The prominent overhead handle features brilliant liquid-gold detailing and Neoclassical acanthus leaf scrollwork, blending European Rococo style with classic Asian ceramic forms. A beautiful, intentional fine crackle glaze (crazing) runs throughout the piece, giving it an exquisite antiqued depth. • Height: 17 inches • Width: 8 inches • Weight: 8 lbs 5 oz (unpacked) • Markings: Red stamped apocryphal Qianlong Nian Zhi seal mark on base with "Made in China" export stamp (dating to the late 20th Century).
