Description
* CHINA, 19th century
A pair of cloisonné enamel candlesticks depicting cranes with long, slender necks, holding lotus flowers in their beaks. The birds rest on bases shaped like domed water-lily leaves. Their plumage is finely detailed in polychrome enamels against a white background; the removable wings reveal compartments that serve as incense burners.
