This is a wonderful pair of mid 19th Century BLUE AND WHITE Chinese covered jars. The cobalt painting of dragons (four toed) is exceptionally fine, with a lot attention to detail such as the dragons heads and scales. The jars are topped with foo dog finials. although the jars are signed KANGXI, they are probably early 19th century.
Both jars have had excellent, professionally done restoration quite some time ago. It is hard to see any of the restorative work without close scrutiny. This is in fact one of the best restorations (Museum Caliber) I have seen, the work was done in Europe. See below for details. Here is a chance to own a magnificent pair of vases for a fraction of their value.
Dimensions: Height With Lids 9"(22.50cm)
Diameter 3 1/2"(9cm)
Bases 3"(7.50cm)
Condition: Museum Restoration
One Jar appears to have had a hairline on central body. The other jar has had damage to mid body, a large chip restored. Both repairs are covered with white slip, repainted skillfully with cobalt paint, reglazed. I have viewed these repairs under 10 power magnification. Would love to hire the restorer.
