" symbol, which represents double happiness, the vase is often linked to themes of joy and good fortune, particularly in marriage. The delicate cobalt blue designs stand out against the smooth white background, highlighting a blend of symbolic and floral motifs that reflect the craftsmanship of the era.
The vase features a classic baluster form, topped with a perfectly fitted lid, adding to its balanced and graceful aesthetic. The hand-painted designs are intricate and detailed, with the central "shuangxi" symbol surrounded by scrolling florals and decorative borders, making it a stunning piece of both visual and cultural significance.
A piece like this is highly desirable to collectors of Chinese ceramics and fine art. With its timeless design and meaningful symbolism, this vase not only holds historical value but also serves as a striking decorative element that can enrich any home or collection.
