The handles and base of each vase are in chased ormolu, with elegant scrolled acanthus leaf decoration for the handles.This pair of large, highly decorative vases will complete a classic ensemble on a chest of drawers or mantelpiece.Sang Boeuf (also spelled “Sanggam” or “Sang Bao”) is a characteristic red hue that was commonly used in 19th-century Chinese ceramics, particularly vases. The name “Sang Boeuf” is derived from the French word for “blood” and refers to the deep, rich color of the glaze. Sang Boeuf color is achieved by using a specific type of iron-rich clay and a high-temperature firing process. The resulting glaze has a deep, lustrous sheen.
