Large hexagonal pot with lid, Chinese porcelain, 19th century

Descriptio Porcelain glazed with polychrome green enamels. Measures 36 x 14 cm. Large hexagonal pot, each panel decorated with a refined lakeside landscape composed of lotus flowers, stylized foliage, and waterfowl, enlivened by ducks and small birds arranged in dynamic poses that lend rhythm and visual depth. The composition is organized by flowering branches that structure the space and guide the eye along the perimeter of the piece. The color palette, dominated by greens, reds, ochres, and blues, is applied with precision and freshness, highlighting the technical quality of the glaze. The lid, crowned by a button-shaped finial, repeats the floral motifs and reinforces the ornamental unity of the piece. The glaze has a luminous luster, with slight wear and minor chipping at the corners consistent with its use. The perforated base indicates its later adaptation to European tastes as a lamp. Stylistically, the piece is part of the decorative tradition of the Qing dynasty, made in the 19th century following models inspired by the Kangxi period, maintaining the elegance and balance characteristic of classic Chinese porcelain.
