A large cloisonné enamel vase with beast-form handles, finely crafted in the late Qing dynasty style. The body features a classic baluster shape with flared mouth and foot, and is richly adorned with scrolling lotus, archaistic taotie motifs, and floral panels in vibrant enamels including turquoise, deep red, blue, and yellow. The neck and foot are decorated with detailed key-fret and geometric patterns, while the central band is encircled with stylized phoenixes or dragon-like creatures amidst foliage scrolls. The twin handles are cast in the form of stylized mythological beasts, enhancing the overall imperial aesthetic. A striking example of Chinese metalwork and enamel craftsmanship, this vase would serve as a centerpiece in any serious Asian antiques collection.
