A trio of Chinese style blue and white porcelain vessels, each featuring underglaze cobalt blue decoration over a crackle glazed ground. The group includes a large lidded kamcheng style urn? of bulbous form, featuring ornate scroll handles and a domed lid with a bud finial; the central body is decorated with a continuous landscape scene depicting deer and birds amongst mountains. Also included is an ovoid ginger jar decorated with repeating ‘Shuangxi’ (Double Happiness) characters set against a dense foliate scroll ground, complete with a flat circular cover. The third piece is a square-sectioned tapered vase with a flared rim and stepped pedestal base, featuring panels of birds perched on flowering branches. The square vase bears a mark to the base consisting of two lines of stylized characters in a blue underglaze, which are not legible as a name. All pieces exhibit a pale celadon-tinted or greyish-white crackle glaze finish.
