Standing an impressive 42 inches tall, the vases are richly decorated with scrolling lotus blossoms, flowering vines, and traditional geometric border motifs rendered in a refined soft salmon/rust on-white palette.

The understated colorway gives these vases a lighter, more contemporary feel than the deep iron-red examples often encountered, allowing them to complement traditional, transitional, Hollywood Regency, and modern interiors alike. Their generous scale makes them ideal statement pieces flanking an entryway, fireplace, console, or large cabinet.

This pair was acquired directly from the Prop Services West (PSW) inventory reduction auction in Los Angeles. For decades, PSW supplied furniture and decorative accessories to the entertainment industry, making these part of the inventory of one of Hollywood's best-known set decoration houses. While not attributed to a specific production, they carry an appealing Hollywood design provenance.

Both vases retain decorative Chinese reign-style marks on the underside. See the digitally staged photo mock-up of this pair in an elegant room for inspiration.
