The vases sit on waisted bronze bases on a square plan with scrolled carvings and four out-curled feet. The bodies of the vases feature a border of bronze gilded on each of the four sides, decorated with flowers. To the centre of each side is an enamel plaque with geometric patterns and flowers, all set on a turquoise ground. The vases have twin dragon-form handles in bronze, and are surmounted by waisted cube-form enamel panels decorated in a similar fashion to the main vase body.
