Bronze Cloisonné Hexagonal Bottle Vases (Pair) – Temple Office Ornaments

This pair of hexagonal bottle vases from the Tibetan Temple Collection brings the precision of geometry into dialogue with the softness of cloisonné enamel. Each vase is cast in old bronze, then finished on all six faces with enamelled patterns that echo classical Chinese motifs—subtle florals, scrolls, and repeating forms outlined in fine metal lines.

The hexagonal body offers multiple “fronts,” allowing the vases to look different depending on how they are turned. Their tall, slender necks and grounded bases give them a poised, architectural presence, making them ideal as framing elements on a console, sideboard, or altar table.

Used as a pair, they can stand empty as sculptural forms, hold dried or faux stems, or flank a central statue, incense burner, or offering bowl. In an office or study, they quietly signal an appreciation for craft and history; in a living room or worship hall, they help define a calm, intentional focal area.

Placement & care
