Two Blue And White Bottle Vases — KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)
Two Blue And White Bottle Vases

KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)

These porcelain bottle vases from the Kangxi period exemplify the refined ceramic production that flourished under the Qing Dynasty, characterized by their distinctive blue and white underglaze decoration. The Kangxi reign marked a golden age for Chinese porcelain, when kilns at Jingdezhen achieved exceptional technical mastery in form, glaze quality, and painted ornamentation. The bottle vase shape, with its narrow neck and bulbous body, became a canonical form during this period and was highly prized both in the imperial court and among collectors throughout Asia and Europe.
