This 1870 porcelain vase, crafted by Minton(s), is a striking example of the Chinoiserie style, popular in the 19th century. The vase, which is shaped like three bamboo stalks, features a delicate green glaze with white relief detailing. It is a testament to the fascination with Eastern aesthetics that swept Europe during this period. The vase is currently held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
