"Pair Of Inlaid Bronze Vases – Indochina, 19th Century"
Elegant pair of patinated bronze baluster vases, decorated with traditional scenes inlaid with colored metals. The decoration highlights stylized figures, pavilions and landscapes, executed with great refinement, offering a true visual narrative around each vase. The side handles, in the shape of elephant heads holding a movable ring, add a symbolic and decorative dimension, testifying to the Asian aesthetic specific to the period. The warm and nuanced patina underlines the finesse of the inlays and gives the whole a rare and authentic presence. These vases are distinguished not only by their technical quality (bronze work and finesse of the polychrome inlays), but also by their strong decorative character, perfect for enriching a collection of Asian art or bringing a touch of refined exoticism to a contemporary interior. Height: 22 cm Condition: very good, with some wear from use and slight traces of time. Old patina preserved.
