What the image shows
A deep red vase with a glossy finish and small handles on either side.
Generated by LinkedCulture from the photograph alone, without the museum’s catalogue text (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct), and not yet reviewed by a person. It describes the picture, not the object’s history, and it is not part of the museum’s record.
From the Cleveland Museum of Art record
This vase is copper red in color at the top and becomes purple closer to the bottom, not unlike a Chinese transformation or flambé glaze with mottling and dripping of the glaze. The lip of the vase and much of the lion-head designs remain white. On the box lid, the color of the glaze is called shinsha , which is often glossed as copper red or oxblood, or sometimes cinnabar. Here, it is meant to refer to a Qing-dynasty glazing technique developed in an effort to reproduce a red glaze used during the reign of the Xuande emperor (1426–35) of the Ming dynasty. This vase has lion heads for “ears."
