A pair of large Japanese porcelain baluster shaped vases - first half 20th century, painted with a phoenix, its tail issuing polychrome leaves and diaper reserves on a blue ground, the domed foot with lappet and stylised beast decoration and a similar band of stylised beasts to the neck, the rim with a band of ruyi motifs, iron red three character mark painted to base, 43.5cm high.
* One vase in good condition with no faults. The second vase with a small chip to the rim, and a flake to the enamel to one of the diaper reserves. The inside of the neck has some flaking to the white surface, which appears to have been painted over the underlying glaze, but there is no damage evident to the neck of the vase, so it doesn't appear to be restoration.
