This pair of cloisonné vases exemplifies fine craftsmanship and elegant form, featuring a black enamel background that highlights the vivid blue bat motifs. In Chinese culture, bats symbolize good fortune, and together with the word "vase" (ping, 平), they convey the auspicious wish for "happiness and peace." The evenly distributed bat designs create a harmonious balance between solemnity and liveliness. The gilt bronze rims and bases add to the overall splendor. These vases are not only exquisite decorative pieces but also valuable cloisonné artworks with rich cultural symbolism.
