Antique Japanese Earthenware Vase Signed

Well because of this vase I am now hooked on Japanese earthenware. When I saw this vase it took my breath away – my heart started to pound. When I got closer to it and ran my hands over the lushes glaze I fell in love. It is positively wonderful and if you are looking at it you probably already know it. It is a large Japanese earthenware vase from the Meiji period dating from the late 19th century into the early 20th century. Oribe is the style of the work and glaze. On the bottom it is signed by the artist Gorosuke - who is quite famous as I understand. This stunning vase has so much style and believe it or not so much form and movement. The color combination of the celadon and dark green jade greens against the off white and slight grayish veining is just a masterful contrast. I love the fact that it is signed by the artist. It is a large impressive size measuring 10 3/8" at highest with a base diameter of 5 5/8" and the top is 6 ¼" in diameter. The condition overall is very very good. It has only a few pits which where obviously done in the firing. My feeling is this – I can just see a room full of arts and crafts, Stickley furniture and this vase as a major accent in a room. I don't know why it fits so well with craftsmen's design but it does. Elegant, opulent, quite heavy, in good condition, signed by the artist – what more could we ask for!!!!!!! Striving For Excellence It isn't brilliance or just getting the breaks, It is consistent attention to & honest respect for the Customer.
