Circa 1875-1890 Chinese Export Cabbage Leaf Vase with a very unusual opening measuring 16 1/4" in height. The top opening is 3". The form at this top opening refers to this as a garlic vase.

Probably made for the Islamic Market and was exported there more than to the Western World.

The black entwining parts designate that it was made for export to the Boston Market. Good Quality and in Excellent Condition with no chips, cracks or any other damage and No Restoration.
