A Massive Chinese Export Porcelain Famille Rose Cane Holder Late 1800's 1910

  
This is a significant piece of Chinese export porcelain from the mid to late 1800's - 1910, decorated with famille enamels. The stylized lingzhi shaped openings feature vibrant blooming peonies. The ground is a yellow diaper of scrolls, a classic decoration in Chinese export porcelains especially on vases and canisters.

The dominant colors are yellow (jaune), rose, verte & a bit of bleau. This piece is uncommon in size, cylindrical, 18" tall and 8 " wide. There is a crack in the form of an irregular U.....

The left line continues to show a hairline down to the blue peony. The 2 ends of the U can be noticed along the rim app 4 apart; the U is app 5 1/2 deep. Please examine the interior wall photos that show exactly how the crack looks like. The left side of the U continues as a tight hairline ending on the blue peony app 7 from the rim - not visible in the interior wall. There is a clean small hole at the center of the well.

Maybe a cane or umbrella holder? This piece is structurally sound. This item is in the category "Antiques\Asian Antiques\China\Vases".
