As part of our Japanese works of art collection we are delighted to offer this finely decorated Meiji Period (1868-1912), Satsuma vase stemming from the highly regarded Kinkozan studios in Kyoto. This large vase is beautifully decorated with opposing heart shaped panels sat within a vibrantly gilded cobalt blue body, the first panel houses a flock of small songbirds in flight beneath a sumptuously decorated hanging ikebana display, the reverse decorated with a pair of geese within a floral landscape aside a waterside setting, each panel painstakingly stippled with fine gilt highlights, the vase houses a pair of elephant head ring handles each side of the gilded main body, the underside of this beautiful vase still carries the original company label as well as a clean untouched gilt signature seal for Kinkozan of Kyoto. A perfect addition to any serious Japanese Satsuma collection.
