This Chinese black lacquered bottleneck vase is one of two similar vases and dates to approximately 1910. It features a slender neck and a wider body, characteristic of traditional vase design. The surface is finished in a black lacquer, typical of Chinese craftsmanship from this period. The vase is made from we believe a type of Wood, possibly Hongmu Wood and showcases intricate detailing that reflects the artistry of early 20th-century Chinese decorative arts. Incorporated in the hand painted design are a pair of Angel Fish amongst foliage, fixed sitting on a traditional carved hardwood stand.
