A PAIR OF LARGE CLOISONNE ENAMEL 'DRAGON' GLOBULAR VASES    清 銅胎掐絲琺瑯海水龍紋天球瓶一對


  • Dimension: Height: 22 1/2 in (57.0 cm)
  • Estimate From: $3500
  • Estimate To: $6500

Possibly Qing Dynasty period. Modelled in the form of globular body rising to a straight cylindrical neck, the body decorated in cloisonné enamels with a pair of red dragons writhing ferociously amidst dense clusters of blue clouds, all above a band of crashing waves encircling the foot, the details accentuated with thin gilt outlines, the base inscribed with reign mark.


此對瓶以精銅為材,圓口、直頸、球腹、圈足。口沿及足脛為銅鎏金工藝,其余通體掐絲填琺瑯釉,以藍白相間釉色飾海浪紋打底,其上用深淺不一的紅釉繪制龍紋,龍身矯健,氣勢磅礴,掐絲精細,釉子填抹均勻。整體器形規整周正,工藝精湛,制作考究,配色稀少,成對保存,實屬不易。
