A very rare shipwreck transitional blue and white floral sleeve vase. It was finely decorated with magnolia and bamboo sprays in an attractive underglaze blue tone. Although it was recovered from shipwreck, it is in flawless condition. Usually only a very small percentage of items recovered from a shipwreck is in perfect condition. Date: transitional period, 17th century; Height: 20.9cm; Condition: flawless but probably stabilized by chemicals after recovery from shipwreck.
