Ivory Tusk Vases

Cleveland Museum of Art

Two tall, narrow vases, titled "Ivory Tusk Vases", are displayed on dark wooden stands with gold accents. The vases are made of ivory and are cylindrical in shape, with a slightly flared top and bottom. The vase on the left features a design of two people standing on a rocky surface, with tree branches and flowers. The vase on the right depicts a group of people in robes. The dark wooden stands have a hexagonal base with four legs, a flat top, and a small drawer on each side. The stands are decorated with gold accents, including swirling patterns and small oval-shaped inlays. The background is a gradient that transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
