Pair of Oriental Style Polychrome Enamel Vases

This lot consists of two 'oriental style' vases, likely ceramic or porcelain, exhibiting a rich and intricate polychrome enamel decoration. Both vases feature a similar color palette dominated by blues, oranges, greens, yellows, and browns, with significant gold accents used for outlining and detailing. The vase on the left is broader at the shoulder and tapers towards the base, which flares out slightly. Its primary decoration appears to be a large, elaborately plumed bird, possibly a peacock or phoenix, surrounded by floral motifs. There are also smaller human figures interspersed within the design. The neck and foot of this vase are adorned with geometric patterns, including a wave-like or scale pattern on the rim and intricate scrolled designs at the base. The second vase, on the right, has a more cylindrical body with a flared neck and a prominent base. Its decoration primarily depicts figural scenes, likely of court life or traditional narratives, with multiple human figures in various poses and attire, set against a background of foliage and architectural elements. The neck and base also feature detailed geometric patterns, similar in style to the other vase but with variations in design. Both vases display a glossy finish, indicative of a glazed surface. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as chips or cracks visible in the provided image, and the enamel appears to be largely intact. The overall condition can be described as good to very good. Given the 'oriental style' description, these vases are likely reproductions or inspired by traditional Chinese or Japanese porcelain, possibly from the 20th century. The craftsmanship appears to be of a reasonable standard for decorative pieces, with detailed brushwork and a good application of glaze and enamels. No specific maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the image.
