Blue and Green Vintage Chinese Ceramic Garden Stool
Chinese garden stools have a long history, dating back centuries, and were originally used in imperial gardens and scholar's courtyards. These stools were not only functional but also served as decorative elements, reflecting the owner's taste and status. The pierced designs, often incorporating auspicious symbols like coins, allowed for ventilation and added visual interest.
Over time, these garden stools became popular in Western gardens and homes, appreciated for their exotic appeal and versatility. The blue-green glaze, known as celadon or turquoise glaze, is a common characteristic of these stools, adding to their aesthetic value. The lion head decorations are also a traditional motif, symbolizing protection and strength.
