Yongzheng Six-Characters Mark
This vase is finely potted of slender ovoid form rising to a waisted neck and a flared mouthrim,with a round body resting on a foot. The vase is brightly enameled around the exterior with three set of peony motif throughout the body,the base inscribed with a six-character reign mark within a double-circle. The decoration on the present vase demonstrates the exceptionally refined and naturalistic painting in underglaze blue typical of the finest wares of the Yongzheng period,colourfully filled over the glaze with red,green,yellow and purple enamels,with the spacious composition allowing the appreciation of the unctuous white glaze.
