Petite Famille Verte Canton Vase, c. 1920
About the Item
Dated to the 1920s during China's Republic Period, this petite vase is decorated in a style known as Canton enamel, so named for the long-standing industry of export enamels based in the port city of Guangzhou, formerly Canton. Formed of copper and hand-applied overglaze enamel, the charming vase is intricately decorated in the pastel palette of famille verte porcelain.
Round cartouches enclose bird-and-flower vignettes on either side of the body, surrounded by botanical scrollwork against a soft green field. The vase's teardrop form is known as a yuhuchunping or pear-shaped vase and is defined by a rounded body, narrow neck, and flared mouth originally used for pouring wine.
