Pair of large vases with dragons, 20th century

Large vases with lids in blue and white enamels, under glaze, and decorated with mythological beings or animals in relief. The body is oval, supported on a foot, under an elongated neck and a semicircular lid with a wide flange. 

On the main body, there are lobed cartouches that, on one side, represent a phoenix, and on the other, a dragon on a background of waves, or clouds in flames. The rest is covered with a background of scrolls and Chinese dogs holding pearls. Between the parts there are cartouches of Buddhist emblems, geometric borders or arabesques. On the foot there are representations of ducks in a pond and on the neck scenes with pairs of birds in cartouches surrounded by flower arrangements.
