Description:
A Chinese Ming Dynasty style blue and white porcelain ground vase, the vase is shaped well in the form of gourds rising from the body to the neck, overall in blue and white glaze suffused with designs. One group of the character conveys stories and depicted in different poses, and the excellent flower designs and landscapes go well with roles. The other group is decorated with a cloudy pattern. This vase body is thick and smooth and beautiful glazed. The gourd pronunciation in Chinese is 'Fu Lu' the same as fortune and wealth. This bottle is typical in the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period. Both the shape and the depiction of the characters in a blue-and-white glaze made it a rare porcelain Art treasure, height 38.5 cm, depth 18 cm
