History
This celadon vase features a classic Chinese design with a slender neck, bulbous body, and distinctive ring handles attached to the sides. The piece is glazed in a pale celadon green, a color achieved through a reduction firing process that has been perfected by Chinese potters over centuries. The style is reminiscent of those produced during the Yuan to Ming dynasties, though this appears to be a more recent reproduction. Celadon glazed vases with ring handles have long been prized for their elegant simplicity and the subtle beauty of their monochrome glaze. These pieces are particularly valued by collectors of Asian ceramics and those interested in Chinese decorative arts. The ring handles not only serve a decorative purpose but also reference ancient bronze vessels, connecting the ceramic tradition to earlier metalworking craftsmanship.
