Qianlong Famille Rose Nine-Peach Tianqiu Vase
▪ BESPOKE ARCHIVAL PACKAGING WITH EVERY ACQUISITION
A hand-painted Jingdezhen famille rose vase for console tables, cabinets, entryways, and collector interiors.
A contemporary Jingdezhen display piece inspired by Qing Qianlong nine-peach Tianqiu vase forms. It is made as a modern decorative object, not presented as an antique. The vase keeps the rounded celestial-sphere body and tall neck associated with the form, while leaving open areas of white porcelain between the painted branches.
The body is made from high-white Jingdezhen kaolin porcelain. Across the glazed surface, famille rose overglaze enamels depict ripe pink peaches, red bats, turquoise-green leaves, flowering branches, and dark textured trunks. The decoration is hand-painted, with visible linework around the leaves and soft tonal shifts across the peach skins.
Nine peaches are traditionally associated with longevity. Red bats are a familiar symbol of blessing and good fortune in Chinese decorative art. Here, the motifs are arranged with restraint, giving the composition a clear rhythm rather than a densely filled surface. The smaller size suits a cabinet or shelf, while the larger size is better placed on a console, entry table, or open display surface.
