A marvelous early Moriage, hand painted art vase standing 8 inches tall depicting a striking garden setting with pheasant style birds surrounded by water, more birds, and flowers. The scene appears on two sides of the vase.
This is a distinctive and well-crafted vase that displays fine attention to detail. In between the bird and garden scene is a crest like emblem with flowers and gold trimmed branching. The entire vase surface is decorated in multi colors, has the raised beading or moriage, and the gold enhancements. We have two identical vases, and this offering is for a single vase. There are marks under the bases, but to date we have not been able to identify them. One has a 21D stamped mark which most likely is a pattern or mold number.

There are raised Oriental symbols but both of these are different in appearance, perhaps the name of the person who decorated the vase.
The only note we make is of some minor crazing on the base, surrounding the markings. For certain, this vase is in fine, overall vintage condition and will not disappoint in artistry and design. |
