Collectible Vintage Chinese Cinnabar Lacquer Baluster Vase, dating back to the Cultural Revolution era (circa 1966–1976). This exceptional piece stands out from common floral cinnabar ware because it features a deeply carved central medallion depicting a Cultural Revolution worker or youth leader standing proudly in a stylized landscape of mountains and trees.
The vase is meticulously crafted using traditional techniques, featuring heavily layered red cinnabar lacquer carved over a sturdy brass body. The neck, shoulders, and base are adorned with ornate scrolling floral motifs and traditional foliage. The interior and lip reveal a glossy, vibrant royal blue enamel lining framed by an exposed brass rim at the top.
Good condition, one notable cosmetic defect. Visible chip in the carved red lacquer along the upper rim (as shown in photo)
- 6"H x 4"W
Rest of the Piece: The main body of the vase remains beautifully preserved
