Pair of Chinese Vases
Chinese vases from the period around 1900 were often made of bronze and decorated with elaborate ornaments and figures. These vases were known for their fine engraving and artistic design.
Bronze was a popular material for vases due to its long tradition in Chinese art. The vases were often adorned using intricate techniques such as engraving, where patterns and motifs were etched into the metal. Typical ornaments included dragons, floral patterns, or mythological figures.
The figures often represented stories or symbols from Chinese mythology and culture. Popular motifs included dragons, which symbolize strength and good fortune in Chinese culture, or cranes, which symbolize longevity and prosperity.
Chinese vases from this period are highly sought after in the art market and can have significant collector’s value. It is important to have the authenticity and condition of such vases verified by an expert, as there are also many reproductions in circulation.
