Chinese PEKING GLASS VASES WITH HIGH RELIEF DECORATION OF FROGS AND WATER LILLIES. A pair of baluster form vases with applied frogs perched on lily pads spiraling around the vases.
H. 8 1/2", Diam. 5 1/2"
Pictures and words don't do these striking yellow peking glass vessels justice. A spectacular pair rescued from a home filled with ancient treasures from Sotheby's and Christies in Greenwich, CT. The owner was a renowned collector who abandoned her home after it was damaged in a storm and moved to a hotel for the last years of her life, leaving behind jewels, rare Chinese porcelain, valuable art and fine antiques.
One frog on a rim with barely evident chips to the foot, slight scratches to the bases
