This exquisite early 19th-century porcelain vase has a gently tapered body and a dramatic flared lip, flanked by two molded scroll handles. Painted with expressive brushwork, the vase is festooned with peony blossoms, emblems of spring time and feminine beauty. Tucked within the flowers is a graceful pheasant resting on a scholars' rock, a regal motif in Chinese art that further's the vase's blessings of beauty and good fortune.
