The vases have high domed lids, each with an onion-shaped finial.
They are decorated in underglaze blue, iron-red, aubergine, yellow and black with three large panels of peony, chrysanthemum, prunus and peach.
The shoulders have a band of kidney-shaped panels of similar flowers, below two registers of running foliage on the collars and necks, 60 cm.
A surface crowded with designs was typical of Ko Imari, or old Imari, wares.
