Vividly Noteworthy Chinese Sang-de-Boeuf Flambé Vase in Oxblood and Blue

$325.00

There is nothing timid about this large Chinese porcelain vase. It features the beautiful and vivid sang-de-boeuf (oxblood) flambé glaze, where rich blues and soft purples around the neck flow into deep red tones across the body.

This vibrant glaze is created using copper oxides and high-temperature kiln firing in a carefully controlled atmosphere. The colours develop and move naturally during the firing process, meaning no two pieces ever the same. It is this unpredictability that gives sang-de-boeuf ware its depth, variation and noteworthy appeal.

Substantial in both scale and weight, this piece stands 34cm high and has a reassuring solidity that reflects its quality and presence. What an incredible statement piece.
