CHOICE Taisho Era Cloisonné Bottle Form 6 Vase brass mouth & foot PERFECT

  

ANTIQUE JAPANESE CLOISONNE BOTTLE FORM VASE. A treasure from my personal collection of traditional Asian decorative arts.

A tour de force of classic form and premier quality. Stellar early 20th century craftsmanship in the demanding process - evidenced by use of fine copper wires forming cells, precisely controlled colors and uniform polished surface.

The artisan achieved both technical excellence and beauty. Elegantly proportioned with bulbous body, gently waisted tall neck with brass mouth, ring foot. Exquisite opaque enamel decoration includes flowers, leafy scrolling vines, butterflies, paneled neck and cell borders. Maintained for a century in prized perfect condition! Professionally cleaned and hand polished to uniform sheen revealing copper wires.

6" high, 3.1" max.
