Pair Of Imposing Chinese Imperial Style Cloissone Cranes

£65,000    $85,403    €77,006
A pair of double Crane Censors. Late Qing dynasty, circa 1900 Each group superbly modelled as a pair of large and smaller cranes standing on an elaborate champlevé and cloisonné enamel rockwork-form base encircled by crested waves, standing on tall legs naturalistically detailed with cylindrical bands, the smaller crane with one leg slightly bent, their long necks gracefully curved as the smaller crane looks backward towards the taller crane which grasps a double-peach sprig in its long pointed beak, the bodies and feathers intricately and realistically rendered primarily in black and white enamels within gilt outline, the red crests and blue beaks, their wings forming a cover for the hollow body.
