Pair of Vases
Two tall porcelain vases with globular bodies and slender necks, shown as a matched pair. Pink-red peaches hang among green leaves, white flowers and dark branches in soft famille rose enamels against a pale ground. The composition wraps around each vessel, with fruit clustered near the shoulders and blossoms rising toward the necks.
Look closer: Small pink blossoms on a low branch near the lower left of the left vase.
