Chinese Blue and White Qilin Rouleau Vase. The porcelain potted into large cylindrical, thick and tall, wide body on shoulder, slender neck easing to form narrow opening, raised on round foot base slight concave. Hand painted ornamentations are rendered in clean white base color which contrast against blue color, depicted of mythical qilin seating surrounded with flaming vapors, tree and scrolling ruyi. Qilin are extraordinarily beautiful creatures, sparkling like gems and adorned in flames. With their scaly bodies and horned heads, they resemble Chinese dragons, and their tails are like lion. Qilin are thought to be a symbol of luck, good omens, protection, prosperity, success, and longevity by the Chinese. Whatever their special attraction, they always move gracefully and dazzle the mortals who see them.The underside unglazed, revealed the pale-creme ground revealed and dark greyish brown spotted firing marks and edge-cut foot rim.
