Beautiful Japanese Meiji (Late 19thc) Koransha Porcelain Vase with Two Kirins

19th century
Description

Stunning Japanese Meiji (late 19thC) Koransha porcelain vase decorated with two kirins, signed on the base with the orchid mark of the Fukugawa Koransha company. The bulbous body rising from a spreading foot to a waisted neck with a gilt everted rim, the sides finely painted in underglaze blue with two fierce kirin amid reishi-shaped clouds, with flames enameled in iron-red and heightened with gilt, the clouds heightened with gilt as well, small sections of clouds with gilt and enameled in white, the foot and neck each with a circumferential double circle, the base with the signature Fukagawa and orchid mark of Koransha. Measures ca. 30cm high x 25cm dia (widest part), weight 2.9kg.

Lovely original condition.

Fukagawa is the family name of the founder and owner of the Koransha company. The combination of the orchid mark of Koransha and signature Fukagawa sei/zo appears to have been used (as in this vase) until the company was split in 1889, after which the orchid mark started to appear alone in wares of the Koransha company.
