Pair of Kangxi Period Blue-and-White 'Grapes & Floral'...

Description A well-matched pair of porcelain vases of elegant lotus-bud form, finely potted with rounded ovoid bodies tapering to a slender neck and subtly flared mouth, rising from a clearly defined, neatly cut foot. Each vase is freely and vigorously painted in rich, saturated cobalt-blue with textured diapered ground panels enclosing luxuriant grapevines heavy with fruit and curling tendrils — the composition balanced and dynamic, with distinctive foliage and fruit rendered with characteristic Kangxi-period brushwork. The neck and foot are neatly framed with leaf and petal borders in harmonious proportion. A handsome, symmetrical pair displaying the vitality and technical refinement of Kangxi blue-and-white. Dimensions: Height of each: approx. 15 cm Condition First vase: minor frit / tiny nick to the body near the foot; Second vase: faint, shallow glaze hairline to the rim； Both otherwise structurally sound; show normal age-related wear and glaze patina consistent with the period; Shipping Ships to the United States; no insurance included — buyer assumes all shipping-related risks.
