(pair) Large Chinese famille rose enameled porcelain vases, each having flared rim over dual scrolled handles, reserves depicting various birds in verdant floral setting with calligraphic script, ground of intricate scrollwork interspersed with rose medallions, four-character mark underfoot, rising on wood stands, vase: approx 22.75"h, 9.5"diam, overall on stand: approx 24.75"h, 38lbs total 

06.25.24: In my opinion regarding LOT 4322: I note that both vases are presently intact and structurally sturdy, with the handles appearing secure to the neck, I do not currently observe fractures to either vessel, UV light examination reveals a small chip to the interior of the mouth of one vase just below the rim that has been concealed with light overpainting, examination does not reveal evidence of further restorations, and I do not observe further chipping to either vessel, there is minute wear to the enamel commensurate with age, and both would benefit from a gentle cleaning to resolve light dirt build-up
