A vintage hand-painted porcelain vase from Jingdezhen — the Jiangxi kiln city long understood as China's porcelain capital. The form is a poetry bottle: tall, slender-shouldered, intended as both vessel and ground for inscription.

One face carries a finely painted famille rose landscape — mountains, scattered trees, the soft enamel palette that has defined Jingdezhen ware for centuries. The reverse is given to calligraphy: a black-ink poem rendered in traditional script, accompanied by the artist's red signature seals. The translation reads, approximately: "I am in the midst, smilingly welcoming the verdant mountain view; when will I be back in my home mountain?"

The base bears a manufacturing mark consistent with Jingdezhen export production, likely dating to the mid-20th century. A piece that sits as comfortably alone on a bookshelf as it does grouped with other ceramics.

  • Dimensions: 8" H x 4.5" diameter at widest
  • Material: Hand-painted Jingdezhen porcelain, famille rose enamel
  • Era: Likely mid-20th century, China
  • Marks: Export mark to base, artist signature seals
