Elegant Nippon 8 3/4" Vase, Colorful Hibiscus and Leaves, Gold Overlay, Beading and Tracery

Antiques : Japanese Porcelain And Ceramics : Nippon

 

The colors and detail work on this vase are really lovely. The background has blended, soft washes of lemon yellow and powder blue. Elegant flowers in shades of cotton candy pink and lavender are framed by vein-covered leaves in shades of amber and moss-green. Two areas - one near the neck and one of the leaves are done in a gold leaf overlay. All flowers, leaves and stems our outlined and accented with delicate gold trim. The flowers and overlay areas also have delicate gold beading.

This vase stands 8 3/4" tall and is 4" at widest part. In very good condition with no chips, nicks, cracks or hairlines. There are two small dimples/flaws in the fabric which occurred during the manufacturing process (one is on the back on the right side of the pink flower; the other is on the front and immediately below the gold leaf). Gold wear to the rim, handle and foot is minor - ca. 10-15%. Please visit me again when you're traveling down Ruby Lane!
