EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases one of a pair of exquisite Louis XV ewers, crafted from porcelain during the years 1662-1722. The delicate mounts, created between 1745-49, beautifully complement the ornate design of these Chinese School masterpieces from the Qing Dynasty - Kangxi Period. Measuring at an impressive 57x33x33 cm, these baluster vases are adorned with intricate motifs depicting deer, cranes, trees, and foliage in underglaze blue and iron red on a pale celadon background. The necks feature scrolled acanthus designs that gracefully culminate in lips cast with coral and shell patterns. To one side of each vase's neck stands a double-scrolled foliate handle surmounted by a majestic winged dragon. Resting upon scrolling foliate bases, these ewers emanate opulence and refinement. Each base mount bears the prestigious C-couronné stamp as a testament to their authenticity. Although one neck has been restored over time and one vase lacks its circlet within the rim mount, their allure remains undiminished. This remarkable photograph captures every intricate detail of these magnificent pieces from a private collection. Its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship transport viewers into an era marked by extraordinary decorative artistry. A true treasure for any connoisseur or lover of fine ceramics alike.
