The small vase of slender form, with a tall, slightly tapered body, sharp shoulders, and a short, narrow neck opening to an everted mouth with a rolled rim, all set on a recessed foot. The elegant vase is decorated with a design of dense cascades of flowering wisteria descending from the neck of the vase, trailing over the shoulders, and down the body, tapering off to buds and vines towards the bottom third of the vase. The dense blooms of wisteria and meticulously painted in various colors of enamels and gilt with additional gilt highlights. Signed to the underside with a two character mark reading Gyokuzan, the artistic name of Chin Jukan XII (1835 - 1906). He is known to have used the Gyokuzan name from 1874 to 1897. The Chin Jukan lineage is one of the oldest Satsuma family owned kilns, with a history of over 400 years and 15 generations of master potters.

Large Japanese Satsuma Ceramic Vase Kinkozan
By Kinkozan
Located in Atlanta, GA
A large Japanese ceramic vase from the end of Meiji period circa 1890-1910s by Kinkozan (1645-1927). One of the largest studio manufacturers of the export ceramics at the time based in Kyoto. In the typical style of satsuma made at the turn of 20th century, the vase is elaborately decorated with a rather unusual kinran-de (gold paint) and green enamel highlight on a mottled brown background. The painterly decoration depicts a large seasonal floral arrangement in a circular fashion. Besides the obviously superb craftsmanship, what sets this particular vase apart from many lower quality and mass-produced pieces is its tone-on-tone color pallet that is visually somber and the small and sensitive details that heralds the change of the seasons. When the viewer goes beyond the first casual glimpse of the blossom and foliage, one would notice that on the edges of certain leaves as well as along the stalks, there accumulates a very thin layer of the white dust that represents the frost. The flower in bloom are chrysanthemums. Despite of being splendid, they are the messengers of the autumn. The large lotus leaf was subtly rendered in a bended and slightly withered manner, just past its prime. Although the lotus is still in bloom, the prominent seed pod indicates it may be the last for the season. The sentimental capture of the change of the seasons is not unusual in Japanese art. This vase poetically represents such a subtle transition from summer to fall, perhaps depicting the very first frost. The neck of the vase is also slightly unusual with two rolled rings...
