(2) Large Chinese Famille Rose Porcelain Vases. Pair of Chinese famille rose porcelain vases with hand painted chrysanthemum decoration in white medallions, green glaze body. Marked on base. With carved wood footed stands.
Chrysanthemums in Chinese porcelain are a timeless decorative motif symbolizing autumn, endurance, and moral integrity. Revered since ancient times and celebrated by poets and scholars, the chrysanthemum is one of the "Four Gentlemen" of Chinese art—alongside plum blossom, orchid, and bamboo—each representing noble virtues. On porcelain, chrysanthemums appear in both underglaze blue-and-white wares and colorful overglaze styles like famille rose, often arranged in elegant garden scenes, scrollwork, or borders. Their depiction ranges from highly stylized to naturalistic, depending on the period and kiln. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, chrysanthemums on porcelain convey layered meanings of longevity, purity, and the quiet strength of resilience, making them especially popular in gifts and scholarly collections.
Size: 11 1/2 x 22 1/2 in.
