Hello Scott, Thank you for choosing Mearto for your online appraisal. Based on the images and information you provided, this item is: A White and Blue Chinese Fu Bat vase, 19th century. Fu Bat, also known as Fu Lions or Foo Dogs, are traditional Chinese guardian symbols often depicted in pairs to ward off negative energy and bring prosperity and protection. These symbols are associated with Chinese mythology and folklore, representing powerful and protective creatures. The white and blue color scheme is a classic and iconic combination in Chinese porcelain art. The blue glaze, typically cobalt blue, is applied to the white porcelain surface using intricate painting techniques. This blue-and-white color palette is not only visually striking but also holds historical importance, as it was introduced during the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368) and became a hallmark of Chinese porcelain. Good condition
