Vintage Large Blue and White Porcelain Chrysanthemum Sphere with Brass Dragon Stand

This grand Chinoiserie centerpiece features a substantial, round porcelain globe completely wrapped in a dense, hand-detailed pattern of blooming chrysanthemums and lush botanical foliage rendered in deep underglaze cobalt blue over a clean white background. The heavy ceramic orb rests seamlessly on a separate, custom-fitted solid brass tripod display pedestal. The stand is sand-cast with three sweeping legs formed into traditional scrolling imperial dragons complete with stylized scales and architectural feet.
