Adam Friedrich von Löwenfinck's "Double-gourd vase" (one of a pair) is a porcelain vase that was created between 1737 and 1747. The vase is decorated with a yellow glaze and features delicate floral motifs in blue, red, and green, set against white panels. This piece exemplifies the European fascination with Chinese porcelain during the 18th century, known as Chinoiserie. It is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
