These are late-Qing, Guangxu-period (1875-1908) baluster vases with famille rose "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" motifs and molded applications of immature dragons (Chilong) at the shoulders and Buddhistic lion handles on the necks. They have apocryphal Ming Chenghua reign marks on the bases. Despite the interior chip off one foot, the pair should be worth at least US$750-1000, possibly more, on a good day at the auction house.
Best regards,
Bill H.
