Porcelain Introduction: this plum vase features a typical Yuan Dynasty plum vase shape with a small mouth, short neck, full shoulders, a tapering belly, and a ring foot. Its lines are smooth, plump, and heavy, with a natural transition from the shoulders to the belly, and a slender, restrained lower belly. The overall proportions are well-balanced, fully embodying the calm and stable charm of large-sized porcelain vases from the Yuan Dynasty. The outer side of the vase mouth is painted with scroll patterns, and the neck is decorated with openwork panels of interlocking floral patterns, with graceful and agile lines. The main body of the vase takes cloud-dragon patterns as the core decoration: the dragon figures are vigorous in posture, with powerful claws and meticulously carved scales, surrounded by auspicious cloud patterns. The blue-and-white color is rich and bright, showing the typical rust spots and blurring effects of Su Ma Li Qing pigment. The bold and free brushwork vividly demonstrates the majesty and dominance of dragon patterns in the Yuan Dynasty. The area near the foot is adorned with deformed lotus petal patterns, forming a hierarchical echo with the upper decorations. The overall composition is intricate yet not chaotic, with clear distinction between primary and secondary elements.
收藏统计:类似同款元青花龙纹梅瓶的存世量极为稀少，全球范围内可考证的完整器仅十余件，且主要分为馆藏与民间传世两类：馆藏10件，分别收藏于故宫博物院、上海博物馆、南京博物院、英国大英博物馆、土耳其托普卡帕宫等国内外顶级文博机构，均为考古出土或传世递藏的国宝级文物，禁止流通。
According to collection statistics, the number of existing complete pieces of similar Yuan dynasty blue-and-white plum vases with dragon patterns is extremely rare. There are only about a dozen verifiable complete pieces worldwide, which are mainly divided into two categories: museum collections and privately passed-down pieces.Complete museum-collected pieces: There are about 8-10 pieces, collected in top domestic and foreign cultural and museum institutions such as the Palace Museum, Shanghai Museum, Nanjing Museum, the British Museum in the UK, and Topkapi Palace in Turkey. All of them are national treasure-level cultural relics unearthed from archaeological excavations or passed down through generations, and are prohibited from circulation.
民间/流通件：民间传世的完整元青花龙纹梅瓶不足5件，且多为海外私人收藏；拍卖市场中出现的多为残件、修复件或缺盖器，这类器物存世量约20余件，大多是碎拼修复品，完整度极低。此件“元青花云龙纹梅瓶 ”于2025年5月今成国际集团在香港一位古董商手上购买所得，属于海外私人收藏，后回流至香港。
Private/circulating pieces: there are fewer than 5 complete Yuan dynasty blue-and-white plum vases with dragon patterns passed down among the people, most of which are in overseas private collections. Those appearing in the auction market are mostly fragments, repaired pieces or those missing lids. There are about more than 20 such artifacts, most of which are pieced and repaired, with extremely low integrity. This "Yuan Dynasty Blue-and-White Plum Vase with Cloud and Dragon Patterns" was purchased by Jincheng International Group at a high price from an antique dealer in Hong Kong in May 2025, and it belongs to an overseas private collection that has been returned to Hong Kong.
收藏价值：全球完整器仅十余件，馆藏占比超七成，流通市场中完整器近乎绝迹，残件或修复件也属拍场焦点，稀缺性奠定了其顶级收藏地位。
Rarity in existence: there are only over ten complete pieces worldwide, with more than 70% in museum collections. Complete pieces are almost extinct in the circulation market, and even fragments or restored pieces are the focus of auction venues. Such scarcity has established its top-level collection status.
