Zentner Collection: Antique Japanese Tansu, Asian Works of Art
Famille rose was introduced during the reign of Kangxi (1654–1722), possibly around 1720. It used mainly pinks or purple and remained popular throughout the 18th and the 19th centuries. This Famille rose enamel vase dates from the 19th century and has a greater range of color and tones than was previously possible on early pieces, enabling the depiction of more complex images, including flowers, fu-dog, mythical creatures, insects, and assorted scholar objects. The enamel is all original showing minor ware. The vase is charming, whimsical and vibrant. The original bottom was drilled to make a western lamp which has been filled. 19th Century Dimensions: 18 1/4" High X 10" Wide
