Important Pair of 2 Antique Cloisonné Vases, 50 cm

A Fine Important Pair of 2 Antique Cloisonné Vases

Height 50 cm

A magnificent and highly decorative pair of large antique cloisonné vases, each standing an impressive 50 cm in height, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and richly layered artistry. Their generous proportions, refined shape, and elaborate polychrome enameling mark them as premium examples of late 19th- to early 20th-century cloisonné work.

The vases feature a deep black ground that dramatically enhances the vibrancy of the enamel colors, creating a striking visual contrast. The central panels depict abundant chrysanthemum blooms in red, gold, blue, and white, rendered with exquisite detail and surrounded by delicate foliage in varying shades of green. The floral motifs are accompanied by elegantly enamelled birds in flight, adding movement and poetic balance to the composition.

Surrounding these pictorial scenes are meticulously designed borders in rich jewel tones — turquoise, russet, cobalt, and gold — arranged in geometric and floral patterns. These borders enhance the vases’ architectural harmony and reflect the technical mastery required in cloisonné enamel work of this caliber.

The necks and bases are adorned with beautiful mosaic-style cloisonné patterns, underscoring the complexity and sophistication of the technique. Throughout the surfaces, the fine wirework is clear, precise, and evenly executed — a hallmark of skilled artisanship.

This impressive pair is not only decorative but also rare in this size, condition, and quality. Their presence immediately elevates any interior, making them ideal for collectors of Asian decorative arts, grand interiors, or statement-level design pieces.
