Hexagonal flower vase with magic fungus handles
This elegant vase’s elaborate decor, arranged in horizontal registers, follows archaic models but also incorporates contemporary motifs, such as the geometric diaper pattern with swastikas and the turbulent waves. Its two handles are intricately cast in the form of magic fungus, a symbol of longevity; their three-dimensional shape recalls similar images of magic fungus on contemporary jades.
