Add a touch of timeless Far Eastern luxury to your space with this magnificent antique-style Chinese double gourd (hulu) vase.

This exquisite piece features a traditional double gourd silhouette—a classic oriental shape representing longevity, prosperity, and good fortune. It is lavishly decorated using a combination of cloisonné and champlevé enamel work, with detailed brass wires outlining vibrant patterns against a dramatic, deep midnight-black background. 

The vase is split into two decorative tiers. The lower bulbous section displays a serene nature scene featuring a striking long-tailed parrot perched on a flowering branch surrounded by delicate cherry blossoms. The upper section complements the theme with a balanced composition of lush springtime flowers and foliage. Flanking the sides are two ornate, gilded dragon/phoenix openwork handles that lend a regal weight to its overall stance. The piece is crowned with its original matching domed lid, finished with a stylized, winding brass vine-stem finial.

Whether showcased on a mantle, in a curation cabinet, or on a traditional wooden display stand, this enameled metal vase serves as a stunning centerpiece that highlights the mastery of historic Asian metalwork.
