Very Large Early 19th Qajar Ceramic Vase, Persia, Floral Decoration & Nice Enamel
Superb and important Iranian ceramic vase from Qajar period (1794-1925), Iran early 19th century.
These ceramics were used as fat pots, which explains the gray shades that can be included in white to cracked ivory enamel, and which ultimately contribute to the aesthetics of the vase.
The piece, on a discreet heel, is slightly flared as it widens towards the top.
Very sober decoration on the belly of vertical bands in ash blue delimited by fine black drawing, which frame plant and floral motifs repeated identically around the edge of the vase. The neck is highlighted with a different floral register.
The glaze in particular is very successful, and stands out like a real layer of very shiny glass covering the largely cracked enamel. We can see in particular the thickness and transparency of the material on the lower part of the vase with drops that seem ready to fall.
Very good condition; Please note, however, a slight lack at the heel which doesn't hinder the perfect stability of the vase and is not visible when the vase is stand.
Dimensions:
28.5 cm diameter and 28.5 cm high
