Description

A Macau porcelain vase of baluster form with a flared rim and tapering body. The exterior is decorated in a palette of iron-red enamel and underglaze blue over a white ground. The central composition features two scaly dragons amidst stylized flames and clouds. The dragons are primarily rendered in iron-red enamel with varying intensity to suggest shading, while underglaze blue defines the scales, spines, and eyes. Stylized cloud and wave borders encircle the shoulder, neck, and base in underglaze blue. The underside of the base features an orange printed square seal mark containing stylized seal script characters. To the left of this seal is an orange printed inscription reading Macau in Chinese characters followed by a character for made.
