Celadon Dragon Vase

$299.00

This is a carved Longquan celadon bottle vase, a handmade Chinese accent decorative vase made of celadon ceramic with an exquisite handmade celadon green dragon. The dragon is a symbol of power, strength and good luck in Chinese culture, and it adds a touch of elegance and charm to this beautiful vase.

Celadon is a type of pottery with a jade green glaze that has a subtle crackled texture. Celadon originated in China and was highly prized by emperors and nobles for its refined beauty and quality. The Longquan kiln in Zhejiang province is one of the most famous kilns for producing celadon wares, and this vase is a fine example of its craftsmanship.

This vase has a graceful shape with a round body and a slender neck. It has two dragon-fish, feiyu, handles on the sides that are rare and distinctive. The dragon-fish is a mythical creature that can transform into a dragon when it leaps over the Dragon Gate. It represents success and achievement in Chinese culture. The vase has a smooth and glossy surface that reflects the light and shows off the delicate carving of the dragon.
