Jingdezhen Famille Rose Peach & Pomegranate Tianqiu Vase

Hand-painted peaches and open pomegranates wrap around the white porcelain body of this small Tianqiu vase from Jingdezhen. Rose-pink fruit, orange flowers and green leaves follow fine branches across the rounded body, while the slender neck and more open back leave room for the white glaze.

The decoration uses famille rose, an overglaze enamel technique known for soft, blended colors. Pale yellow shades into pink across the fruit; tiny red seeds and finely outlined leaves give the painting detail that invites a closer look.

At 13.5 cm / 5.31 in high, it fits a cabinet shelf, writing desk or tea-room display. Its compact scale keeps the painted details close enough to enjoy in daily life.

Peaches traditionally express a wish for long life, while the many seeds of the pomegranate evoke the continuation of the family. Presented in a gift box, the vase carries these wishes into a birthday or housewarming gift.
