Magnificent Impressively Large and decorative Chinese Ginger vase with Lid and stand. Superb decoration in underglaze cobalt blue. Freely painted Cartouches of scholars objects surrounded by Prunus blossom on a dark crackle blue glaze. There are elements especially the unglazed top rim which would suggest an earlier date but I feel the base and slope inwards of the rim is more typical of a later piece rather than earlier piece and so I have revised this listing and price accordingly. I have tried to capture the true colour of the vase which is a deep rich Cobalt blue but The photos do not really show the true colour. The stand is contemporary to the vase but well matched. Either way a really stunning vase for decoration and in excellent condition. Height 26cm (10″) (with stand) Diameter 215cm (8.5″). Will be sent very well packed. Part of the Conception Classique range of Ming and Qing Dynasty fine Chinese Antiques.
