Monumental Meiji Period 3-Part Japanese Satsuma Vase, Cover, And Stand
Shipping/Handling: $85 USD
Insurance: Included in shipping
Price for shipping to USA
Of monumental proportions, this exceptional Japanese Satsuma 3-part vase, cover, and stand is resplendently decorated in raised enamels richly detailed and highlighted in gilding. The cover features a male Shishi or Lion Dog knop; the vase has prominent Lion Dog handles with high relief moriage work depicting Samurai and Immortals in a garden landscape setting. The stand is raised on five lion paw feet with lion head capitals supporting an ogee platform.
The vase is in excellent age related condition with no major cracks or repairs. There has been wear and overpainting to the gilding on the handles, knop, and rim of the vase. There is a tight surface glaze-line inside the cover, and there is restoration to one of the tails of the lion dog handles. Regardless of these minor signs of age and wear, this is a magnificent show-stopping piece of majestic proportions. It is quite heavy and looks amazing on a carved Chinese table.
Size: 37” Height x 19” Width (handle to handle).
