Imperial Carved Celadon Vase, Kangxi Mark & Period



We are offering a very fine and beautiful Qing Imperial vase with elaborate carving under beautiful celadon glaze from Kangxi Period (1662-1722 A.D.). The small vase has an ovoid shoulder extending from a constricted splayed lower section and a flared mouth rim on top of a short neck. The exterior is carved with an elaborate continuous ruyi band below the mouth rim. Four roundels of archaic dragon carved in shallow relief among a wide band of intaglio key frets adorns the ovoid section. A series of connected vertical vine motif wraps around the slightly splayed foot. The entire surface is covered with an even light sea green celadon glaze typical of early Qing Imperial kiln celadon wares. The base inside the shallow foot ring is glazed white and is inscribed with a six-character Kangxi Imperial mark in under glaze cobalt blue of light color. Except for a few very minute iron spots, this exquisite Qing Imperial monochrome vase with carved decoration is in excellent condition.
