Subject:Xuande Vase - mythical creature
Posted By: Chris Thu, Dec 14, 2017 IP: 180.183.98.212

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew what creature is being depicted in this vase. Its marked as a Xuande piece but I don't know if its authentic.

Hi, this animal is a Baku. The Baku eats nightmares. It also protects from evil spirits. Thank you for posting
