Antique or Vintage 9 Chinese Cloisonne Pair Vases Imperial Dragon Flaming Pearl
This pair of early 20th century cloisonne vases is not from the Grandma Tran collection. I remember my mom spending a lot of time hunting them down and agreeing on a price from the person she bought them from! They are very similar in design with an Imperial five clawed dragon and the flaming pearl on each vase. The two dragons are opposite each other so they can face towards each other or away from each other. There is extensive damage/repair to both vases. The vase pictured on the right in the main picture has three areas of significant repair. Two are on the sides and one is on the base. The vase on the left has two areas, one on the side and one on the base. The color matching is pretty good. In place of the wires, gold paint has replaced the wires in the repaired spots. Please study the photos carefully. I can send more upon request. There is also an un-repaired small ding on one of the vases. The upper and lower rims of the vase on the left in the main picture are bent. In spite of all these flaws, these vases make a strong impression and appear to be much older than they actually are. Based upon what I have learned they are likely from the early part of the 20th century, made in China for export. The cylindrical shape of the vase body is different from most of the curved vases for sale. Thank you for supporting Catholic Charities!
