A RARE COPPER-RED-DECORATED 'DRAGON’ VASE

KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)

The slightly tapered body is decorated on the exterior with nine writhing four-clawed dragons amidst flames, their eyes highlighted in underglaze blue. The dragons are arranged in pairs confronting one another, with the exception of a smaller one on the short trumpet neck chasing a flaming pearl. The base is inscribed with an apocryphal six-character Chenghua mark in underglaze blue.

17 in. (43.1 cm.) high
