Grand Scale Pair of 26" Chinese Export Blue and White Ceramic Obelisks

A pair of majestic, grand-scale ceramic obelisks standing at an impressive 26 inches tall. The obelisks are richly decorated with a dense, beautiful floral and foliate scrollwork in deep cobalt blue against a crisp white background. This Azulejo-inspired style evokes the grandeur of European pottery traditions.

Each piece showcases a decorative armorial crest on both the tapered obelisk and the square plinth base, adding a layer of noble, architectural interest and visual weight. At 26" in height, they command attention and create a powerful sense of symmetry when displayed as a pair.

• Set of two obelisks
• 26"H x 6"W
• China, mid to late 20th century
• Excellent vintage condition, no chips or cracks

Styling tips: these obelisks are incredibly versatile and would be an outstanding focal point in a variety of design aesthetics:

• Grandmillennial/Traditional: Pair them with dark wood furniture, gilded mirrors, and layered textiles for a rich, curated look.

• Coastal/Chinoiserie: Their blue and white palette is a natural fit for nautical or Chinoiserie-inspired rooms.

• Eclectic/Transitional: Use them to ground a modern space, providing a touch of vintage character and history against clean lines and contemporary art.
