Gift of Mr. Augustus L. Searleexpand_more 32.47.1a,b
A climbing Chi carved in high relief and openwork serves as a handle on this slender vase. Similar feline creatures carved in high relief rim the neck and the remaining surfaces of the vase and create a lively surface decor. A small dog-like creature carved in three dimensions extends from the lower side of the vase and carries a small, gourd-shaped secondary vase.
