A finely formed Chinese peachbloom-glazed porcelain willow-leaf vase, measuring approximately 7.125 inches (18.1 cm) high.

The slender vase is covered in a richly variegated copper-red / peachbloom glaze, displaying attractive mottling in shades of deep red, pink, and subtle greenish-gray tones. The glaze shows particularly interesting variation around the shoulder and neck, characteristic of the visual appeal associated with peachbloom-type wares.

The base is recessed and glazed in a pale bluish-white tone, bearing a six-character underglaze-blue Da Qing Kangxi Nian Zhi (大清康熙年制) mark. The exterior of the foot is unglazed and shows visible turning marks.

Date: Likely late Qing Dynasty to Republic period, in the Kangxi style. The Kangxi mark is presented as an apocryphal/revival mark; no claim is made that the vase dates to the Kangxi reign.

Dimensions: Approx. 7.125 in. (18.1 cm) high.

An attractive example of the Chinese revival tradition of Kangxi peachbloom wares, with an elegant willow-leaf form and unusually lively glaze variation.
