About this item
This Chinese brass vase brings a powerful, sculptural presence to a shelf or tabletop with its high‑relief dragons wrapped around the neck and body.
Made in the early 20th century, this cast‑brass piece features deeply modeled dragons chasing the flaming pearl, a motif in Chinese art symbolizing prosperity, good fortune, and the pursuit of wisdom. The heavy brass body is etched with a textured ground that enhances the dimensionality of the dragons, while the naturally aged patina adds depth and character. Styled as a decorative urn or small planter, it offers a striking blend of mythology, craftsmanship, and early‑century artistry.
Dimensions are 9" tall and 4.5" in diameter at the widest point.
