Description
Unfortunately, I do not have much information about these vases. They have been in my family for over a hundred years, but I don't know any details of where they came from, age, etc. They have small wooden pedestals, and the designs are mirrored. They are in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks. It is my understanding that my uncle believes that they are 16th century Ming Dynasty.
