Qianlong Famille Rose Nine-Peach Tianqiu Vase
A faithful 1:1 reproduction of an 18th-century Qianlong Tianqiu vase, recreated for the contemporary interior. Originally housed in the Palace Museum, the celestial sphere silhouette represents a defining peak in Chinese ceramic history. This piece captures the physical presence of the historical artifact, serving as a strong anchor in a modern space.
Handcrafted in Jingdezhen, the vase is shaped from premium high-white Kaolin clay through 72 traditional processes. It serves as the surface for delicate Famille Rose (粉彩) overglaze, with motifs hand-painted and fired between 700°C and 900°C. This traditional method yields the soft, luminous colors characteristic of 18th-century porcelain.
The surface weaves a narrative of subtle auspiciousness. The nine peaches and five red bats carry the familiar meanings of longevity and blessings descending upon the home, framed by blooming Chinese roses signifying eternal spring. As an Archive Edition piece, it brings historical depth and quiet luxury to the collector's display.
