A neighbor of my father gave him the vases as a gift, I do not know the provenance.
Bronze Chinese vases with Mythical beast loop handles and rings. Archaistic decoration inspired by bronzes of the Song dynasty ( China ,960 - 1279 ). These are later copy's and not the original one's from the period. Patin, corrosion and the casting of the bronze is not correct. Chinese art is copied a lot and these are examples of that. As an decorative pair of vases it is possible to sell them for around estimation.There is a market for good copy's. Text is in old language and is hard to read.
